WHY WE CHOOSE VX21 XPAC FOR YOUR SAFETY

PERFORMANCE MEETS SUSTAINABILITY

At Cascade First Aid, we don't just create first aid kits; we engineer lifesaving equipment built to withstand the harshest conditions. That's why we specifically selected VX21 Xpac for our Traverse first aid kit and other products in our line.

WHAT IS VX21 XPAC?

VX21 Xpac is the world's most popular laminated pack fabric, recognized by outdoor enthusiasts and professionals for its exceptional performance characteristics. It features a multi-layered construction that delivers unmatched benefits for emergency preparedness equipment:

• 210-denier nylon face fabric with DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment
• Distinctive X-PLY® reinforcement at 22° angles for superior tear resistance
• Waterproof polyester film layer for complete moisture protection
• 50-denier polyester taffeta backing for enhanced durability and stitch holding

PERFORMANCE ADVANTAGES

WATERPROOF PROTECTION

Your emergency supplies are too important to risk water damage. VX21 Xpac provides superior waterproof protection with a 200+ PSI rating, ensuring your critical medical supplies stay dry even in the wettest conditions you might encounter on the trail. The specialized construction prevents moisture absorption, keeping the bag lightweight even when exposed to rain or snow.

EXCEPTIONAL DURABILITY

As backcountry explorers ourselves, we understand the punishment outdoor equipment takes. VX21 Xpac delivers:

• Superior tear resistance - The X-PLY® fiber reinforcement distributes stress across the fabric, preventing tears from spreading
• Exceptional abrasion resistance - The 210-denier face fabric stands up to rough surfaces and repeated use
• Structural stability - The laminated construction maintains shape without adding unnecessary weight
• UV resistance - Protection against degradation from extended sun exposure

LIGHTWEIGHT PERFORMANCE

At just 6 oz per square yard, VX21 Xpac achieves the perfect balance between durability and weight savings. For outdoor adventurers counting every ounce, this translates to carrying robust protection without unnecessary burden.
