Maximize the service life,
Minimize environmental impacts
At Supernova, we see it as an important entrepreneurial responsibility to continuously reduce resource consumption and to maximize the lifespan of our products. In this way we can actively lower harmful influences on the environment. We are aware that our products leave a CO2 footprint. That is why, in cooperation with the Freiburg energy agency, we have determined a Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) for three of our most important products. This makes the environmental impact transparent across the entire life cycle and shows us how we can minimize it.
Our general sustainability strategy regarding our products
Reduction of resource consumption:
We continuously optimize aluminum consumption and partly rely on recycled material.
Long -lived products:
We develop products with a high lifespan to reduce the need for new purchases.
Our biggest lever as a bicycle component manufacturer
The calculation is very simple: the best thing we can do here and now for climate protection must be obtained and ride more bike! Because the switch from the car to a bike-whether with or without electrical support-is an enormous step towards CO2 reduction. With consistent green electricity use, the CO2 footprint of our products can be reduced via phenomenal 85 %!*

Our appeal to you
You yourself can make a major contribution to CO2 reduction by changing to real green electricity-i.e. free of Greenwashing (!). Even with medium use, you will improve your personal CO2 balance massively! We in particular recommend Green Planet Energy (without obtaining the provider commission) or the independent overview page OK-Power (the non-profit seal guarantees that the green electricity comes from 100% renewable energies). A simple but highly effective lever for more climate protection!
