Sustainably Made

Our shovels are engineered from top-grade carbon fibers for unmatched strength. Committed to sustainability, we also utilize flax fibers to reduce the environmental impact, aligning high performance with eco-conscious design.

HOW IS IT MADE?

Engineered for Ultimate Performance

Every curve and angle of the shovel blade has been precisely engineered for optimal strength and efficiency. This lightweight design ensures that while you’re carrying less, you’re not sacrificing durability or performance in critical situations.

The core of the shovel is constructed from top-grade carbon fibers, each fiber meticulously aligned to handle extreme structural loads with flawless precision. This technique, refined through countless engineering hours, ensures the shovel performs reliably under the harshest conditions.

At PurePeak, we balance performance with sustainability. Our shovels are built with carbon fibers for structural strength and durability. To reduce our environmental impact, we’ve replaced the cosmetic layers on the tubes and T-handle with flax fibers, lowering the carbon footprint of each product.

A high-strength stainless steel plate is built into the shovel blade to ensure superior penetration in hard-packed snow or icy conditions, providing the necessary strength exactly where it’s needed most.

To endure the coldest and most extreme environments, we’ve reinforced the shovel with epoxy resin approved by the German Federal Aviation Authority. This ensures that the shovel maintains its structural integrity and remains fully operational even in temperatures as low as -60°C.
