Since the start, we’ve been committed to using sustainable and eco-friendly fabric options in every product. We’ve done this without compromising comfort and quality, or breaking the bank on cost.
Below is some of the important certifications and information on the materials we source and why it matters. We're always on the hunt for cutting-edge performance materials to make the best sustainable, custom cycling apparel!
We use a range of high-quality materials and fabrics made with recycled yarns, low-environmental impact chemicals and lower consumption of non-renewable energy and natural resources.
Rad Co is committed to being a part of transforming the cycling apparel industry away from a linear economy and into a circular one, reducing reliance on virgin raw materials.
OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100
OEKO-TEX® is a label for textiles tested for harmful substances. It sets the benchmark for textile safety, from yarn to finished product. We only use materials bearing the STANDARD 100 label is certified as having passed safety tests for the presence of harmful substances. Every thread, button and accessory have been tested against a list of over 1,000 harmful substances.
The Global Recycled Standard is a voluntary product standard for tracking and verifying the content of recycled materials in a final product. The standard applies to the full supply chain and addresses traceability, environmental principles, social requirements, chemical content and labeling, so we can be confident in our materials.
