Watershed Drybags Touts Material Innovation in Waterproof Bags

Watershed Drybags, a manufacturer of airtight, fully submersible and waterproof drybags for all outdoor pursuits, unveiled a new material technology that is now available on all of its recreational drybags. The Kryptothane Plus material follows two years of development and testing. Also, for the first time in seven years, the brand is also introducing three new colors: safety orange, royal purple and smoke green.

Kryptothane Plus represents a leap forward in durability, performance and aesthetic appeal. The foundation of this cutting-edge material is an 840 denier nylon base fabric, chosen for its exceptional strength and resilience. Building upon this robust foundation, Watershed employs an advanced extrusion process on both sides, utilizing pigmented polyurethane. The result is a coating that not only boasts increased thickness but also exhibits enhanced resistance to UV rays to ensure longevity and reliability in the harshest outdoor environments. One of the standout features of Kryptothane Plus is its unique embossing process. Through the use of a specialized roller process, Watershed achieves a balanced, grippy coating that enhances the overall functionality of the material. This embossing not only contributes to improved grip but also adds a distinctive texture that sets Kryptothane Plus apart from other materials on the market.

“Founded on a mission to craft USA-made, durable, waterproof bags that protect and keep outdoor adventurers’ gear safe and dry, this material launch is a leap forward to ensure durability for all outdoor adventures,” said Eric Revels, CEO of Watershed. “This proprietary material recipe coupled with our new colors shows Watershed continues to innovate and keep up with athletes pushing boundaries.”
