Decathlon is encouraging campers and Festive To be more environmentally aware with your “no tent left back” pledge.
Retailer This summer will offer a full gift card for every tent returned in summer, the purpose of which is to reduce Abandoned tent.
The initiative extends on previous efforts and now includes every daycathlon brand tent in its Queshua and Simond range.
Customers who buy any of these Tent Between 9 June and 14 September, online or in-store can return them with evidence of purchase before 14 September to obtain full purchase price in the form of dicthlon gift cards.
To participate, customers need to be a decathlon member when returning the tent. This initiative underlines Decathlon’s commitment to stability and responsible CampingTo provide an incentive to customers to return their tents and reuse.
Dickathlon said that the pledge allowed more customers to make responsible options than ever, which fought the important environmental issues of abandoned tents.
A specific single-use tent contains more plastic in the form of 9,000 straws or 200 bottles.
It also stated that the pledge reduced the barrier to outdoor adventures, and encouraged curiosity to invest in a tent for a camp experience, which they are safe in the knowledge that they can return it at the end of the season if their needs change.
Decathlon UK Sustainability leader Chris Ellen reflects: “No Tent Left Behind Promise’s evolution, our deep commitment to circular and our customers reflect commitment to listen.
“What started with a tent has evolved into a commitment throughout our range, which is inspired by the public will to make a more responsible option.
“By easing and rewarding it to bring the tents back, we are not only reducing waste in all camping activities, but also creating an important supply chain for our second life program, making the quality outdoor gear accessible to even more people.
“This is about running systemic changes and changing the camp culture for better.”
Broadcaster Vik Hope, who is supporting this year’s campaign, said: “Whether you are dancing in Glsto, on a hill, or frying the marshmallow with a family, your tent deserves more than one weekend of glory.
“Decathlon’s pledge is fantastic because it is simple to do the right thing.”
End-off-life tents have been rebuilt from last season and converted into an oversized flag affecting the message “I am not leaving my tent behind, you should not be either”, and it will be visible beyond it. Festivals And camp.
