A word from our partners
Mammut
“Today, bluesign Product labels are present on most Mammut products. Our approach is essential to helping Mammut meet its ambitious sustainability and climate targets.”
Osprey
“The bluesign System helps us promote, adopt and implement safe chemistry and responsible practices throughout our supply chain so we can be better stewards, from the resources we use to the people we encounter and the environments we recreate in.”
Adrian Huber
Head of Corporate Responsibility at Mammut
“The holistic bluesign® approach helps us measure our impact, set clear targets, and reduce our environmental impact significantly where it matters the most; in the dyeing and finishing processes. We are proud to have increased the share of bluesign products to over 60% in the past ten years. Our goal is to achieve 90% by 2025. bluesign® is pivotal in achieving our ambitious sustainability and climate targets.”
Frank Henke
SVP Sustainability Policy & Engagement, Global Legal at Adidas
“I see governments trying to regulate a lot of things I’m not sure if this is the right way forward. I would rather think about how we can incentivize companies to play to their strengths, and to find new ways of collaboration further upstream in supply chains to build a joint responsibility for things to be changed.”
Kerry Bannigan
Executive Director at Fashion Impact Fund
“The Sustainable Development Goals cannot be achieved without the involvement of the fashion industry. Fashion needs a seat at the table when the world leaders meet and high-level convenings occur because when you’re talking about gender equality for example, that is not happening without the fashion industry being put in check.”

Jelly shoes might be the look of the season, but they often come with an environmental price 🩴 Most are made with PVC, a plastic that can release toxic chemicals throughout its life cycle
If proper recycling can’t be guaranteed, PVC should be removed and replaced with a safer alternative at the very beginning — and we help brands do just that 🫧
