Our actions for the environment

Do your part for the planet, opt for a second-hand saddle cover!

A little dusty, a little greasy, a little worn? What if our saddle covers could regain their lost charm?

It was during an internal competition that the teams at CWD had the great, daring idea to recondition second-hand saddle covers. Until now, these saddle covers – stored by the hundreds – were waiting in warehouses to be destroyed.

How? Quite simply by setting up a partnership with a cleaning company in Dordogne. The brand ensures the costs of cleaning, conditioning and storage. After being washed and cleaned, the saddle covers are then offered for sale online at 50% off!

 An environmentally and socially conscious initiative that benefits everyone!

Recycling : it’s in the bag!

CWD is strongly committed to sustainable development.

It also looks to the future, concerned for tomorrow’s world, and makes every effort to limit the impact of its activity on the environment. You may already be familiar with some of our environmental initiatives, namely our vegetal-tanned leather and our eco-design saddle packaging. Keep reading to discover how we recycle the tarpaulins from our stands into fashionable, practical bags for protecting your riding tack.

A bit of our stand in your stable.

Every year, CWD participates in numerous salons and competitions around the globe. Where possible, we re-use the materials employed for decorating our stands. However, certain events and new products require us to print new tarpaulins. In total, that’s about 1,600 m2 of tarpaulin per year. The tarpaulins we print on in France (via our own printers near Nontron, in the Dordogne) are made of PVC We decided to recycle them, where possible, so we’ve started making them into bags to hold your girths, boots, bridles and other small tack. So far, 2,500 bags have already been made.

Look after it carefully, for some of these bags are bound to become collectors’ items!
