Our materials

Materials shape how a product performs. At Nordic Drift, we choose durable fabrics that balance strength, light weight, and long-lasting quality. Every material is selected to handle daily use while staying comfortable and reliable. No unnecessary features. No compromises on function. Built to last. Made to explore.

GRS / RCS

  • The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) is a voluntary product standard for tracking and verifying the content of recycled materials in a final product.
  • The Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) is used as a chain of custody standard to track recycled raw materials through the supply chain.

The GRS/RCS logo ensures the materials used in the product are genuinely recycled.

Difference between standards
The RCS and GRS are the same, except that the GRS is a more rigorous standard; in the GRS, there is a higher minimum content percentage (50%) and additional processing requirements that must be met (social, environmental, and chemical). So GRS items have a higher recycled content than RCS items.

Nordic Drift is an XD Connects brand, our company is certified by Control Union, CU 1162221

IP rating guide

The IP rating indicates how well a product is protected against solids and water.

 

Example: IP67

Explained: I = ingress, P = protection, 6 = solid, 7 = water

Solids

X – NOT TESTED

O – NO PROTECTION

1 – Protected against ingress of solid particles greater than 50 mm

2 – Protected against ingress of solid particles greater then 12,5 mm

3 – Protected against ingress of solid particles greater then 2,5 mm

4 – Protected against ingress of solid particles greater than 1 mm

5 – Dust protected

6 – Dust tight

 

Water

X – NOT TESTED

O – NO PROTECTION

1 – Protected against vertically falling water drops. Tested for 10 mins.

2 – Protected against vertically falling water drops at an angle up to 15°

3 Protected against water sprayed at an angle up to 60°

4Protected against rain or splashes from any direction

5Protects against low-pressure water jets from any direction

6Protects against strong water jets or heavy rain

7Protects against temporary immersion (up to 1m for 30 min)

8Protects against continuous, deeper immersion (up to 3m depth)

Reduced Plastic Packaging

Packaging, reduced to essentials.

We minimise plastic wherever possible and use it only when required to protect the product in transit. Every packaging component is evaluated for function, not excess.

Less material. Same protection.
