Official Clothing Supplier presents new sustainable range with Veloce Racing



Veloce Racing is delighted to present Be Radical, a new range of sustainable apparel, in partnership with Official Clothing Supplier, Reflo.



Since the NEOM Island X Prix double-header in July, all Veloce Racing team-wear has been provided by Reflo, as the team took on tough terrains in Sardinia, Chile and, most recently, Uruguay, in the all-electric off-road series Extreme E.



The Be Radical range is made from advanced technical fabrics woven from recycled waste, created to adhere to multiple sustainability certifications including Global Recycled Standard, Bluesign, Oetko-Tex and U Trust.



The durable, sustainable clothing provided by Reflo equips the team to take on a changing world, and the Be Radical range recently worn by Veloce Racing, including new driver pairing Molly Taylor and Kevin Hansen, helped the team cope with intense conditions in Punta del Este, where they finished top qualifiers at the Uruguay Natural Energy X Prix.



Molly Taylor, Veloce Racing, said: “Not only does the Reflo team-wear look amazing, but it’s sustainable too which fits in perfectly with what we’re working so hard towards in Extreme E.



“Kevin and I looked and felt the part this weekend, and it was good vibes all round as we took on our first event with Veloce Racing and Reflo.”



Kevin Hansen, Veloce Racing, said: "We had a great first race with Veloce Racing at the Extreme E season finale in Uruguay, and it felt great wearing that Reflo kit too.



“We faced some hot, dusty conditions in Punta del Este, and the quality of the Reflo team-wear really helped us cope with that and perform at our best.



“The new Be Radical t-shirts are super cool too and I’m sure our fans are going to enjoy wearing them.”




Rory MacFadyen, Co-Founder, Reflo, commented: "The Be Radical range perfectly encapsulates the positive impact of our partnership with Veloce Racing, and the genuine desire from both brands to change the norm.



"Our partnership with Veloce is going from strength to strength, and we can't wait to continue pushing the boundaries in 2023. Viva Veloce!"



Alongside this exciting new apparel collection, the two organisations have teamed up to deliver a Reflo x Veloce content series documenting the partnership as they took on an action-packed season in Extreme E.



In line with Reflo’s ethos of sustainable apparel and Veloce Racing’s push for environmental innovation in Extreme E, 2,360 trees will be planted in Reflo’s forest in Madagascar as part of the partnership, and as a result of using Reflo teamwear, the equivalent of 24,708 plastic bottles will have been recycled.
