Our responsibility

Climate Protection with myclimate

CO2 reduction

The decarbonization of the supply chain is a major challenge for the globalized economy. EXPED is facing this challenge together with European Outdoor Group (EOG) as a partner. By joining forces, more can be achieved.

HIGH QUALITY MATERIALS

All materials used in our products have been tested according to the highest quality and durability standards. EXPED products mainly feature oeko-tex® 100 or bluesign® approved fabrics, buckles and zippers.

More about EXPED & bluesign®

More than 80% of our products contain at least 20% recycled materials from GRS-certified fabric suppliers.

REDUCED CHEMICAL APPLICATIONS

All EXPED textile products have been manufactured without intentionally added PFAS since 2025.

More about EXPED & PFAS

We completely avoid flame retardant (FR) treatments and fabrics made of PVC.

Repair instead of discarding

All EXPED products are designed for maximum longevity. We repair products in our specialized workshops - even if it is not always economically viable. We process warranty cases and repairs with a professional team in-hous in our own workshops. The feedback and data gathered is a valuable source of information for future improvements and innovations - and for long-lasting products.

With the mat testing equipment in our repair workshops, our repair team can find even the smallest puncture. We are pleased to be able to offer our customers exceptional and reliable service.

Repair Service

Paper and plastic packaging

All EXPED packaging is reduced to a minimum and is made of FSC certified recyclable paper and cardboard. This reduces the amount of resources used, contributes to cleaner air as packaging does not require incineration and does not add to the huge amount of plastics that contaminate our oceans.

Certain accessories in our range are packaged in reusable zippered pouches. Only a few products that need additional protection come in individual polybags.

COOPERATIVE PARTNERSHIP

GUARANTEED ANIMAL WELFARE

The down used in our products is certified in accordance with the Responsible Down Standard (RDS) and is fully traceable. RDS adheres to the strictest animal welfare guidelines and guarantees species-appropriate animal husbandry without live plucking or forced feeding. Down, as a natural product, is almost indestructible. The down from non-repairable products is recycled and flows back into our new products.

Each bag's down is traceable throughout its supply chain, and every bag is sold with a QR code that links to compliance-specific data from the IDFL.

EXPED commits to source 100% of our wool from RWS certified farmers and suppliers. The Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) aims to improve the welfare of sheep and the land they graze on. It is based on the five provisions and animal welfare aims and includes no mulesing. RWS is a voluntary standard to which farmers and vendors may be certified to show their progressive approach to animal and environmental welfare.

CONSERVING NATURE TOGETHER

We are a member of the European Outdoor Conservation Association (EOCA). Through EOCA we help to fund global projects and are thus engaged in worldwide nature conservation. In addition to the membership fee, we contribute proceeds from the sales events to EOCA projects.
