ARBOR SNOWBOARDS - Leaving it better than they found it.
Arbor was founded to build the most mindfully crafted snowboards possible. Since day one, they have used sustainable, environmentally friendly forest products to achieve this objective. They have also donated a portion of every sale to the restoration and preservation of endangered forests. Arbor will continue to stand by their original commitments.
Mindfully Crafted :: Manufactured with 100% Solar Energy
Arbor Snowboards' long-standing manufacturing partnership with SWS Board Technology is one of the key components to the brand’s ability to deliver on its founding mission to focus on sustainability. SWS's commitment to mindfully crafting snowboards goes well beyond today’s quality and sustainability standards. Their efforts allow Arbor Snowboards to offer meaningful progression, year in and year out, in reducing the impact that snowboard production has on the planet.
Returning Roots :: Arbor's Reforestation Giveback
Arbor has always considered the planet in the production of its products. From the start, Arbor committed to donating a portion of every sale to environmental conservation. Their efforts involve protecting and restoring forests and putting roots in the ground. They focus on the Koa forests of Hawaii as the best way to give back to the people and place at the roots of the surf, skate, and snow experience. Today, Arbor is the only brand in action sports restoring forests rather than just planting trees.
Arbor Snowboards :: Real Wood - The Arbor Powerply
For over 25 years Arbor Snowboards have been built using real wood topsheets. Arbor calls their tops Powerplys because they don’t just provide a beautiful, mindfully crafted finish - they significantly improve both the performance and durability of their snowboards. The Powerply works like a third composite layer; additional natural and biodegradable fibres allow them to reduce the weight of their boards and reliance on petroleum-based resins, man-made fibres, and solvents.
