The EOG’s Standards and Regulations Committee, which is part of the Sustainability Working Group, will aim to compile the definitive industry resource in the form of an open database with regard to the different regulations, standards and labels associated with sustainability within the outdoor sector.
The committee said it will provide a one-stop point of reference for the outdoor sector to understand what is mandatory and what is voluntary within the industry.
“As the SWG develops and grows it is vital to the relevance to the industry that we encourage as many companies and organizations as possible to become involved, all sizes and all parts of the supply chain through to retail are welcome,” stated Mark Held, Secretary General of the European Outdoor Group. “The more diverse and industry representative the membership of the SWG is, the closer the results will be to a true industry solution.”
