EcoDesign aims to minimise a product's environmental impact from the very beginning, starting from the design to its entire life cycle.
To achieve this, we must be environmentally conscious when designing our products.
Eco-design principles can be applied to various aspects of a product. These principles are designed to reduce the product’s environmental impact.
EcoDesign Technology
77%* Decathlon EcoDesign products are produced by one of these 3 technologies: Recycled polyester, Bi-ton and Dope dyed.
*Last updated end of July, 2021
By recycling plastic bottles to produce our polyester, we reduce the use of petroleum-based resources while preserving the product quality.
Textile dyeing process requires a great deal of water but also generates sewage from dyeing vats. To reduce the environmental impact, we use only one mass-dyed thread out of two, reducing water usage.
Textile dyeing is a process that requires a great deal of water. Dope dyeing integrates the colour pigments into the fibre when manufacturing the thread. This technology makes durable and non-fading fabrics.
