Pioneers of Sustainability: Shaping the Future of Outdoor Apparel with Ternua
When thinking of outdoor adventures, breathtaking peaks, endless forests, and serene lakes come to mind. But how often do you consider the clothing that accompanies you on your journeys? The Basque brand Ternua demonstrates through its collections that functional outdoor apparel can both protect and actively support nature.
A Milestone: The B-Corp Certification
In July 2024, Ternua was awarded the prestigious B-Corp certification. This certification honors companies that meet the highest standards of social responsibility, environmental awareness, and corporate governance. Ternua excelled as a sustainability pioneer, showcasing its commitment to ongoing improvement and sustainable practices, which are reviewed every three years.
The New Earth Spirit Collection
The collection impresses with its remarkable circularity: 95% of the garments are made from materials that are either recycled, biodegradable, or specifically developed for the circular economy.
Moreover, Ternua relies on sustainable resources such as organic and regenerative Good Earth Cotton and polyester fibers that consist of 96% recycled materials.
Another highlight is the collection’s technological innovations. Elastic fabrics without elastane ensure optimal recyclability, while the antibacterial HeiQ Mint Treatment, derived from peppermint oil, neutralizes odors and regenerates with every wash.
The New Earth Spirit Collection is not only functional and durable but also stands out with its modern design, making it ideal for both nature and city life.

Sustainability as a Core Value
Ternua goes far beyond mere product development. Since its founding in 1994, the brand has been committed to the circular economy and has implemented numerous projects that conserve resources and reduce environmental impact.
- Recycling projects like Redcycle and Seacycle transform fishing nets and plastic waste from the ocean into high-quality yarns.
- Material innovations such as recycled down (Neokdun) or eco-friendly dyes derived from agricultural waste set new industry standards.
- As early as 2016, Ternua eliminated toxic PFCs from all water-repellent treatments, opting for natural alternatives.
