FUCK Single-Use Plastic. There, we said it. We're changing the way we do packaging, and we're starting by ditching the polybag for something better: glassine. Our new bags (pictured above) are made from FSC-certified paper, making it easier to recycle and better for the environment. You may see this new packaging in your next order from burton.com and more packaging changes in the future. #Burton #Snowboarding

The science doesn't lie. Burton believes that every person who interacts with our products and in our supply chain, from start to finish, deserves protection from harmful chemicals. Which is why Burton has worked with bluesign® for over 13 years to ensure we are following the latest science, exceeding legal requirements, and making the best gear without sacrificing chemical integrity across our supply chain. As Burton progresses on our clean chemistry journey, we look to science-based organizations, peer brands, and supply chain experts to address our impacts and to reimagine snowsports’ relationship with chemicals. Burton joined the steering committee of the Clean Chemistry and Materials Coalition from the Outdoor Industry Association to learn and share resources on chemicals management best practices. The mission is to break trail in innovation and adoption of safer chemicals that deliver functional, durable, and trustworthy materials and products to our customers.

"I think that Craig would be proud that every new board that comes out of our new R&D space reflects his spirit and legacy." - Jake Burton Carpenter Today, we proudly celebrate the 13th anniversary of Craig's, our 10,000-square-foot state-of-the-art proto shop and R&D lab located at #BurtonHQ and named in honor of Craig Kelly. To commemorate the occasion, we produced 13 limited edition boards to be given away to our Tier 3 First Chair Loyalty members. Designed by #BurtonEmployee Norm Thibault, an R&D Mechanist who's worked at Craig's since it opened, the board's graphic is a tribute to Craig. The Raven represents the seven lives lost in the backcountry of the Selkirk Mountains and reminds us of Craig's presence and spirit. At the entrance of Craig's, on top of an original snowboard press, there's a metal sculpture of a raven to remind us that Craig is always watching and inspiring everything we do.
