Developed by Cortazu. Independently tested.
Barrier CT Pro™ brings together rain protection, breathability, and a construction chosen for the outdoors. Below, you can explore the measurements and reports behind Barrier CT Pro™, starting with waterproofness.
Proven performance. Twice the industry standard.
- How it works. The laboratory steadily increases water pressure against the fabric to measure its resistance to water penetration.
- The result. At 61,200 mm, no water had passed through. The test ended at the equipment’s maximum pressure.
- Check the evidence. Explore the independent laboratory’s report and the test methods below.
Then we gave it to people who'd notice if it failed.
Every Cortazu product is field-tested by specialists before it reaches you.
Everything you'd ask before buying. Answered up front.
Four tests, one fabric, all four at once. A construction that clears three and misses one doesn't carry the mark. Here is what gets measured, how each test is run, what we require, and what came back.
Waterproofness How well the fabric keeps water from getting through, even in heavy downpours. 61,200+ mm
Water repellency How well water beads up and rolls off the outside instead of soaking in. Grade 5
Breathability How well heat and sweat can escape, helping you stay comfortable when moving. 27,685 g/m²/24h
Abrasion resistance How well the fabric stands up to rubbing and wear from (back)packs, rocks and repeated use. 50,000+ rubs
Read the test, not the label.
Barrier CT Pro™ is developed with specialists to our own specifications. Independently tested, with all results published transparently to read.
