Lease a Bike becomes climate neutral

Our mission

Roadmap CSR project
The road is long, but we are cycling towards the next milestone.

We not only want to help other companies become more sustainable, but also make a big contribution to environmental protection ourselves. For the next two years, Lease a Bike has made a promise to make the world a bit greener. All milestones have been set, a strategy has been developed, certified partners have been selected and we are ready to take big steps. As a company, we have a special social responsibility and want to tackle the challenge of the climate crisis. Together with our partners, we can already realise big goals this year, which we will report about regularly on this website.

Donating bikes

We will donate 100 reusable (e-)bikes each year to certified organisations that promote easy access to green mobility.

Reducing our CO₂ footprint

In line with the climate agreement, we are reducing our carbon footprint per employee by 55% by 2030. To improve our supply chain sustainability, we are focusing on the following areas: Reducing packaging materials, extending battery life and changing behaviour across the business.

Sharing progress

We publish an annual CSR report and explain our progress in the area of sustainability on our website. In addition, we are committed to adapting our actions to the current state of the climate crisis.
