Skullcandy has partnered withEcoChainto ‘assess, minimise and publish associated carbon emissions’ related to the creation of its audio products, while a partnership withTerraPasshas enabled Skullcandy to invest in certified carbon-capture programs to offset impacts, resulting in a net-zero footprint for products in the Transparency Series.
Better still, a portion of the proceeds helps fund the critical climate advocacy ofProtect Our Winters, a group Skullcandy already worked with for the release of the also limited edition’Take a Hike’ Dime 2(retailer link) true wireless buds (more info on similar buds can be found on ourbest running headphonesandbest wireless earbudsguides).
The new Transparency Series includes the Hesh Evo Wireless Headphones and the Jib True 2 Wireless Earbuds – both in a new, see-through colourway. Like all Skullcandy products, the Transparency Series comes in 100% recyclable packaging.
Insights from EcoChain have enabled Skullcandy to ‘better understand the carbon footprint of the Transparency Series but its entire brand portfolio’, the brand said. In addition to helping Skullcandy set ‘accountability benchmarks’ and direct eco-friendly product improvements, the EcoChain analysis is apparently helping ‘inform a new generation of eco-conscious products’ slated for 2023.
