Passion coupled with quality awareness and a love of nature – these were the ingredients for the SCARPA success story. What began in 1938 as a small shoe factory in Asolo has developed over time into an internationally valued outdoor brand. Today, the brand is not only considered a specialist for mountain and climbing shoes, but has expanded its field of activity to include high-quality trekking, hiking, trail running and lifestyle shoes. In the ski touring and telemark segment, SCARPA has for years maintained its position as a pioneer through innovative and high-quality shoes.
Sustainable development
No shoe can be 100% sustainable. That’s why our ongoing goal is to make the entire product lifecycle sustainable, from raw materials to product recycling. Our path to sustainable innovation is concrete, has measurable goals and the world’s most demanding evaluation standards as a benchmark.
Environmental awareness
90% of manufacturing and material sourcing takes place in Europe under strict regulations. More than half of the production is done entirely in Italy, \Nas high standards and quality guaranteed. In addition, 100% of mountaineering shoes are produced in the factory next to the company headquarters in Asolo and the warehouse, minimizing the impact of logistics movements. The photovoltaic systems installed in the buildings, produce about 400,000 kWh of energy, equivalent to a saving of about 320 tons of C02 emissions per year.
Quality & Durability
We want to prevent premature wear of our products because we value longevity in favor of nature and we want to reduce consumption so\Nie waste production. Our new ecological products combine the reliability our customers rely on with environmental friendliness. They include innovative technologies and processes, biodegradable or plant-based materials, environmentally friendly water-based adhesives to recycled paper packaging.
Sustainable partners
Living in nature also means respecting and protecting it. That’s why we work with partners known for developing sustainable materials. Pebax® Rnew is produced with renewable energy and low C02 emissions, a first step towards reducing our footprint on the planet. Avoid waste, prioritize renewable energy and limit our environmental impact: This is the recipe for a clean environmental consciousness.
Innovation
For Scarpa, the development of a biodegradable shoe is another important step towards a sustainable future. Green Leaf certification from lntertek confirms that the MOJITO BIO is 100% biodegradable. The development of the shoe meant a significant simplification of the production processes. However, the performance and durability of the shoe remain unchanged.
