Put simply: If sustainability matters, then cycling is the best option for urban mobility. But it's not thateasy. Raw materials bought in from distant countries, overly long supply chains and high material wear - not every bicycle is equally sustainable. However, we do things differently with the igus:bike.
To protect our planet, it is necessary to create a circular economy - in which the plastic in the world's landfills can become a valuable resource. To support this transformation, we tirelessly research and develop - for the environment, for progress and for a better tomorrow.
Since all parts are made of plastic, they are resistant to rust and many environmental influences. - an igus:bike can therefore be ridden for many years without any worries.
Part by part, we create a clean future through sustainable world-changing solutions from a linear economy to a circular economy.
All moving parts of the bike use integrated solid lubricants that release microscopic particles with every ride, ensuring optimum mobility of wheels and pedals.. No re-oiling, no squeaky chain, less wear.
The idea: igus® creates a platform through which bicycle manufacturers can get in touch with each other. We enable the global bicycle industry to build a different kind of bicycle - and to do so at many locations around the globe. This special type of production then has an impact on transport routes: They become shorter and more environmentally friendly.
Introducing a bike innovation for urban mobility: This bike is made of recycled high-performance plastic. It does not rust and requires almost no maintenance - sustainable plastics moving people.
What the bike can doWe at igus have made the aspect of sustainability the focus of our corporate activities. By 2025, we want our buildings and production to be CO₂ neutral. Find out what else we are up to.
Sustainability at igusWe are looking for strong corporate partnerships to help us make our vision of producing sustainable, maintenance-free and durable bicycles from recyclable materials a reality. If you would like to enter into a collaboration with us or place a press inquiry, we look forward to hearing from you.
