A Sustainable Mission
Misty Mountain Threadworks was founded on the belief that it could make
the finest climbing harnesses in the world, and that this could be
accomplished in a manner that was respectful of all involved - customers,
employees, vendor partners and owners alike. Years of experiencing the forests,
cliffs and rivers of the Southern Appalachian Range has taught us to care
for the World in which we work and live. Misty Mountain manages all of its
operations responsibly and sustainably. Our products are made in the
United States, in our folksy yet state of the art textile facility in
the North Carolina mountains. Manufacturing locally means that we
provide employment for skilled workers in a shrinking manufacturing economy.
Manufacturing locally also cuts down substantially on total freight costs
in both dollars and carbon emissions, as our products are not sent via container
from the other side of the planet. We further reduce our carbon footprint
by reusing corrugated boxes from local retailers and suppliers for
all of our outgoing shipments. Product designs and manufacturing processes
are optimized to minimize waste and promote recycling. Streamlining all
of our processes to conserve energy use is an ongoing project at Misty Mountain.
Misty Mountain is committed to being a responsible corporation, and we thank
you for your support. We hope that you find a world of adventure in your
climbing, and that you care for the world in a way that shows your commitment
to a sustainable environment for all to share.
