PossibleMicrobial/bacterial growth in seals
Where these two actually differ
- We flag Microbial/bacterial growth in seals on the Nanuk and not on the B+W.
- The B+W is Optical glass lens with multi-coated optical surfaces where the Nanuk is polypropylene hard case with waterproof gasket seals, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
