A positive impact through our products

We are responsible for taking action to mitigate the negative environmental impact of our products. Therefore, we have set 2030 targets for the sustainable use of polyester, one of our key materials.

Using recycled materials

Our target is to switch 100% of the polyester used in our shoes and sportwear products to be recycled polyester. This is part of our move toward a more circular approach, which involves expanding our use of recycled materials in our products.

Using Responsible natural materials

Increasingly, consumers want to know more about the background of branded products and materials, particularly natural materials. We have several initiatives focusing on the sustainable use of materials including leather and cotton.

Support for sustainable choices

Our ASICS Materials Guideline provides guidance for making ethical, compliant, clean and sustainable choices in product development and sourcing. It covers materials such as animal- based materials, PVC and conflict minerals.

Reducing Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in footwear manufacturing

The manufacture of shoes, especially high-performance sports shoes, involves the use of adhesives to bond different parts together. As they can have harmful impacts on people and the environment, we apply a broad range of alternatives to these adhesives.
