PARTNERS WANTED

“We are empowering an industry to produce sustainable, maintenance-free and durable bicycles from recyclable materials.”

'Tech up, Cost down' - materials from igus are manufactured according to this motto. Our products are designed to extend the service life of machines and applications, eliminate maintenance work and reduce costs. We know that high-performance plastics can have a positive contribution to the protection of resources and environment and this has become the focus of our entrepreneurial activities. We continuously research and develop in the field of full-motion plastic applications (motion plastics) - for the environment, for progress and for a better tomorrow.

FUTURE OF THE IGUS:BIKE

The know-how platform for plastic bikes

The platform is aimed at both end customers and companies: Bicycle customers can see what the state of the art is and where they can buy plastic bikes. We offer bicycle and component manufacturers the opportunity to drive forward modern mobility together with us. The platform is intended to become a contact point for bicycle manufacturers around the world, where the status and progress of all components is continuously shown. We would also like to explicitly invite competitors to join us on this path - major changes are only possible faster if we work together.

Interested manufacturers can use the platform to gain an initial overview, benefit from the know-how already built up, or network with each other. Our vision is to provide a point of contact that effectively helps manufacturers.
