Following three years of work by the outdoor industry, the Eco Index was released in July of 2010 and has been piloted by more than 100 companies. During 2011, members of the OIA Eco Working Group will be invited to pilot the initial version of the Coalition's apparel tool and to develop a tool specific to footwear.
OIA is also committed to its partnership with the European Outdoor Group and World Federation Sporting Goods Industry to improve the Eco Index content based on feedback from the Eco Index piloting process, to share these updates with the Coalition and to further enhance the Eco Index's application for outdoor gear such as tents, backpacks, climbing and paddling gear, bicycles, skis and camping gear.
