In 2022, over 1,300 of Decathlon’s products will be eco-design of which over 500 are made in India. Eco-design is an approach that aims to reduce the environmental impact of a product over its entire life cycle while preserving its qualities of use.

The company is committed to transform all its products into eco-design by 2026.
