Highlights & Technologies:

GREEN SHAPE:
VAUDE's quality seal for products that are produced in a particularly environmentally-friendly way. As there is no worldwide standard for the assessment of organic products, VAUDE has developed their own rating system for environmentally friendly outdoor products with strictest criteria. GREEN SHAPE labelled products are made from sustainable materials and with resource saving production methods. The criteria are not only strict but also continuously reviewed and involve the entire product lifecycle, ranging from development through to product care and recycling after use. The aim of this rating system is to minimize the environmental impact.

MYCLIMATE:
This product is climate-neutral: the emissions from materials, manufacturing process and shipping were systematically reduced and completely compensated.

ECONYL RECYCLING:
For this product, VAUDE uses some robust, lightweight and fast-drying polyamide yarn. This is produced in an upcycling process from used nylon materials, including fishing nets – certified according to the Global Recycling Standard. The ECONYL regeneration system makes the oceans cleaner and saves valuable resources.

WOOL:
This product is partially or entirely made from the natural fibre wool. VAUDE uses mulesing-free wool only.

MULESING:
Mulesing is a widespread surgical procedure in Australia, practised in sheep farming for the production of wool. In this procedure, the sensitive skin on the hindquarters of lambs, which has many wrinkles due to breeding, is cut off with a sharp knife and usually without anaesthesia.
The wool for this product comes from sheep that have not been subjected to mulesing, thus setting an example against the torturous procedure.

RECYCLED POLYAMIDE:
The textiles are made from recycled polyamide gained from the upcycling of textile fabrics, e.g. old fisher nets.

STRETCH:
The material’s high elasticity is achieved through a high percentage of elastane or through a special knitting / weaving technology. The elasticity of the material increases comfort, performance and freedom of movement.

MULTIUSE:
Live more, consume less! The MULTIUSE products by VAUDE are multifunctional and can be used for different activities. In this way you can enjoy nature to the fullest, be equipped for everything and reduce your ecological footprint at the same time.
