New ReComp™ fabric and Looptworks partnership amplify the brand's commitment to sustainable innovation and a circular economy

CORTEZ, Colo., Feb. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- This fall, Osprey, a Helen of Troy Limited (NASDAQ: HELE) brand, debuts its most sustainable, responsible and forward-thinking collection to-date. The upcoming season reflects Osprey's unwavering dedication to reducing environmental impacts and supporting a circular economy with the introduction of a proprietary ReComp™ fabric, a new U.S.-based partnership with circular solutions and textile recycling brand Looptworks, and a growing line of products with the certified bluesign® Product designation.

Turning waste into sustainable design, the introduction of ReComp fabric marks Osprey's next leap in material innovation. ReComp repurposes and transforms Osprey's manufacturing scraps into a 70% post-consumer and 30% pre-consumer recycled polyester main body fabric, which is featured in the season's all-new Arcane™ Earth series. In addition to ReComp, Arcane Earth's design technology uses 85% recycled EVA foam, 100% recycled labels and zipper pulls, and a minimal dyeing process that reduces water and energy consumption compared to traditional methods. Osprey's new Arcane Earth series features a Duffel Pack (MSRP $170), Roll Top Pack (MSRP $130), Large Day Pack (MSRP $120) and Hip Bag (MSRP $70).

Osprey's new U.S.-based partnership with Certified B Corporation Looptworks will further achieve next-level, end-of-use recycling for fall 2025. The partnership ensures any products that can't be donated or repaired through Osprey's All Mighty Guarantee™ will be downcycled as a solution to reduce textile waste and landfill impact. Looptworks will collect, sort, deconstruct and transform Osprey's donated textiles into a non-woven fiber that's used to make non-woven products such as insulation, carpet padding, concrete binding and acoustic tiles.

"Each season, Osprey continues to push boundaries with bold design and sustainable innovation, with the goal of being a more conscientious and progressive outdoor brand," said Mark Galbraith, VP of Product. "We're thrilled to be partnering with a like-minded company such as Looptworks, that shares our passion and dedication to reducing waste and making a positive change in our environment."

Since becoming a bluesign SYSTEM PARTNER in 2021 and then introducing the certified bluesign Product label to its collection in 2024 , Osprey has continued to promote, adopt and implement safe chemistry and responsible practices throughout its supply chain. In fall 2025, 83% of Osprey's entire product line will carry the bluesign Product designation — a 13% increase since fall 2024. Consumer products carrying the certified bluesign Product label meet strict safety and environmental requirements. The products are made of bluesign approved materials and are produced in a resource-conserving way with a minimum impact on people and the environment.
