Pioneering Sustainable Mobility Solutions for a Better Tomorrow 

From children‘s scooter to 

urban mobility revolution 

What began as a huge boom in the 

1990s has now become an everyday 

way of getting around, for children 

and adults alike. The Micro Scooter 

has established itself from a hype 

product to a daily companion for all 

age groups. 

At Micro, innovation is part of our 

DNA. Since our founding, we have 

been committed to making tomorrow’s 

mobility more practical and 

eco-friendly through high-quality 

products with a simple and timeless 

design, while keeping the fun 

factor alive. 

Our goal is to promote a “better urban 

lifestyle” with over 50 different 

products for children, teenagers and 

adults. Our brand spectrum ranges 

from the popular children’s scooter 

to stylish electric scooters and our 

latest innovation, the electric city car 

Microlino. 

Despite the different segments, 

all Micro products have one thing 

in common: they are sustainable, 

space-saving and perfect for short 

distances. 

We recognize that corporate sustainability 

has evolved beyond simply 

protecting the environment. Today, 

businesses are evaluated holistically, 

and the ESG (environmental, social, 

and governance) framework has 

emerged as a means of assessing sustainability. 

ESG encompasses three key areas: 

Environment: This includes initiatives 

and innovations for reducing 

CO2 emissions, enhancing environmental 

conservation and restoration, 

and improving energy efficiency. 

Social: This aspect covers topics 

relating to occupational health and 

safety, corporate social responsibility, 

and social commitment. 

Governance: This area focuses on 

the structures and processes of corporate 

management, including values, 

transparency, and supply chain 

management. 

At Micro, we are committed to making 

a positive impact in all areas in 

which we operate. Our ESG report 

reflects this commitment and is continually 

updated with relevant metrics 

that align with our evolving goals. 

In all our efforts to promote sustainable 

business practices, we place 

a high value on transparency and 

accountability.

„Innovation, modernity, openness, 

sustainability, and fairness 

are core values that we cherish 

at all times. We make sure to 

integrate these principles into 

every aspect of our business, from 

selecting materials for our products 

to external and internal 

sales processes, as well as being 

an employer and part of society. 

Our sustainability initiatives and 

activities are not only implemented 

on a global level, but we also 

take pride in launching numerous 

initiatives and setting positive 

examples locally. We understand 

that perfection is a journey, 

not a destination. But we 

are confident that we are on the 

right track, and we strive every 

day to do better. With our commitment 

to providing high-quality 

and sustainable mobility solutions, 

we hope to make a valuable 

contribution to a better urban 

lifestyle.“

Micromobility: Reducing emissions one ride at a time 



Our strategy: Private e-scooters instead of rentals 

Small ride, big impact: 

Embrace micromobility for 

a greener future! 

In our times, urban mobility has been 

a crucial and difficult problem to 

address, encompassing the movement 

of people, goods, and services 

with ease and efficiency within urban 

areas. Since 1950, there has been 

a notable increase in the proportion 

of people living in urban areas. 

It is projected that by 2050, the 

global population will reach 9.8 

billion, with 68% or 6.7 billion individuals 

residing in urban areas.* 

In urban centers, concerns such as 

traffic congestion, the high cost of 

owning a vehicle, and environmental 

impact are causing more and more 

people to turn to micromobility. The 

use of micromobility in cities that 

suffer from heavy traffic has significant 

potential beyond alleviating 

congestion and reducing carbon 

emissions. We believe that micromobility 

vehicles offer a solution 

to the long-standing challenge of 

transportation for first- and lastmile 

travel.

Micromobility and the approval 

of smaller electric vehicles enable 

modern, environmentally friendly 

and clean mobility solutions to make 

their way in urban areas. Their use 

is particularly worthwhile for short 

distances. Due to their low weight 

and small size, they can be taken 

along. Micro products are spacesaving 

and flexible to use. They are 

therefore well suited for the so-called 

“last mile”. 

Micromobility opens up an opportunity 

for the sustainable design of 

mobility services, especially in metropolitan 

areas. It can help avoid 

traffic jams, noise and emissions. In 

addition, fewer parking spaces are 

needed and all residents can benefit 

equally from clean, comfortable 

mobility. 

