Evolve Outdoors Group Sustainability Actions

Launched a sustainability promise

Evolve Outdoors says it launched a Sustainability Promise in 2017. The company describes this as a company-wide effort to build more sustainable practices into its work. It says the goal is to make high-performance outdoor gear while lowering harm to the environment. The brand also says it reviewed its business in depth, including factories, supplier chains, and raw materials, to understand its waste footprint and find ways to improve.

Switched to recycled fibres

In early 2020, Evolve Outdoors says it started making clothing with fibres made from recycled plastics. The brand says this helps keep plastic waste out of landfill and lowers carbon pollution. It also says it looks at the recyclability of materials when designing new products and tries to use more recyclable and degradable materials in both products and packaging.

Cut packaging waste

The company says it began Project ZERO to reduce plastic and cardboard packaging waste. It reports saving more than 14 tonnes of waste by June 2020 after earlier work to cut packaging use. It also says it stopped using standard packaging methods and removed individual plastic bags from products because they were hard to reuse or recycle and could end up in landfill or the ocean.

Reviewed supply lines

Evolve Outdoors says it keeps reviewing its supply lines in detail. It says each supplier must meet its sustainability requirements. The brand also says it tries to use production methods that reduce water, chemical, and energy use. It presents this as part of a wider effort to make the business more socially and environmentally responsible.

Partnered with One Tree Planted

In 2022, EVOLVE Protein said it partnered with One Tree Planted, a reforestation nonprofit that helps plant trees. The campaign included a donation tied to entries in a social media contest and a promise to plant trees in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. The release said the work was meant to support urban tree cover, improve air quality, reduce heat, and help biodiversity.
