STEP 1: COLLECTING PLASTIC WASTE

A positive impact on the environment starts with cleaning up plastic waste. For example, PET bottles are collected and fishing nets are retrieved from the Mediterranean Sea. We are proud that Velor clothing is made from these waste products!

STEP 2: RECYCLING OF PLASTIC WASTE

After collection of waste, it is sorted. Then, it is recycled into pellets. These pellets are the basis for creating new fabrics.

Did you know that each Velor jersey contains material from 8 PET bottles?

STEP 3: CREATING FABRICS

From the pellets, yarn is spun. Yarns are then woven into fabrics.

Did you know that recycled fabrics achieve the same high quality compared to non-recycled fabrics?

STEP 4: PRODUCTION OF VELOR CYCLING CLOTHING

From the fabrics, individual parts of the jersey are cut out and stitched into jerseys or bib shorts.

Did you know it takes approximately 40 minutes to produce one Velor jersey?

STEP 5: RECYCLING VELOR CLOTHING

At this moment, 90-95% of our clothing is made from materials that have been recycled. In the future these can be recycled again. That is why we ask you to send back your piece of Velor clothing once you no longer use it, so we can use it again to make sustainable clothing.

Did you know that the first Velor jersey has already been turned back into polyester?

Why the name Velor ?

Velor, born out of love for cycling and nature. It's a contraction of the 2 French words velo (bicycle) and valoriser (adding value to waste).
