Arbor Collective
Arbor Collective is a pioneering company in the action sports industry, established in 1995 with a focus on sustainability and craftsmanship. The brand initially made its mark by creating snowboards with responsibly sourced wood veneers, replacing conventional plastic top sheets. Arbor expanded into skateboarding by repurposing old snowboards into longboards and has since developed a full line of eco-conscious skateboards, utilizing materials like bamboo and bio-urethane.
Arbor's mission is to produce high-quality, durable products while minimizing environmental impact. The company's ethos is embodied in its "Returning Roots" initiative, which supports reforestation efforts, particularly in Hawaii, honoring the cultural roots of board sports. This commitment to sustainability extends across their product lines, including skateboards, snowboards, and apparel, all designed with the environment in mind.
Through partnerships with athletes, artists, and environmental organizations, Arbor has cultivated a reputation for innovation and environmental stewardship, distinguishing itself as more than just a brand but a collective of like-minded individuals passionate about outdoor sports and conservation
