SUSTAINABILITY

At Moda, we are deeply committed to fostering a sustainable environment for all cyclists to enjoy, now and in the future. We recognize that in our pursuit of building the most aerodynamic, lightweight bikes, there are environmental challenges to address, including waste products and greenhouse gas emissions. However, we are dedicated to taking active steps to offset our carbon footprint, both in-house and in our wider community. Sustainability is at the heart of what we do, and we are continually seeking innovative ways to produce bikes in a greener, more responsible manner.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

At Moda, we believe in creating bikes that stand the test of time. By building durable, high-quality bikes, we reduce the need for frequent replacements, minimizing the environmental impact over the bike's lifecycle. Our approach to sustainability goes beyond the products we create—it’s embedded in the way we operate.

Green Commuting

We lead by example. Our staff consists of enthusiastic cyclists, and we actively encourage them to cycle to work by providing on-site showers and secure lockers. For those who can’t ride every day, we promote car-sharing wherever possible, reducing the number of vehicles on the road and minimizing emissions. We aim to create a culture where green commuting is not just an option, but a way of life.

Supporting the Community and Local Charities

As part of our commitment to reducing waste, we collaborate with local charities to recycle old stock and surplus parts. This not only prevents unnecessary landfill waste but also supports the community by providing access to affordable cycling equipment. By giving new life to products that would otherwise be discarded, we help local initiatives grow and enable more people to get involved in cycling.

Responsible Packaging: Reusing Boxes, Bubble Wrap, and Foam

Sustainability extends to our packaging processes. We prioritize reusing packaging materials, including boxes, bubble wrap, and foam, whenever possible. This reduces the need for new resources and minimizes waste. In our warehouse and offices, we make a conscious effort to recycle and reuse as much as possible, ensuring that every material is used to its full potential before being discarded.

Eco-Friendly Moda Clothing

Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond bikes. Wherever possible, Moda clothing is made from eco-friendly fabrics sourced from our suppliers who are committed to reducing environmental impact. This ensures that when you wear Moda, you're not just investing in performance and style but also in a product that respects the planet.

Energy-Efficient Warehouse Lighting

We also take steps to reduce our energy consumption. Our warehouse is fitted with LED lighting, which consumes significantly less electricity than traditional lighting solutions. This not only reduces our overall energy use but also contributes to a more sustainable working environment.

Working with Green Suppliers

We are selective about who we work with, choosing suppliers who share our commitment to sustainability. Our preferred partners have robust green policies in place, with long-term plans to protect the environment. By working with suppliers who are as committed to the future of our planet as we are, we ensure that every aspect of our supply chain reflects our dedication to a greener world.

Engaging with the Local Community

At Moda, we actively engage with local cycling clubs and youth teams to encourage the growth of cycling in our community. The owner, Dave Williams, has been supporting domestic development teams for over two decades, helping nurture emerging talent and providing essential resources to up-and-coming cyclists. We believe in fostering the next generation of cyclists by providing them with the support and opportunities they need to thrive. Whether through sponsoring events, offering equipment, or simply sharing our passion for cycling, we’re committed to making a positive impact locally and ensuring that cycling continues to grow as a sport and lifestyle.

Innovating for a Greener Future

We are always looking for new ways to reduce our carbon footprint and innovate in our production processes. From exploring eco-friendly materials to developing more sustainable manufacturing techniques, we are dedicated to continuous improvement. Our goal is to create bikes that not only deliver world-class performance but do so in a way that respects and protects the environment.

At Moda, sustainability isn’t an afterthought—it’s a core value. We take pride in making bikes and clothing that you can feel good about, knowing they are crafted with care for both the cyclist and the planet. Together, we can create a future where cycling is not only a passion but a force for positive environmental change.
