What is OWL.BiKe commitment to sustainability?

Our progressive approach to sustainability is to acknowledge the sports apparel and coffee industries footprints, valuing the roads, mountains, and other places we ride.

The cycling apparel industry has a long way to go, but OWL.BiKe is committed to improving our current methods and exploring more innovative solutions for a sustainable future.

Is OWL.BiKe's packaging sustainable?

All OWL.BiKe products ship in recycled boxes and mailers, We encourage you to recycle them - or better yet, reuse!

Our hang tags and print materials are made from FSC recycled paper as part of our ongoing commitment to reduce our carbon footprint.

We also refrain from sending unnecessary paper inserts in our shipments and plan on moving to a practical, environmentally-friendly digital post-purchase experience.

What fabrics are OWL.BiKe's tees made out of?

How is OWL.BiKe's Signature Coffee packaged?

100% OWL Goodness Signature Coffee is packaged in Biotrē™ kraft bags made from earth-friendly, plant-based, renewable, and compostable resources, including wood pulp and sugar cane. Bag is made up of 60% renewable wood pulp and 40% Polyethylene (PE). The wood pulp portion is biodegradable. It is ideal for a home compost.

 

Our smaller 100% OWL Goodness Signature™ Coffee Samplers are packaged in renewable Plantcell technology. All components including zippers and valves are made from plants and are fully biodegradable and compostable.

They break down into healthy compost leaving no microplastics and are made from certified compostable materials.

How do I Dispose of Biotrē™ Bags?

Remove the valve and close-tie before placing the bag in your home compost. After 12 weeks remove any remaining bag material and throw away in your trash.

How do I Dispose of Plantcell Bags?

Place the bag in your home compost. After 180 days minimum, 90% of the plastic materials should disintegrate into less than 2mm pieces in compost, and completely biodegrade after 12 months.

The compost should have no toxic effect on plants and fauna. Once fully broken down, the compost can be used in your garden to help plants grow.