Micromobiles are not also more 

economical in terms of their resource 

and energy consumption. They can 

complement public transportation 

as a climate-friendly mobility solution. 

In this way, they take a step toward 

the urban mobility revolution.

Advantages of micromobility 

solutions 

Reduced traffic congestion: 

The use of micromobility products 

can help reduce traffic congestion, as 

it provides people with an alternative 

to cars and public transportation. 

Reduced air pollution: 

Micromobility products can contribute 

to minimizing air pollution since 

they utilize renewable energy sources 

as their power supply. 

Cost-effectiveness: 

Micromobility products are often a 

more cost-effective option than using 

cars or public transport.

Shared vs. Private E-Scooters 

At Micro we have always believed 

that micromobility is the key to sustainable 

urban transportation, and 

a recent study by the Swiss Federal 

Institute of Technology Zurich (ETH)* 

confirms our belief. The study, led by 

Daniel Reck and Kay Axhausen from 

the Institute of Transport Planning 

and Systems (IVT) at ETH, shows that 

while privately owned e-scooters 

are an environmentally friendly 

complement to public transport, 

shared e-scooters do more harm to 

the climate than good.

The Benefits of Personal Ownership 

We have always prioritized sustainability 

and safety in our products, 

and our e-scooters are no exception. 

As the inventors of micro-mobility, 

we have been committed to creating 

lightweight, foldable, safe, and sustainable 

scooters for over 25 years. 

Our strategy is centered on personal 

ownership of e-scooters, as this allows 

individuals to take responsibility 

for their condition and handling. 

Micro’s Commitment to 

Sustainability and Safety 

We believe that owning a personal 

electric scooter is the ideal way 

to complement public transport. 

The lightweight and foldable design 

of our scooters makes them easy 

to carry into homes and offices. By 

providing personal ownership, we 

are not only ensuring the safety and 

longevity of our products but also 

encouraging sustainable transportation 

practices.

The Dangers of the Sharing 

Business Model 

We are concerned that the negative 

headlines associated with shared 

e-scooters could damage the image 

of this ingenious, simple, and agile 

means of transportation. That’s why 

we believe that a sharing business 

model without fixed and attended 

stations can seriously harm the positive 

image of e-scooters. In April 

2023, Paris took a significant step by 

overwhelmingly voting to ban shared 

e-scooters, making it the only European 

capital to do so. International 

experts point out that the city has 

long been at the forefront of transportation 

innovation. This move may 

prompt other cities that were considering 

scooter bans to follow suit, as 

Paris is the largest city yet to prohibit 

them.** 

At Micro, we remain committed to 

creating sustainable and safe transportation 

options for individuals, and 

we encourage everyone to consider 

personal ownership of e-scooters as 

a way to reduce their carbon footprint 

and enhance their mobility.

Governance 

We are committed to producing environmentally 

friendly products by 

prioritizing sustainable practices in 

our production processes. We believe 

that it is important to be conscious 

of our impact on the environment 

and take responsibility for our 

actions. 

We prioritize building long-term relationships 

with our suppliers and 

strive to work with local workers instead 

of relying on dormitories with 

migrant workers. This not only helps 

to support the local economy but 

also reduces the carbon footprint of 

our supply chain by shortening the 

distances traveled by our products. 

Our production partners have implemented 

several sustainable practices 

to minimize the impact on the 

environment. One such initiative is a 

solar power generation system, 

which has been in operation since 

2021. Through this system, we are able 

to reduce carbon emissions by approximately 

843.47 tons per year, and over 

the course of the system’s 25-year 

lifespan, we will have reduced emissions 

by a total of 21,086.85 tons. 

The emissions from 21,086.85 

tons of CO2 are equivalent to 

the carbon footprint of producing 

approximately 28 million 

hamburgers or the emissions 

produced by driving a standard 

passenger vehicle for about 52 

million miles.* This distance is 

equivalent to circling the Earth 

over 2,090 times.

