Jacomet

The sweet spot between sustainability and innovation describes the components that make up Jacomet Ski, designed and created by Simon Jacomet in Switzerland.

A feel of lightness with the ability to glide over the mountains defines Jacomet Skis. Made with precision, intelligence and a thoughtful consciousness, Simon Jacomet is on a mission to refine every detail of the ski-making process, with as little waste as possible, using the most sustainable materials he can.

Innovations include a compound of bio-resin and linen fibres made from renewable raw materials (to be used instead of glue), a patented algae-oil based carbon fibre, ancient granite and ash wood instead of plastic for the ski sidewalls (which sit over the edges and under the top sheet). With three different types of skis for different purposes and conditions, Jacomet’s innovation shows that being sustainable does not have an impact on performance. ‘Catta!’ has masterful control over snow, ‘noda!’ Is great for turns and ‘saulta!’ dances through deep snow.  

Any waste from the ski-making process is created into thoughtfully designed pieces such as armchairs made from regional spruce wood and leftover recycled polyethylene.
