SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

STORMTECH’s Corporate Social Responsibility focuses on responsible sourcing practices, product safety, environmental stewardship, and giving back to local community organizations.

RESPONSIBLE SOURCING STORMTECH is firmly committed to selling products that are manufactured under legal, safe and fair working conditions in factories where employees are treated fairly. Our Ethical Sourcing Policy is designed to ensure that our global sourcing supply chain operates in compliance with all applicable laws governing child labor, forced labor, wages, benefits, working hours, harassment, health and safety & factory security.

PROTECTING OUR OCEANS STORMTECH is committed to the reduction of fiber fragmentation from textiles into the natural environment by 2030, and the reduction of microfibers and microplastics contributing to water pollution. Implementing stronger, low-shedding polyester fleece standards can significantly reduce the amount of microfibers and microplastic contributing to ocean pollution.

PROTECTING OUR FORESTS STORMTECH is committed to the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) of sustainable sourcing of wood-based fibers, cellulosic fabrics, and paper products in a way that addresses the major environmental impacts associated with deforestation and forests degradation. All hang tags, cartons, and packaging are sourced from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified forest, recycled content, or other controlled wood sources.

BIODEGRADABLE PACKAGING Since Spring 2022 all products are packaged with sustainable materials including Oxo-biodegradable bags and FSC® certified cartons. All hang tags and packaging materials are also produced using recycled biodegradable inputs.

PRIORITIZING ANIMAL WELFARE All STORMTECH products are feather-free and fur-free. Our Animal Derived Materials policy further outlines the restrictions on use of materials sourced from endangered animal habitats. Our guiding principles are the five freedoms of animal welfare as underlined by the World Organization for Animal Health https://www.oie.int/animal-welfare/

CHARITABLE GIVING We commit 1% of our total global sales to charitable initiatives focused on outdoor exploration and environmental stewardship through our 1:1 initiative. That means every STORMTECH purchase further empowers our partner organizations to make the world a better place. Through the Pure Earth Initiative, we share our passion for outdoor experiences by donating our products to youth organizations in order to cultivate a love, respect, and passion for the outdoors.
