Upcycled materials are high-quality, unused raw materials that would otherwise go to waste or recycling. These include production offcuts, unsold goods, and materials classified as second quality due to minor defects such as color errors or slight imperfections. By embracing pre-consumer upcycling, Ratio ensures these materials are repurposed before they reach the consumer, reducing waste and promoting sustainability.
The upcycled materials used in the Moon Rise Pro are sourced from local enterprises committed to ecological and territorial industry practices within the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, France’s leading industrial basin for technical textiles. This approach not only supports local businesses but also secures materials that often exceed market standards in terms of durability, resistance to elements, and overall quality. Ratio's upcycling partners include:
- ACOUSTEAM 🇫🇷 ♻
- ALPEX 🇫🇷 ♻
- AJ BIAIS 🇫🇷 ♻
- ARVA – NIC IMPEX 🇫🇷 ♻
- BALAS TEXTILE 🇫🇷 ♻
- DIATEX 🇫🇷 ♻
- MKM COUTURE / CILAO 🇫🇷 ♻
- SASYTEX 🇫🇷 ♻
- SAINT CLAIR TEXTILES 🇫🇷 ♻
Utilizing upcycled materials greatly supports the local and circular economy by minimizing waste and reducing the need for new raw materials. Sourcing these materials locally from the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region not only reduces transportation emissions but also helps maintain jobs and skills within the community. This practice ensures that the production process remains sustainable, supporting both the environment and the local economy.
To maintain the quality and longevity of your backpack, we recommend cleaning it with a damp cloth for general maintenance. Avoid machine washing as it can damage the fabric and protective coatings. For more detailed care instructions, refer to the care label on the product.
