At Velor, we create comfortable, stylish and most of all sustainable cycling wear that makes a positive impact on the planet. Our commitment to sustainability runs deep, and we're here to give you a peek behind the scenes.
We kickstart our journey by tackling plastic pollution head-on. From the Mediterranean Sea, we collect discarded fishing nets, PET bottles, and even old carpets. We're proud to turn this waste into something beautiful like our cycle wear.
Once collected, we sort and recycle the waste into pellets. These pellets then form the foundation for creating the new fabrics.
Did you know that each of our short sleeve jerseys contains material equivalent to 8 PET bottles? That's recycling in action!
We spin the recycled pellets into yarn, which is then woven into high-quality fabrics.
Fun fact: our recycled fabrics match the quality of non-recycled ones. Sustainability doesn't mean compromising on quality!
Using these sustainable fabrics, our skilled seamstresses carefully cut and stitch each piece to create our iconic jerseys and bib shorts. Did you know it takes about 40 minutes to craft one single Velor item? Quality over quantity!
After the crafting process, the garment travels to the Netherlands for the final steps of production before reaching your hands - the hands of our everyday cyclists, coffee lovers, and adventurers. Currently, 90-95% of our clothing is crafted from recycled materials, and we're dedicated to maintaining that standard.
We encourage you to return your Velor cycling wear, once it's no longer needed, allowing us to recycle it into new sustainable garments.
