SUSTAINABILITY
Sustainability is an important part of RS Marine Group’s business strategy and has, for some 10 years, been an equally important factor in the RS design process. RS Sailing supports RS Marine Group’s Sustainability Policy which follows three guiding principles, seeking to promote environmental sustainability, remove social barriers and develop economic growth.
Environment
Promote sustainability by limiting energy consumption, reducing greenhouse emissions, fighting resource depletion and protecting biodiversity.
Social
Remove barriers to age, gender, disability and social status whilst encouraging an active and healthy lifestyle.
Growth
Develop economic growth through design, innovation and performance.