We attach great importance to conscious 

manufacturing of our products 



Ensuring Quality Every Step of the Way: Our On-Site Experts in Asia 

Our manufacturing partners also 

take measures to reduce water 

pollution by keeping rainwater and 

wastewater separate on plant premises. 

The wastewater is mainly domestic 

wastewater, which is pretreated in 

a septic tank before being discharged 

into the municipal wastewater treatment 

plant via the municipal wastewater 

network. The wastewater 

complies with the Class A emission 

standards for pollutants from municipal 

wastewater treatment plants 

and the emission limits for water pollutants 

of the local province. 

During the injection molding process, 

we do produce a small amount 

of non-methane total hydrocarbons 

and pollutants. However, we have 

implemented measures to reduce 

their impact on the environment. 

For example, the non-methane total 

hydrocarbons are collected by a 

gas collection hood with 90% collection 

efficiency, and the collected 

exhaust gas is treated by an activated 

carbon adsorption tower before being 

discharged with 90% treatment 

efficiency. 

Similarly, the hardware workshop produces 

welding fumes, but we have implemented 

a movable welding fume 

purifier to minimize their impact. The 

purifier consists of a movable suction 

arm and filtration system, which can 

collect welding fumes from a close 

distance with a collection efficiency 

of more than 90%. The filtration system 

includes a primary filter, flame 

retardant cartridge, and activated 

carbon filter, which together can 

achieve a filtration efficiency of 99% 

or above. In the canteen, we also prioritize 

the collection and treatment 

of fumes to meet the standards. 

Canteen fumes are collected by water 

transport fume hoods and discharged 

after being treated by fume 

purification processors. 

Our commitment to sustainability is 

at the core of our operations, and our 

recycling initiatives within the factories 

of our production partners embody 

this ethos. In line with our zero 

waste policy, all non-utilized injected 

parts are meticulously collected 

and recycled. These materials are 

then reintegrated into the injection 

process, ensuring that no resources 

are wasted. This circular approach 

not only minimizes our environmental 

footprint but also enhances the 

efficiency of our production cycles. 

Finally, we ensure that our waste is 

collected and disposed of in a responsible 

manner. All domestic waste is 

collected and handed over to the 

sanitation department for proper 

disposal and recycling. 

To summarize, we place a high value 

on sustainable production practices. 

We have implemented measures 

such as establishing local supplier relationships, 

generating solar power, 

reducing water pollution, installing 

pollution control facilities, and ensuring 

responsible waste disposal.

At Micro, we are dedicated to providing 

our customers with the highest 

quality products possible. That’s why 

we have established a rigorous quality 

control program that is overseen 

by our experienced quality control 

department, located on-site in Asia. 

Our strict quality control program 

includes testing according to various 

regulations such as EN (European 

standard), ASTM (American standard) 

and GB (Chinese standard), as well as 

other country-specific tests. By adhering 

to these various regulations and 

tests, we are able to achieve a global 

level of quality, as each country’s regulations 

focus on different aspects of 

safety and reliability. This ensures that 

every product we manufacture meets 

our high standards for durability and 

functionality. Our quality control program 

has been perfected over many 

years and is essential to ensuring a 

smooth and efficient production process. 

We take great pride in our commitment 

to testing our products beyond 

the required standards. With 

in-house testing facilities and exper- 

tise, we’re able to push our products 

even further to ensure they meet the 

highest level of safety and reliability 

for our customers. We don’t just stop 

at the required testing; we go above 

and beyond to test our products until 

they break. This allows us to identify 

the weakest part of the product 

and make necessary improvements 

to ensure it is as durable and safe as 

possible. Our ultimate goal is to earn 

and keep the trust of our customers. 

By going beyond the required standards, 

we’re able to provide our 

customers with products that are 

safe, sustainable and built to last.

Kids scooters 

Pendulum Impact Test 

The temperature of the upper deck of 

the scooter is conditioned to -15±2C° 

and frozen for 4 hours. Afterwards it is 

mounted on the scooter and the pendulum 

test is performed. The deck must 

not show any white marks or cracks. 

