Following its initial debut in France in April 2026, Salomon has expanded its repair service program for apparel and bags across Europe. The program enables customers to repair their Salomon products through a simple online process, helping them keep gear in use for longer instead of replacing it. The service is now also available in the UK, Germany, Spain, Italy and the Netherlands, with further rollout planned across the EMEA region.
“This program reflects Salomon’s belief that products are built to perform, endure and accompany people through meaningful experiences in the mountain and beyond. Repairing them allows those experiences to last longer.” — Marie-Laure Piednoir, Global Sustainability and Impact Director at Salomon.
Making repair simple and accessible
The service is designed to remove barriers to repair. Customers submit a request online, ship their product to a repair hub, and receive it back within 7–10 days, making repair a more practical and accessible option for people. Salomon covers shipping, while customers pay for the repair itself.
To deliver the service at scale, Salomon has partnered with United Repair Center (URC), a repair specialist with extensive experience in outdoor and lifestyle products repair. URC operates facilities across Europe, including Amsterdam, London and Paris, supporting consistent quality and capacity.
Building on a broader circularity ambition
Extending the life of products is a key lever to reducing environmental impact. Repair services are part of a broader circular economy approach focused on product longevity, responsible materials and end-of-life solutions. Amer Sports’ sustainability strategy highlights circular economy as a core focus area, encouraging solutions that keep products and materials in use for longer.
This includes scaling repair networks, enabling resale and developing products designed for durability and repair. By embedding repair into the customer journey, Salomon’s program contributes to this broader ambition, helping extend product lifecycles while offering a practical way for consumers to make more responsible choices.
As repair services become more accessible, they play an increasingly important role in reducing waste, supporting circularity, and more sustainable participation in sports and outdoor activities — product by product.
