- Schöffel promotes fair working conditions and has been awarded the Leader status of the Fair Wear Foundation     

Schöffel: Sustainability is not a hobby

For Schöffel, sustainability is a way of life: "We are well aware of our responsibility for every impact our actions have on society and the environment. We conduct ourselves accordingly – and have done so for a long time." Accordingly, the company has its focus on four key areas: the product along with socially and environmentally friendly and sustainable services. Even though the medium-sized company often encounters limits, it is committed to shifting them in the interests of people and nature. Not only is this practiced at their headquarters in Schwabmünchen near Augsburg, but it is also practiced with regard to the employees at all the production facilities. Top quality products manufactured in a resource-saving manner are the most important lever. Garments are repaired, altered and reimpregnated at Schöffel’s Service Factory so they will last longer. Schöffel's mission is to offer people many unique outdoor experiences with a lasting impression. This requires sustainable and socially responsible behavior, a prerequisite for that confident and relaxed feeling of "Ich bin raus" in any given situation.
