Re-Sport - Innovative Recycling Technologies

Company: Re-sport srl

RE-SPORT is a spin-off of the University of Bologna that develops processes for recycling end-of-life equipment. Thanks to the methods developed by RE-SPORT, it was possible to produce 1,000 pairs of boots called Dalbello RE-SKIBOOT made from over 80% plastics derived from end-of-life boots. This increased the sustainability of the new boots by 55% compared to traditional boots. RE-SPORT has also developed, in collaboration with SCARPA, a series of new footwear produced completely using end-of-life leather trekking boots. As a result, the carbon footprint of the new footwear is reduced by about 50%. RE-SPORT's work has shown how it is possible to obtain new sports equipment using materials similar to end-of-life products that have always been destined for landfills.
