One of our favourite things about our Farringdon Office is our exhibition space, which our amazing creative team keep up to date with the latest launches from our brands. Recently Speedo International Ltd made a splash with an installation celebrating the ‘Less gym more swim’ campaign. The space has been transformed into a swimming pool, featuring products and quotes from the campaign. Thank you to all the teams involved in creating this experiential masterpiece! Check out this time-lapse of them bringing it to life.

We caught up with Saracens Group women ahead of the Premiership Women's Rugby final on 16th March! It's been great to hear how our boot partnership with PWR is supporting the players! 🤝💥 #canterburynz #madetougher #pwr
How do you say ellesse? 2025 hails a new era for ellesse, returning the brand to its Italian roots. Say it like an Italian is the playful teaser film reintroducing the brand, and most importantly its correct Italian pronunciation! ‘Some say el-less... others mumble ell-see... but if you really know, you know. eh-leh-eh-seh—say it like an Italian! In this new teaser film, ellesse is more than a name—it’s a statement. And like all things Italian, it deserves to be said with style and passion. So, roll your tongue, feel the rhythm, and say it like you mean it, because the right pronunciation is just the beginning!’
Last week our colleagues at our sites across the UK took part in the first National Movement Hour launched by The Body Coach himself, Joe Wicks The campaign asked business leaders and owners across the country to give their people an hour off in March during the working day, to get moving and ultimately prioritise their physical and mental health. At Pentland Brands, we support anything which gets more people active and supports the wellbeing of our people. So, between 3-4pm last Wednesday 5 March, some of us took some time out to move our bodies! Some enjoyed organised walks whilst others had a session at the gym. Some of us got creative, using VR headsets! Thank you to everyone who organised activities and got involved!
We're proud to say Berghaus is part of Gen B - it's been an exciting couple of years, and we can't wait to see what they do next!
March is #BCorpMonth. As a Certified B Corporation™, we believe there’s a better path to a better world—one of action and purpose, inspiration and community. This movement is powered by an emerging generation of people using business as a force for good. We want as many people as possible to experience the benefits of time spent outdoors so it’s important that we do what we do in a way that minimises our impact. We’re proud of that, for sure, but focussed on rolling up our sleeves to do better.

A huge congratulations to all the teams involved with this amazing collaboration - it's exciting to see such innovative and sustainable materials being used by our brands!
https://lnkd.in/ecxgVEhB Ponda x Berghaus Ltd: Regenerative Outerwear is Here What if your jacket didn’t just keep you warm, but also helped restore the planet? In collaboration with Berghaus Ltd, we’re bringing regenerative materials into performance outerwear. The Concept Piece is insulated with BioPuff®, our bio-based insulation technology sourced from wetlands, one of the world’s most powerful ecosystems. By working with nature rather than against it, this jacket is a step towards a new model for materials—one that actively contributes to restoring the landscape! Designed for performance without compromise, the jacket is insulated with BioPuff® and BioPuff® Wadding, offering a versatile approach to warmth. A modular system allows the wearer to adjust insulation levels based on activity and climate, while a choice between loose fiber fill or non-woven insulation provides flexibility in both appearance and function. The BioPuff® insulation in this piece was sourced and processed entirely in Europe, demonstrating how regenerative biomaterials can be scaled for real-world products. For regenerative materials to become industry standard, collaboration is essential. The future of biomaterials depends on industry-wide support, investment, and integration. Working with Berghaus, this project is a step towards showing how fashion can move beyond extractive materials and adopt solutions that restore ecosystems rather than deplete them. This is not about small changes. It’s about reshaping the way textiles are made. A model that works with nature, not against it. Today, at the Terra Carta Roundtables & Exhibition (10-11 March 2025), we launch The Concept Piece as the Sustainable Markets Initiative (SMI) marks five years since its founding by His Majesty King Charles III. As the leading private sector organisation for sustainable transition, SMI is driving ‘The Growth Story of Our Time’—a new era of global prosperity built on sustainability. #Berghaus #SMITERRACARTA
We are proud that our brands support some amazing organisations, which in turn support some incredible women. Endura ’s kit sponsorship of the @ump for Peace Racing Team is no exception. Premiering on International Women’s Day, Pump for Peace presents Riding Beyond Limits: The Faranak Partoazar Story about Faranak Partoazar, Iran’s cycling pioneer - a woman who refused to let tradition or expectation define her. From learning to ride in secret at 21 to standing on the podium 14 years later at the 2023 Asian Games, her journey is a powerful testament to courage, determination, and an unwavering belief that cycling belongs to everyone. Her victory was a moment that sent ripples through Iranian sport, showing young girls back home that they, too, have a place in cycling. That they, too, can chase dreams others told them were impossible The short documentary is more than a film—it’s a tribute to the women who refuse to be held back. To those who push forward, even when the world tells them no. To those who inspire the next generation to ride, race, and rise. The film is available to watch here: https://lnkd.in/e3sHhzXa
