Frozen bottoms are a big problem in the Nordic countries. Mothers and fathers who support their children in hobbies such as ice hockey suffer the most. Frozen bottoms are also considered a reputational risk for companies that take their staff to summer theater. We are replacing polyurethane camping mats with our innovations made from textile waste.

The fiber material for the camping mat comes from the company's own used workwear or production side streams, supporting the customer's circular economy goals for textiles. Two layers of felt are bonded with a waterproof film and then formed into a foldable camping mat using a special thermoforming tool.

"'No more frozen bum' is a good example of the creativity and passion with which our finalists are promoting a more sustainable future." Nils Bader, Director of the Green Product Awards

The online vote, in which we are also represented, is valid until January 30, 2025: https://www.gp-award.com/en/produkte/no-more -frozen -bum
