Klymit is a noble gas technology company based in Ogden, Utah, near the U.S. headquarters of Salomon, Atomic, Descente, and other outdoor industry leaders. Klymit develops and licenses its noble-gas-based, variable insulation technologies to companies in a variety of industries.
Klymit incorporated in April 2007 and was founded by R. Nathan Alder, while he was a student at Brigham Young University. While scuba diving in Brazil, Nate learned that divers use noble gases in dry suits to enable them to say under frigid waters longer. As a snowboard instructor and avid outdoor enthusiast, Nate asked, “Why can’t this concept be leveraged in other industries needing better insulation capabilities?” From that point, Nate began recruiting a team that could build a product and a business around this idea. His goal for the company: Become the world-leader in noble gas technology.
The Klymit technology allows users to adjust the amount of insulation in their product at the touch of a button. Klymit is applying its technology to a number of different products ranging from ski jackets and boots to military uniforms and camping equipment.
The company has already received a warm industry reception, with industry leaders dubbing Klymit technology, “The Holy Grail of Insulation™.” With its game-changing technology, Klymit is transforming the world of insulation and is interested in partners who share the vision for a Klymit-Kontrolled™ outdoor experience. Isn’t it about time You Kontrol the Elements™?
