We aim to maximize the sustainable nature of our products while still maintaining their high level of performance through innovation, technology and design.
At SCOTT, we are working continuously to improve our products by aiming to have better-performing and better-designed products using the latest technologies. We have also taken a conscious step in improving the sustainability of our products.
We developed the re-source by SCOTT logo to make it easier for our customers to make a more conscientious decision when purchasing our products. The logo is visible on products that are made using more eco-friendly materials and fulfil certain sustainability criteria.
WHAT DEFINES RE-SOURCE BY SCOTT HARDGOODS?
re-source by SCOTT hardgoods products are defined by the use of recycled, bio-based and/or renewable materials certified by third parties, representing a minimum of 50% more eco-responsible materials by weight. For the Fall/Winter 22/23 season, we presented three products that meet these criteria: the SCOTT Shield Recycled Goggle, the SCOTT Superguide LT 95 Ski, and the SCOTT Couloir Tour helmet.
SCOTT Airflow Pro and Airflow Protectors
The SCOTT Airflow Pro and Airflow protectors allows you to embrace the freedom to move and ski with confidence, knowing that your back is well protected. Designed with a strong commitment to the environment, these products have a 56% biobased plate and the garments are made using more than 50% recycled materials by weight.
SCOTT Pure Tour Ski
The SCOTT Pure Tour skis combine sustainable materials to offer a unique experience. The certified wood core makes the ski lively and responsive whilst the flax fibers absorb vibrations and brings assistance and comfort to another level. We have also included recycled materials in the base, edges and sidewalls of this ski and the top sheet is partially made from biobased materials from castor beans.
MORE THAN 50% ECO-CONTENT BY WEIGHT.
SCOTT Cosmos Re‑source Skiboot
This first foray into using more ECO responsible materials in our ski boots has enabled us to add another product into the re-source by SCOTT family. With a mixture of biobased and recycled materials reaching 50% of the product weight, the COSMOS Re-Source is a great first step towards the future.
MORE THAN 50% ECO-CONTENT BY WEIGHT.
SCOTT Flow Pro MIPS Helmet
The Flow Pro MIPS Helmet is a freeride helmet with features galore. The first helmet in our range to include a recycled PC outer shell and a minimum of 50% recycled EPS liner. This helmet has a total of 42% recycled material by weight.
SCOTT Couloir Tour Helmet
A lightweight, touring-specific winter helmet used by our most winter athletes. Designed to work with a beanie, this helmet is made with over 33% recycled material. The EPS, straps and vent plates are all made using recycled waste. This helmet keeps you safe and helps lessen our impact on our playground.
WHAT DEFINES RE-SOURCE BY SCOTT APPAREL?
re-source by SCOTT is not only the name of our corporate sustainability program, it is also a label that we use on products that meet our strictest material sustainability criteria. The first range of products that we presented with our re-source by SCOTT logo was our apparel line. For the Fall/Winter 20/21 season, we developed criteria for our Softgoods products to be considered re-source by SCOTT. These criteria stipulate that a product must contain either a minimum of 50% recycled content or it must be made from 100% certified renewable materials. In addition, the product cannot contain any PFC-based durable water repellence. These criteria allow us to set a high bar as to what we believe are more eco-responsible products.

PFC-FREE DURABLE WATER REPELLENCE
Perfluorinated and polyfluorinated compounds, also known as PFCs, are a group of fluorinated substances that have long been used for durable water repellence (DWR) in clothing and gear. The benefits they offer are many: repellence against water, oil and dirt, thermal and chemical stability while preserving breathability of the fabric to which it is applied. However, PFCs do not easily break down in nature and instead bioaccumulate in living organisms and travel up the food chain, where they can cause severe health issues for both animals and humans.

WHAT DEFINES RE-SOURCE BY SCOTT FOOTWEAR?
For the third year of our re-source by SCOTT program, we expanded into SCOTT Footwear and are now able to offer products meeting our more sustainable product criteria. re-source by SCOTT Footwear products are defined by the use of recycled, bio-based and/or renewable materials certified by third parties, representing a minimum of 40% more eco-responsible materials by weight. For the Spring/Summer 23 season, we presented two products that meet these criteria: the SCOTT Pursuit Explore, and the SCOTT Sport Crus-r BOA® Eco.
SCOTT PURSUIT Explore
Explore without boundaries. Featuring a 100% recycled upper and recycled EVA, the Pursuit Explore is our first product in the re-source by SCOTT Running range. All aspects of the shoe are considered to create a product with the lightest footprint in both running and sustainability.
SCOTT x DOGHAMMER
Discover a unique SCOTT collaboration that transforms surplus goggle straps into stylish and sustainable slippers. Embracing the ethos of upcycling, Doghammer gives new life into materials that would otherwise go to waste, creating vibrant footwear with a surprise blend of colors in each pair.
BIO-BASED MATERIALS
In our portfolio of more eco-responsible materials, we have started to use bio-based plastics. These plastics, unlike conventional plastics that are made from fossil fuels, are made from biomass. In other words, organic matter. When we use bio-based plastics, the most important point we verify is that the biomass used is not in competition with food sources. The biomass should be seen as a waste product or non-food source. A few of our products are using bio-based plastics. Our full sunglasses collection is using partially bio-based plastics for the frames. We also use bio-based materials in our Cosmos and Celeste ski boots. All of these products are using bio plastics from castor bean oil. The castor plant farming is predominantly located in India, where the crops are grown mainly in semi-arid and drought-prone territories, and thus do not compete with food crops and do not contribute to deforestation.
SCOTT RIFF SUNGLASSES
The RIFF sunglasses boast a modern design, outstanding quality and use more eco-responsible materials. The frame is made from ECONYL® regenerated nylon, acquired by recycling nylon waste, such as fishing nets, fabric scraps and carpets. The lenses are made from bio-nylon and the product additionally comes with a recycled material pouch.
