Drybags come in a range of waterproof ratings that make them more appropriate for some activities than others. In general the thicker the material the more waterproof and robust the bag, but it will also be much heavier and less malleable to fit into nooks and crannies in boats and kayaks, and packed into larger bags.

Look out for these badges with every product:

The method of sealing the bags is crucial. Some dry bags have two methods of securing them: you fold them over at least 3 or 4 times, click the buckles and then secure with a Velcro strip.

The bags are all rated for waterproofness with a two-digit IP number: Ingress Protection.

The first digit will be a number between 0-6, and indicates the degree of protection from ingress of solid objects (the user themselves, and other potentially harmful particulates such as dust or dirt).

The second digit in an IP rating will be a number between 0-9, denoting the quality of resistance to moisture ingress at varying intensities, angles, depths and pressures of exposure or immersion.

All our waterproof bags have a first digit of 6, meaning: Full protection against dust and other particulates, including a vacuum seal, tested against continuous airflow.

The second digits are a 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8.

Note: IP66 bags are BRIEFLY submersible. Meaning they do let some water seep in if submersed. If you need a 100% fully submersible bag we recommend the Watershed range as these have a full ziplock style seal.

Dry Bags automatically offset all carbon emissions from orders placed through our site to help reduce the environmental impact of our shipping. That way you can rest assured that every time you place an order with us, you're also actively helping save precious rainforests across the globe. As of March 2022 here's how much CO2 emissions have been produced from our orders and the estimated area of forest protected through the initiative:

We've partnered up Pachama, a forest conservation company and are currently supporting the Acapa - Bajo Mira y Frontera Forest Conservation Project in Colombia. Acapa - Bajo Mira y Frontera protects forest that is under direct communal ownership of the communities of Acapa and Bajo Mira y Frontera, who are the project owners and the indigenous Afro-Colombian descendent rights owners of these territories.

The project looks to protect the old-growth rainforest on the land. Historically, illegal timber extraction is an important source of income within the project zone and is the major focus of this project.  The project aims to alleviate these pressures on the forests through the support of governance capacity (including individual property titling, land-use planning and conservation zone demarcation), the generation of alternative economic activities and income sources, and through capacity building in administration and management. By creating these alternative avenues and having the communities directly own and govern the project, the project looks to reduce the illegal harvesting.
