One hundred percent of Kamik’s EOCA membership fees will go directly to select conservation projects including environmental clean-up operations, trail establishments and replanting initiatives. Kamik will align with the EOCA’s mission to support valuable conservation work by raising funds from within the European outdoor sector and promoting care and respect for wild regions.
“For over two decades we have been exercising sustainable practices and working to put processes in place that move us forward as a company, while leaving a smaller footprint behind,” said Richard Cook, CEO, Kamik. “We believe our green initiatives are, and will continue to be, integral to our success. We are committed to manufacturing footwear that families trust to protect against outdoor elements while striving to give back to the outdoor world that we all value so much.”
“We are absolutely delighted to welcome Kamik into membership of EOCA,” said Catherine Savidge, joint general manager, EOCA. “Through its membership, Kamik will be able to work with other forward-thinking companies in the European outdoor industry to protect threatened species and habitats around the world.”
Kamik’s current commitment to sustainable manufacturing includes operating three North American factories that use hydro-generated power instead of fossil fuels, high-quality low-energy lights, and recycled rainwater to cool machines. Kamik also offers a customer recycling program, reusing 100% of boot scraps in the production of new footwear. To further the company’s commitment to domestic product development, Kamik recently purchased new machines to manufacture the upcoming Elements collection - the first and only line of three-season neoprene boots for men and kids that are made in the USA.
