Deuter has been a member of the FWF since August 2011 and is committed to the strict lines of labour guidelines set by this independent, non-profit organisation, thanks to its conscious implementation of fair (proper) working and production conditions.

All Deuter products without PFC from 2020

From the summer of 2020, all Deuter products will be PFC-free, which contributes to both the good of our planet and the health of people. PFCs are poly-fluorinated compounds used in water-repellent treatments. From 2020 onwards, Deuter will only use DWR (water-resistant water-repellent coatings), many of which are derived from renewable raw materials. They are applied to the outer surface of fabrics to prevent water penetration. Simply put, it will provide the same level of water resistance but with much better environmental performance.

While most of Deuter's products are PFC-free, considering its wide range of products, you realise that it takes time to implement it in all of its products - to ensure that its functionality and quality is not compromised. In mid-2018, Deuter stopped using PFC-coated materials in its production facilities and by the summer of 2020, this transition will be completed across its entire collection.

In 2015 Deuter was awarded the FWF Best Practice Award
