A High Performance Marine Partnership
Nikwax has partnered with Gill Marine in its first dedicated marine collaboration.
Designed to withstand the harshest offshore conditions, the Gill OS1 Ocean system uses Nikwax Direct.Dry®– our factory‑applied, PFAS‑free Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment. This provides a combination of high‑performance waterproof protection and sustainable material innovation, meeting the growing demand for professional‑grade gear with reduced environmental impact.
Learn more about how this this marine‑industry first partnership with Gill Marine came to be.
The Gill OS1 Ocean System travelled to 79°N with Sailing Yacht Florence, where it was pushed to the extreme over 5,000 Arctic miles.
Watch Maddie Haywood from Gill’s Product Development Team carried out a full post‑expedition retest to assess performance, durability, and long‑term protection.
