The materials

With our experience in the field of materials, we put our know-how at the service of eco-design in the outdoor sports sector and more particularly in skiing.

Our approach is based on rigorous criteria of performance, durability and recyclability, guaranteeing solutions that are both innovative and environmentally friendly.

We master the properties of composite materials and work to integrate these characteristics into the design process, in order to meet technical requirements while reducing environmental impact.

02

Ecodesign

Our approach to eco-design focuses on integrating recyclability criteria from the design phase. Changing the composition of a ski does not necessarily make it recyclable.

Without optimization of the structure for dismantling, recyclability is compromised for ideal dismantling.

We have patented a solution where the internal structure of the ski is specifically designed to facilitate the separation of the different composite materials, without the need to cut it.

This eco-design approach guarantees efficient recycling while preserving the performance and durability of the product. It thus becomes a real lever for environmentally friendly recycling.
