The Diamondown clothing system is made from McCullough\u2019s patented Carbtex Fiber used for clothing and thermal shielding. This technology blocks conductive and convective heat, as well as radiant energy transfer, and doubles the thermal resistance of any other polymer or natural product insulation.<\/p>\n

Testing of the product was conducted in Auburn\u2019s polymer and fiber engineering facilities, under the direction of David M. Hall.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are honored to receive such an award,\u201d said McCullough. \u201cWe tested the product with hunters, military officers, skiers and mushers in the famous Alaskan Iditarod . . . they were all astonished by its quality, durability and comfort.\u201d<\/p>\n

McCullough has previously been recognized with advanced material technology awards for Curlon aircraft insulation and NuGard cut-resistant hand and arm protection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
