Award-winning camping expert Nemo Equipment has launched its first-ever recyclable sleeping bag with the updated Forte. Available in men’s and women’s versions, the product is part of Nemo’s Endless Promise series, a range in which every product is designed to be be repairable, resellable, and — most crucially — recyclable to keep it out of the landfill.

To make an immediate impact with this collection, NEMO took its existing top-selling, 3-season Spoon™ shape synthetic sleeping bag and redesigned it using just a single material family. Now 100% recyclable, the 2023 Forte is a standout in sustainability as well as comfort and performance.  

Nemo founder and CEO Cam Brensinger said: “From the start, NEMO has produced only products that deserve their place in the world by being truly different and better than what already exists.

“We do this because we’re hyper-aware of the resources required—and waste created—by manufacturing. In our earliest years, we introduced the “Ditto” program, which upcycled production samples and manufacturing rejects turned into (now, highly coveted) wallets and totes. In 2009, we also launched the first recycled fabric tent with bamboo poles. With our Endless Promise Collection, we’re not just being mindful, we’re taking 100% responsibility for our products, long after they’re sold.” 

The updated Forte sleeping bags are available on NEMO’s site now and will be at retailers worldwide in June 2023.
