Yeti produces in Germany. The small factory is located in the Saxon Görlitz on the bank of the Neiße. At this place, first-class cloths have been woven and fulled for centuries, at last the “VEB Volltuch“ has coloured FDJ (organisation for teenagers in the GDR)-shirts and “Marmor jeans (stone washed jeans)“ here. Nowadays, eight Yeti employees produce about 10000 down sleeping bags per year, which rank among the best of the world.

Prior to delivery, the quality of the downs is checked regularly at laboratories and the textiles pass through external quality checks. However, the sense of longstanding employees such as Birgit, Sophia, Ramona and Ingrid is irreplaceable. Each down filling, each square metre of textile passes through their hands. They see, feel and smell if maturity, bulking power, mixing ratio, softness and odor comply with the demands on a Crystal Down. With their eyes closed they identify a LightyGram-tissue, with open ones errors in a AquaProPlus-cover. They do not pardon sloppiness, their judgment is merciless. For them, quality is not just a question of guidelines, but a also a question of honor.

LightyGram
Ripstop-tissue of nylon thread, ten times thinner than a human hair. Very soft anddense, therefore water resistant and breathing, at the same time tear-proof. A thread of a length from Berlin to Görlitz would be sufiicient to weave one square metre Lighty-Gram; its weight would be 25 grams.Used in the Companyon line/Passion Sleeping Bags. 

The secret of lightness is based on the 1,000 kilometres yarn holding the downs together. This yarn has the size of a twentieth of a human hair, these 1,000 kilometres of yarn weigh only 140 grammes.

Nevertheless, the airy fabric proves astonishingly tearproof. And it guarantees that Companyon products are waterproof, wind-resistent and breathable. In the Passion-One sleeping bag for instance, 35,000 downs with a diameter of about 4 cm make sure that your body is always well tempered. Fluffed up to 690 grammes with just a few more downs, you will survive in it even a night of up to minus seven degrees centigrade.