Handlebar Hanging Test 

The scooter is attached to a lateral 

suspension device. For 5 minutes 60 kg 

weights are hung on the handlebar. 

In this case, although there is no prescribed 

standard from the Toy standard, 

we have replicated the test based 

on our adult series. It is important that 

the handlebar must not have any visible 

deformation, breakage or loss of 

function. 

Adult scooters 

Endurance Fatigue Test 

The deck is loaded with a weight of 

90 kg and the handles with a weight 

of 10 kg each. Afterwards the drum fatigue 

test is performed over 750 km. 

The scooter must not show any visible 

cracks or damage after the test. 

Handlebar Hanging Test 

Although the EN14619 standard requires 

a test in which the scooter is attached 

to the wall both forward and 

downward and loaded with 50 kg for 

5 minutes, we have tested our adult 

scooters to withstand a load of 80 kg for 

20 minutes while attached to a lateral 

suspension device. Even after the test, 

the handlebars must not show any 

visible deformation, breakage or loss 

of function. 

Electric scooters 

Endurance Riding Test 

The e-scooter is driven outdoors with a 

user weight of 90 kg and in sport mode 

at 25 km/h. After the endurance riding 

test over 1’500 km the e-scooter must 

not show any visible cracks or damage 

to any part of the scooter. The same 

test is also performed indoors with 

90 kg on the deck and 10 kg on each 

handle. 

Endurance Drum Test 

The e-scooter is loaded with 100 kg on 

the deck and 10 kg on the handlebar. 

It is then driven at a speed of 25 km/h 

over two rotating drums for a distance 

of at least 500 km. 

Waterproof Test 

This test is performed according to 

the IPX5 standard by placing the product 

under water from top to bottom 

and in all directions with a hose. After 

15 minutes, it is checked whether all 

functions work properly. The test is 

performed after the endurance test 

and not on a new product to ensure 

that waterproofing is also maintained 

after wear and tear.

our workshop, ensuring that it’s in perfect 

working order. Once the Scooter 

is restored, we’ll donate it to a good 

cause, where it will bring joy and 

happiness to someone who might 

not otherwise have had access to a 

scooter. 

We’re passionate about reducing 

waste and conserving resources, and 

by extending the useful life of our 

products or their components, we’re 

doing our part to help the environment. 

We believe that every little bit 

counts, and we’re proud to be making 

a positive impact in our own small way. 

Introduction 

Environment 

Social 

Governance 

We believe in the circular economy 

and giving our products a second life. 

That’s why we’ve partnered with 

Nowos, a Dutch company that specializes 

in the repair of lithium-ion 

batteries, to extend the lifespan of 

the batteries in our e-scooters. 

Because we understand the importance 

of quality and durability in our 

products, and that’s why we offer a 

unique repair and spare parts service 

for every prouct, including our 

e-scooters. Knowing that the battery 

is the heart of our e-scooters, 

is why we’ve chosen to work with experts 

at Nowos, who have unparalleled 

knowledge in the field of battery 

repair and reconditioning. 

Nowos examines every battery and 

decides whether it can be repaired or 

needs to be disposed of properly. By 

reusing original components, they 

can extend the life of the battery, 

which minimizes waste and reduces 

the carbon footprint of our e-scooters. 

After repair, the battery still has 

at least 80% of its original power. 

Our goal is to add value by treating 

used lithium-ion batteries as valuable 

material for remanufacturing, 

not as waste. Nowos owns several 

factories, including one in France, to 

be as close as possible to our customers 

and minimize CO2 emissions. By 

partnering with Nowos, we’re taking 

a step towards a more sustainable 

future for our products and the environment.

Sustainable Impact Report 2023 

Small changes, big impact: Our commitment to sustainable office practices 

ECO Product Line: Innovating for a cleaner planet 

At our company, we believe that sustainability 

should be an integral part 

of our work culture. It starts from the 

moment our employees leave their 

homes. Our offices are strategically 

located just two minutes away from 

the train station, making it easy for 

our employees to travel by public 

transport, reducing their carbon 

footprint and supporting sustainable 

modes of transport. 

