Our Commitment to the
Environment
We've grown a lot since 2012, expanding our product range, internal team, and company goals. Along with all this growth, our impact on the places we love has grown too. That's why a big part of our mission going forward is to reduce our impact while leading the way towards a more sustainable future.

Mai Ndombe
To offset a portion of our carbon emissions, we’ve partnered with Everland Marketing to support their Mai Ndombe Project. The Mai Ndombe Project helps protect the world’s second-largest intact rainforest in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Since the launch of the project in 2011, logging in the area has halted and deforested areas have been regenerated through conservation efforts. The Mai Ndombe Project has reduced an average of over 5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually thus far.

Preventing Waste
Moving forward, we will not be including power adapters with most power products. We believe many people already own multiple power adapters and providing additional units would create unnecessary packaging and electronic waste.
Excluding adapters means we can make our packaging smaller and lighter. This allows us to ship products to their final destination more efficiently, lowering our carbon footprint.

Packaging Changes
We are committed to PrAna’s Responsible Packaging Movement with the goal of reducing and removing plastic and virgin forest fiber from our packaging materials and shipping supplies. We've since introduced changes in our packaging designs to make our packaging more easily recyclable by our customers and local recycling facilities.
