Corium+® is a highly versatile leather technology, created to strengthen one of the most frequently used materials.

 

The innovative solution of Corium+® Smart Leather adds protection against the elements to the already appreciated protective characteristics of leather. This transforms any type of garment, apparel or any other product constructed with this leather technology, into a fully waterproof, windproof and breathable product, while retaining the comfort and protection that leather is known for. This allows for the product to be used year round. One-leather. All-weather.

Corium+® combines a micro-perforated leather layer with different layers and membrane to enhance these features.

LEATHER. EXCELLENT AND SUSTAINABLE CHOICE

Leather is the oldest material used by man for clothing and protection.

Motorcycles and leather apparel have always been inextricably linked and still remains nowadays one of the first and only choice for many riders. The main reasons are:

· Resistance to abrasion
· Ergonomy
· Increased sensation of protection

All leathers used on Corium+® technology are treated using the latest and most environmental-friendly tanning methods.

They are completely free of harmful substances such as Chromium 6 and PFOA/PFOS, and they are closely processed and controlled to fulfil REACH regulations.

CORIUM+® THE ADDED BENEFITS

Leather on its own is not durably waterproof which makes it at times an inconvenient choice of material in certain regions/climates.

 

Corium+® Smart Leather is a waterproof, windproof and breathable leather which combines the oldest material used by man with the latest in leather processing and material lamination technology to offer the ultimate smart solution.

COMFORT PERFORMANCE STUDY

Corium+® products (green and red line)

 

• During the 60 minutes of High Activity Period, the Corium+® Smart Leather behave similarly to the best and most efficient laminated fabrics on the market.

 

• High measures of evaporative cooling are reached. The user is more comfortable in this condition.

 

• Between 90 and 120 minutes after the High Activity Period is finished, the user and/or product is completely dry thanks to these evaporative properties.

Standard coated, non-perforated leather (black discontinue line)

 

• Upon entering the period of high activity the standard coated, non-perforated leather reaches its maximum point of Heat Loss and stays on that value for up to 3 ½ hours.

 

• The product is not breathable and avoids proper evaporative cooling.

 

• The user sweats and remains sweated for a long period once test is finished.

SEAM CONSTRUCTION

All apparel constructed under the Corium+® process is fully waterproof to the EN-14360 thanks to the membrane properties, and the seam construction process.

All seam tape is applied under strict process control and strictly following seam preparation specifications

All seams which can allow water to enter the inner garment and reach the user are fully seam-taped