By encouraging our team of 50 employees 

to commute via public transport, 

we have made a significant dent 

in our carbon emissions. In one year 

alone, this environmentally conscious 

choice has led to a reduction of approximately 

126.25 tons of CO2 emissions. 

To illustrate this achievement in 

relatable terms: this is equivalent to 

the total carbon footprint of over 10 

million smartphone charges. It’s also 

comparable to the CO2 emissions from 

the electricity used by more than 200 

average households in the European 

Union for one year. 

Saving 126.25 tons of CO2 as a result of commuting 

to the office by public transport 

10 million 

smartphone 

charges 

= 

126.25 

tons co2 

In our day-to-day work, we are also 

committed to minimising the waste 

of resources. It’s often the small 

changes that have a big impact over 

time. We encourage recycling, saving 

electricity, and separating waste 

in our offices. We also promote conscious 

consumption by encouraging 

our employees to bring their own 

reusable bottles and cups to reduce 

single-use plastic waste. 

We understand that business travel is 

sometimes necessary, but we strive 

to minimize travel miles whenever 

possible. Using tele- and videoconferencing 

for meetings and presentations, 

reduces the need for physical 

travel, and saves time and money for 

our employees. 

By making these small yet significant 

changes, we’re not only reducing 

our environmental impact but also 

contributing to a more sustainable 

future. Our commitment to sustainability 

doesn’t stop at our products; 

it’s reflected in every aspect of our 

work, from the office to the community. 

We believe that sustainability is 

not just a buzzword; it’s a way of life, 

and we’re proud to be leading the way.

Micro ECO Kids Scooters 

Approximately 11% of plastic waste 

found in the world’s oceans comes 

from fishing. Every year, some 640,000 

tons of discarded fishing nets and other 

gear are left in the oceans, polluting 

the marine environment. At Micro, we 

are committed to creating sustainable 

solutions to combat this problem. 

We utilize recycled plastic waste 

from landfills and ocean debris to 

create our eco-friendly Micro Kids 

Scooters. This waste is mechanically 

recycled and transformed into 

high-quality “Green Plastic,” which is 

used to construct the deck and brake 

of our Micro ECO scooters. By using 

this material, we are able to reduce 

the amount of plastic waste in landfills 

and oceans, as well as minimize 

our ecological footprint.

ECO Product Line: Innovating 

for a cleaner planet 

Eco-friendly packaging 

We prioritize sustainability and 

responsible forest management 

by using FSC-certified paper for our 

Micro ECO line product packaging. 

This certification ensures that the 

paper we use comes from well-managed 

forests, and we are proud to 

have earned this recognition. Due to 

financial considerations, we have not 

yet extended FSC certification to all 

of our packaging, but we are taking 

steps to reduce the use of plastics, 

foil and wrap in all of our packaging. 

In fact, many of our accessories packaging 

also bear the FSC logo, demonstrating 

our commitment to sustainability 

across our product line. Our 

dedication to sustainability reflects 

our desire to meet consumer demand 

for eco-friendly products and build a 

more sustainable future. 

More infos 

The packaging is made from 100 percent 

recycled materials. Using recycled material 

makes the most of precious forest 

resources and reduces the pressure to 

harvest more trees. 

The Manual is made with a mixture of 

materials from FSC-certified forests, 

recycled materials, and/or FSC-controlled 

wood. 

While controlled wood doesn‘t come 

from FSC-certified forests, it mitigates 

the risk of the material originating from 

unacceptable sources. 

Eco-Friendly Packaging 

Reducing plastic and paper in all product categories 

In our ongoing commitment to sustainability, 

we are taking significant 

steps across all product lines, not 

just our ECO range, to ensure environmentally 

responsible packaging 

practices. Our strategy focuses on 

two main fronts: reducing plastic 

use and minimizing paper waste. 

We have implemented a policy to 

minimize the amount of plastic in 

our packaging. This involves a conscientious 

effort to eliminate unnecessary 

plastic bags for products and 

accessories. Where plastic packaging 

is indispensable, we are transitioning 

to sustainably degradable 

options. This gradual shift not only 

reduces our environmental footprint 

but also aligns with global efforts to 

combat plastic pollution. 

