Our aim is to become the most progressive, transparent and sustainable outdoor hardgoods brand worldwide. 2020 is a new milestone in this journey.
PAST & PRESENT
Our sustainability journey began in 1974, with the creation of our first backpacking pack.
By designing high quality, durable backpacks that are built to last, we have always sought to minimise the quantity of material that goes to landfill and protect the very environments that our packs are designed for.
This ethos has been paired with an ongoing belief in sustainability and environmental responsibility. Our All Mighty Guarantee ensures that wherever possible, packs will be repaired and sent back into the outdoors, extending the lifespan and ensuring future adventures. Our SecondLife programme refurbishes pre loved packs and puts them back into the hands of new adventurers.
PROTECTING OUR FUTURE
At Osprey we are dedicated to the outdoors. A key approach of our sustainability strategy is the protection and conservation of all natural environments.
We have maintained a long-term partnership with EOCA as a member and sponsor of several initiatives across Europe and worldwide. From clearing man-made structures from mountainous habitats to bird of prey conservation efforts, we are always looking for ways to protect the environments for future generations to enjoy.
THE FUTURE
Spring 2020 is the latest milestone in this journey, but it continues into 2021 and beyond. A pledge to become the most progressive, transparent and sustainable hard goods brand worldwide brings with it a need for both new processes and new ways of thinking.
We have overhauled our CSR approach while developing new sustainable products and manufacturing processes. These are important areas that we will continue to innovate and evolve.
Sustainability can be high-tech, leading-edge innovation that performs at or above the previous standard
