Brand
The Green Core Concept of VAUDE Sport Gmbh & Co. KG is rewarded with ISPO Award 2018 for ECO ACHIEVEMENT BRAND.
Jury statement:
“VAUDE made a bold statement regarding the sustainable development of functional products. Their holistic commitment did not end up in a single product but in a cross-category collection. Honesty and fairness are in the heart of the brand and the core of VAUDE's business, within their supply chain and by making sustainable innovation available to a broader range of customers. By highlighting this (strong) achievement, the jury wants to motivate VAUDE to further challenge their interdisciplinary design and product development team for even more considerate products.“
