#ClimbGreen collection from EDELRID Press Release

Environmental sustainability has been a core value of EDELRID for many years. With our #ClimbGreen collection, we want to prove that the topic of sustainability can be consistently implemented in the PPE sector without compromising on safety or performance. All products in the #ClimbGreen collection are made from sustainable materials or stand out due to their particularly long service life. They are produced in a resource-friendly way and under fair working conditions. 

"A dynamic, internally defined label for a product that meets the highest current standards of responsible design and manufacturing for its respective product group in the market."

EDELRID Ambassador Tommy Caldwell has written an article about his thoughts on our #ClimbGreen range, read it here.

 

PARROT 9.8mm (£170 RRP 60m)

Manufactured from 'upcycled' yarns left over from the production of our other ropes, the Parrot massively reduces our production waste. Despite it's environmental credentials, it's handling and strength are identical to our other ropes. Due to the constantly changing yarn each Parrot has a unqiue colour.

  • Thermo Shield treatment for pleasant handling
  • Innovative design
  • Outstanding price-performance ratio
  • 3D lap coiling enables instant use without tangles
  • The pattern and color can vary due to the use of leftover ropes

SWIFT ECO DRY 8.9mm (£200 RRP 60m)

The Swift Eco Dry was the first rope in the world to feature a PFC-free dry treatment. This represented a massive step forward in rope sustainability. Our Eco Dry treatment has since spread out to a variety of other ropes in our range.

  • Thermo Shield treatment for pleasant handling
  • Triple rated: Certified as a single, half, and twin rope
  • Water absorption less than 2% acc. to the UIAA Water Repellent Test
  • 3D lap coiling enables instant use without tangles
  • Durably water repellent and dirt resistant thanks to the PFC- and PFAS-free Eco Dry finish

JAY & JAYNE (£60 RRP)

The Jay (male proportion) & Jayne (female proportion) are the perfect all-rounders for climbing & mountaineering. Coming in a variety of colours with large size ranges, they are ideal for any level of climber. Adjustable leg loops and an easy-to-center tie-in point enable the harness to be quickly and conveniently fitted to size.

  • Adjustable leg loops for optimum fit and full flexibility
  • Textile abrasion protector made of a combination of Dyneema® and polyester for a longer tie-in point service life
  • Moveable foam waist padding allows the tie-in point and the gear loops to be centered and aligned
  • Slide Block buckles for a comfortable and secure harness fit
  • Four symmetrical, high-strength gear loops, two attachment options for ice screw clips, and a chalk bag loop
  • Made of bluesign®-certified materials
  • Choice of 3 colours in both the Jay & Jayne

ZODIAC 3R (£65 RRP)

The Zodiac 3R is the worlds first part-recycled helmet. The outer polyamide shell consists of 100% recycled climbing ropes. The EPS inner shell is fully recycled too. Like the Parrot, despite the environmental credentials, the Zodiac 3R fully complies with all safety standards. Good for the environment, even better for your head!

  • Large vents ensure a constant supply of fresh air
  • Cradle folds into helmet to significantly reduce the pack size
  • Fully adjustable chin strap
  • Overhauled Wing Fit system with rear adjustment dial fits all head shapes
  • Detachable, washable padding
  • Side/front/back impact tested according to EN 12492
  • Integrated head torch clips 

The products shown above are a small selection from our #ClimbGreen range. The collection is ever expanding as we push innovation and new manufacturing processes. We genuinely believe in the range and hope to set a precedent in the future of PPE manufacturing.
