The NeverRest Worker’s Uniform
The entire gear was developed by a team of six engineers and designers who conducted extensive research to identify the main challenges with the equipment currently used in such expeditions, proposing new solutions. These include: the Dhala cranial protection, by Patricia Bové; the Dhala-Sürya facial protection, by Vanina Gil; the Sut suit, by Laura Palacios; the Oxei oxygen mask, by Lola Bofill; the Khangsar rescue backpack, by Enric Bruguera; and the Sagarmatha boots, by Paula Sánchez.
The potential success of the project has relied on the collaboration with experts and companies, allowing for a thorough investigation into both the mountaineering world and high-altitude textiles. This ensures that each component of the gear meets the highest standards of safety, functionality, and durability under extreme conditions. The prototypes presented below were developed in accordance with industry standards, considering the feasibility of future mass production.
