At Powerslide, we're not just about producing top-tier inline skating products; we're dedicated to safeguarding the planet we call home and the surfaces
WE LOVE TO ROLL ON
Our journey toward environmental responsibility isn't just
talk; it's a series of actions and ongoing improvements that began with our inception in the early '90s.
From the design phase to materials sourcing, packaging, and production, we're constantly evolving to minimize our ecological footprint.
Embracing Sustainability Every Step of the Way
Our commitment to sustainability is evident in our shift towards eco-friendly materials, such as recycled plastics and vegan-friendly alternatives, in many of our skate
components and protective gear.
We understand that high-quality products are key to reducing waste. That's why we prioritize durability and ease of maintenance in our designs, ensuring that skates and
accessories have a longer lifespan.
Reducing Waste through Innovation
Additionally, our decision to offer replacement parts
directly to consumers worldwide starting October 1, 2022, further extends the life of our products.
Explore our eco-friendly inline skating products, including IQON and Undercover wheels with recycled hubs and alternative PU materials like cornstarch. Our fitness skate shells are crafted from recycled plastics, while high-performance racing boots feature basalt fiber fusion. Stay protected with gear made entirely from recycled materials. Experience top-tier performance with a smaller ecological footprint
Continual Progress
Through our partnership with Ecologi, we're able to plant trees after most orders made through our webshop, helping to restore and preserve vital ecosystems across the globe. Each tree planted not only contributes to carbon sequestration but also promotes biodiversity and supports local communities.
Planting trees with your order
As skaters, we share a responsibility to protect the environments we skate in. By choosing Powerslide, you're not only investing in sustainable skating gear but also empowering positive change on a global scale. Together with Ecologi, we're taking tangible steps towards a greener, more resilient planet, ensuring that future generations can continue to enjoy the thrill of skating in vibrant, healthy environments.
While we're proud of the strides we've made such as over 6,000 planted trees worldwide in 7 months, we recognize
that our journey towards sustainability is ongoing. We remain committed to embracing environmentally friendly practices and adapting our processes to minimize our impact on the planet.
Join Us in Rolling Towards a Brighter Future
Together, let's roll towards a brighter, greener future—one order, and one tree planted at a time. Thank you for partnering with us and Ecologi in our mission to create a more sustainable world for all.
Small changes can make a big impact. By replacing
traditional packaging materials with environmentally friendly alternatives like non-woven reusable PP bags and cardboard tubes, we've significantly reduced our
plastic waste output by approximately 5 tons annually.
Packaging with Purpose
We recognize that progress requires investment. That's why
we've allocated resources towards improving our processes, such as investing in innovative recycling technology to repurpose discarded cardboard into
protective padding for our shipments.
At Powerslide, sustainability is a team effort. We encourage our employees to adopt eco-friendly practices, from conserving energy to choosing climate-neutral shipping options. Together, we believe that even the smallest actions can contribute to a cleaner, healthier environment.
Individual and Collective Action
let's pave the way for a cleaner, healthier planet—one stride at a time.
