Sustainability
The sustainability of this ski is remarkable, with a strong commitment to environmentally friendly materials and recycling. A significant 77% of the ski is recyclable, which is seven times more than traditional skis. A substantial 34% of its composition is made from recycled materials, with an additional 39% sourced from bio-based materials. Notably, 32.7% of the ski's core is made from beech wood harvested from PEFC™ labelled forests, demonstrating a commitment to responsible forestry practices. Furthermore, 35% of the ski incorporates recycled aluminium, which is infinitely recyclable. Rossignol actively seeks ways to reuse wood chips and collaborates with the recycling sector to repurpose plastics, fine wood, and steel, ensuring that only a minimal 6% of ski materials contribute to waste throughout production.
