Adidas Sustainable Product is versatile and allows charging with solar energy and artificial energy

Of course, Adidas thinks of everything. Therefore, the team responsible for developing the product, in partnership with the Swedish company Exerger, brought the dual possibility of charging the headset: solar energy and artificial energy. That way, you can have the versatility to use the phone whenever you want, not being restricted to using energy from the sun only.

The most interesting thing is that the structure of the headphone allows the loading with artificial light indoors. This is possible thanks to a strip embedded in the upper part of the product that captures the light and transforms it into power for the sustainable product functions.

Adidas' partnership with Exeger brought the Powerfoyle revolution to market: a solar headphone headband

The partnership between Adidas and Exeger yielded many fruits. The main one is the Powerfoyle which is a solar band, which can be attached to the top of the headphones and manages to capture light and transform it into power supply. The arrival of this new headset on the market will open doors to encourage other companies to adopt innovation and greater sustainability process.

This strip allows you to capture artificial light and solar energy and is considered the most resistant in the world. Adidas claims that the device's autonomy time can reach up to 80 hours in continuous use. That is, if you love to play sports, you will fall in love with this unprecedented and innovative headset.

To know about the charging status, Adidas has programmed a light indicator on the head that allows monitoring. That way, you only charge what you need and prevent the battery from getting addicted.

The material is also designed to withstand water. That is, spatter, sweat and rain, will not stop you from listening to that favorite song. In addition, the company installed some physical controls to facilitate the day-to-day activities of those who practice outdoor sports.

Solar-powered headphone project was old and finally took shape, excited many Adidas fans

The RPT-02 model is an old Adidas dream that was being built. Many passionate about the brand did not believe that it would really come true. But, that time has arrived, and sales will finally start next week.

The project has been planned for over 2 years. However, only in July 2022 did Adidas go public to reveal the new headset that was in production. The company highlights the great potential of the sustainable product, since consumers demand a brand positioning in favor of the environment.

In addition to the use of solar energy, the sustainable product was made with recycled polyester and also has little metal in the composition. It's the first step for the audio equipment industry to start rethinking its products.
