The world's largest sports trade fair in Munich is not just a navel-gazing event for the industry. ISPO also highlights the trends of the coming years. The megatrend in the 2020s is neo-ecology.

The trends of the next few years? Sport will become synonymous with health and everything will be digitalised. However, the megatrend is neo-ecology. This refers to sustainability and efficiency in all areas: from finance and urban planning to ethical consumption. Put simply: eco is no longer a fringe phenomenon consisting of a few people in Birkenstock loafers, but the new mainstream.

Backpack without plastic

The backpack is mainly made from wood fibres, which are 100 per cent recyclable. Bergans of Norway does not use any plastic in the production process. You can see in the video above whether the item manages without the usual zips, eyelets or clip fasteners.
