Hyalite Peak Oyl Elite Four Seasons+ Sleeping Pad (POE) Regular (Color : Solar Orange)

A four plus season sleeping pad designed with the coldest conditions in mind.

Features

• Bio-mapped Aerotherm insulation provides excellent insulation from heat loss.
• Environmentally conscious Palm-Oyl based foam core.
• Abrasion resistant 50 Denier DRS recycled P.E.T. nylon fabric.
• Weight and pack size reducing diamond die cut pattern.
• Insulated raised rails help keep you sleeping comfortably on the pad through the night.
• Anti-fungal treatment to the foam inhibits bacteria growth.
• Compression strap, repair kit, and stuff sack included.
• Designed for temperatures as low as -5F (-20C). These pads are made for pushing to the mountain’s summit.

Materials
50 denier DRS recycled P.E.T.: This fabric is our most eco-friendly, high performing, and innovative fabric. The great attributes of this fabric were discovered while working with the Bio Mimicry Institute. This fabric has better U.V. resistance than other fabrics its weight and has tensil strength attributes similar to that of a spider web. We use this with our highest performance sleeping pads and lightweight cycling bags. By using this fabric each of our sleeping pads saves 4-16 plastic bottles that would otherwise be in a landfill.
The durability of our 50 denier recycled P.E.T. fabric is increased further by adding a diamond ripstop weave (DRS) which helps deflect sharp points from puncturing the material.

Aerotherm Insulation
AEROTHERM is a new cutting edge green nanotechnology thermal insulation that can be used in everyday products. AEROTHERM’s performance is based on the unique properties of Aerogel which is the main component of AEROTHERM. Aerotherm will protect from extreme cold to extreme heat conditions.
Composed of over 90% air, aerogel is a highly effective insulator with the lowest thermal conductivity of any solid; Aerotherm uses silica aerogel in producing a strong, durable, and flexible material that is 2 to 8 times more effective than traditional thermal insulation.

Bio-Mapped Insulation
Bio-mapped insulation is a technique that Hyalite Equipment incorporates into our sleeping pad design. By taking advantage of this construction we are able to create pads that are lighter weight and pack smaller but have great insulating qualities.
This is a technique where the insulation is strategically placed in the most important areas of the sleeping pad to maximize its value. In places where insulation is not as important it is decreased which allows for lighter weight and a smaller pack size.
We test r-value on our sleeping pads from head to toe so they perform well in the conditions that they are designed for. You will see that we display a range of r-values for several of our pads. The range in r-value is due to the Bio-mapped insulation techniques.
For women specific pads extra steps are taken in the Bio-mapping process. More support in the hip area and insulation in the foot area. We do this because it has been proven that women loose more heat from their extremities.
