We are proud to have co-created a bike that takes on the future. I see in Nespresso a strong commitment to sustainability, which is why this has been the dream partnership. This purpose drives everything we do, from our promise to give a bike to a schoolgirl for every Vélosophy we sell, to producing our stylish city bikes from recycled aluminium.

We have been inspired by working with Vélosophy, and I hope the RE:CYCLE bicycle inspires people to recycle." By using recycled capsules to make beautiful bicycles, Vélosophy bring sustainability and style together to create a truly meaningful experience, bringing to life the importance of recycling. Jean-Marc Duvoisin, CEO of Nespresso, said: "Through our collaboration with Vélosophy, we're illustrating to coffee lovers the potential of recycling their aluminium Nespresso capsules.

Designed to highlight the potential of recycling Nespresso's aluminium capsules, the launch of RE:CYCLE is encouraging consumers to consider how they can make a positive impact. The result is RE:CYCLE - a perfect balance of sustainability and style, designed to illustrate the potential of recyclable aluminium and motivate Nespresso fans to recycle their capsules.Īluminium is one of the world's most valuable resources because it can be re-melted and re-used infinitely, allowing craftsmen to give waste a second life. Leading the way with its commitment to recycling, Nespresso has partnered with Swedish lifestyle bike brand Vélosophy to produce a stylish bicycle made from recycled aluminium coffee capsules.

Understanding the origin of a product and its impact on the world around us are crucial factors that we are increasingly considering every day. More than ever before, consumers are looking to make sustainable choices in their daily lives.
