We are proud to be part of a multi-brand consortium that unveiled the world’s first 100% “fiber-to-fiber” biorecycled T-shirt, thanks to Carbios' innovative technology.   Carbios, a biotech company, is at the forefront of developing and industrializing biological solutions to reinvent the life cycle of polyester plastic and textiles. Inspired by nature, their enzyme-based processes break down plastic, helping to accelerate the transition to a circular economy.   At Salomon, we are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of innovation and sustainability, and this collaboration is a testament to our ongoing efforts. Our collective work since 2022 has led to this significant milestone.   “This T-shirt is the first tangible result of our ‘fiber to fiber’ consortium with CARBIOS, overcoming textile challenges to create a garment from enzymatically recycled waste with the same quality as virgin fibers. It builds on Salomon’s commitment to material circularity, following Index - the first recyclable running shoe, and highlights our dedication to reducing factory waste and our engagement to reduce by 30% our carbon footprint by 2030. This project, in collaboration with footwear and apparel Brand partners, reflects our shared leadership and vision for a more sustainable footwear and textile industry.” - Guillaume Meyzenq, Salomon Chief Product Officer Softgoods   #Salomon #Sustainability #Innovation #Collaboration

Behind the Scenes: Salomon’s 2024 Retail Training Camp Experience Over five immersive days, 24 retail trainers collaborated to develop a unified strategy for training staff across 684 stores. This unique camp was a journey of unleashing potential and embracing the authentic Salomon spirit. Participants experienced a full immersion in our brand values and purpose through outdoor activities and a hike with the Salomon Foundation and YAMBI — an NGO aiming at facilitating integration of refugees through mountain activities. They enhanced their expertise in training animations, and got to meet experts when they visited our headquarters in Annecy. The camp also provided comprehensive product training, preparing everyone for the upcoming season. Take a look at the highlights of their memorable experience! Want to join the team?

175 km - 10,150m Elevation Gain - 23h25’02’’ — When a Legend Becomes a Legend Again Nearly two months after having to withdraw from UTMB, Mathieu Blanchard made an incredible comeback in one of the toughest races in the world. Despite facing an Achilles injury and recovering from Covid, his preparation was far from ideal. Yet, Mathieu’s resilience and determination shone through as he conquered “la Diagonale des Fous” in his first attempt, achieving his biggest goal of the season. He completed the grueling 175 km course with 10,150 meters of elevation gain in an astonishing 23 hours, 25 minutes, and 2 seconds. Congratulations, Mathieu!   Photos — Martin Cavarec & Grand Raid / Imaz.Press.com
