Indomitable strength, resilience and surprising elegance. The emperor penguin thrives in the harsh Antarctic and became the inspiration for EMPORIUM – the family of KILPI synthetic insulation fillings.
We designed it with one clear goal: to give you warmth and comfort so you can enjoy winter to the fullest.
The basis of thermal insulation is air trapped between the fibres of the filling. It helps reduce the loss of body heat and protects you from the cold.
EMPORIUM uses this principle through synthetic fibres that deliver thermal comfort without the use of animal down.
Nature as a model,
technology as a tool!
Thanks to new cutting-edge technology, Kilpi is entering a new era of outdoor clothing. The result is a filling that is:
- ultralight, yet exceptionally warm,
- resistant to cold and moisture – it keeps you warm even in extreme conditions,
- stable in volume and function, even after repeated washing.
The EMPORIUM family includes two variants: EMPORIUM LOFT and EMPORIUM AGILE. Each has its own strengths, and both combine protection from the cold with comfort when worn.
EMPORIUM LOFT
Lightness you'll love
Soft, light and pleasantly fluffy. EMPORIUM LOFT filling is made by blowing synthetic fibres directly into the garment. Air pockets form between the fibres and help retain body heat.
The result is effective thermal insulation and comfort in motion. EMPORIUM LOFT is the choice for those who expect warmth, softness and lightness from winter clothing, both for sport and everyday wear.
- Warmth: air trapped in the filling helps reduce heat loss.
- Lightness and softness: for comfortable wear and freedom of movement.
- Lofty structure: blown synthetic fibres create insulating volume.
EMPORIUM AGILE
Warmth that keeps pace
When you move in winter, you need a filling that can also handle moisture. EMPORIUM AGILE is a polyester insulation filling used mainly in KILPI jackets and pants. It helps retain body heat and provides thermal protection even in damp conditions.
Its fibres support moisture wicking and quick drying. Thanks to easy care, EMPORIUM AGILE is a practical choice for functional winter clothing you want to wear regularly and use to the fullest.
- Thermal protection even when damp: for comfort in changing winter conditions.
- Quick drying: the filling copes well with moisture during activity.
- Easy care: a practical advantage for regular wear.
EMPORIUM refers to the emperor penguin as a symbol of the nobility, resilience and ingenuity of nature. It expresses a philosophy built on the principles of nature. That is why we created a filling that does without “live” down. It is proof that performance, comfort and conscience can go hand in hand.
You'll find EMPORIUM in our winter jackets and pants for men, women and kids, because we all deserve to enjoy winter!