In parallel, we are also addressing 

the issue of paper consumption. 

Recognizing that traditional user 

manuals contribute significantly to 

paper usage, we are innovating in 

this area. Our aim is to streamline 

our manuals, reducing their size by 

approximately two-thirds. This reduction 

is a result of careful revision 

and optimization of content, ensuring 

that our customers still receive 

all the necessary information in a 

more concise format. 

By reducing the environmental impact 

of our packaging, we are taking 

concrete steps towards a more sustainable 

future, consistent with our 

commitment to responsible business 

practices.

Scooting to school not only benefits 

the environment, but also provides 

children with a sense of independence 

and responsibility. They learn 

to navigate their environment safely 

and develop healthy habits that will 

benefit them in the long term. At 

Micro, we are proud to contribute 

to a brighter future for current and 

future generations. We believe that 

by promoting sustainable alternatives, 

we can make a positive impact

Promoting Physical Activity 

and Coordination for Kids! 

Kick scooters can provide a great way 

for kids to stay active and have fun at 

the same time. Some of the health 

benefits of kick scooters for kids include: 

Improved Balance and Coordination: 

Scooting helps kids learn how to 

balance and coordinate their movements. 

Increased physical activity: 

Scooting provides kids with a fun and 

active way to get to school. This can 

help to improve their physical health 

and wellbeing as it increases their 

daily physical activity. 

Strengthened Muscles: 

Scooting helps kids strengthen their 

leg and core muscles. 

Improved Mental Focus: 

The physical activity associated 

with scooting to school can help to 

improve focus and concentration for 

kids, allowing them to start their day 

off with a clear and focused mind. 

Stress relief: 

The wind in their hair and the freedom 

of scooting to school can be incredibly 

calming, helping to reduce 

stress and anxiety levels before they 

even arrive at school. 

Developed Confidence: 

Scooting helps kids build confidence 

and teaches them how to take risks. 

Pediatric Physiotheraphy 

In addition to the mentioned benefits, 

our scooters are also used in 

pediatric physiotheraphy for children 

and adolescents. 

“The seriously ill children in the children’s 

hospital, for example in oncology, 

can cover a greater distance 

in the house with little effort using 

the Micro Scooter and are therefore 

independently mobile. They have 

fun, improve their strength and 

endurance and experience a bit of 

normalcy in a very difficult life situation.” 

Physiotherapists at University Children’s 

Hospital Zurich share their 

experiences using Micro Scooters: 

“In pediatric physiotherapy, we support 

the motor development of a 

child through various offers. This 

also includes allowing children 

who are physically restricted to experience 

and learn how to move 

independently and age-appropriately, 

such as riding a scooter. Our 

patients from all fields have a lot 

of fun with this activity and for us, 

the Micro Scooter is an important 

child-friendly aid to improve the 

strength, endurance, and participation 

of the child.”

Ride the thrill, master the skill 

At Micro, we are committed to fostering 

the development and growth 

of local pump tracks through products 

and financial support. We believe 

that pumptracks are a valuable 

resource for the scooter community, 

offering a range of benefits that go far 

beyond just providing a fun and exciting 

riding experience. 

One of the key advantages of 

pumptracks is their ability to help riders 

improve their skills and develop 

better balance, control, and coordination 

on their scooters. By mastering 

the art of pumping, riders can navigate 

a variety of terrain and obstacles 

with ease, making them more confident 

and competent riders overall. 

But pumptracks are not just about 

skill-building - they are also a great 

way to have fun and experience the 

thrill of riding. With their continuous 

flow and endless possibilities for 

creative lines and tricks, pumptracks 

offer a unique and exciting riding 

experience that is hard to match. 

In addition to being a great way to 

ride and have fun, pumptracks also 

offer a range of social benefits. Many 

pumptracks are located in public 

parks, which means that riders have 

the opportunity to meet and interact 

with other scooter enthusiasts and 

park-goers. This creates a sense of 

community and shared passion that 

is hard to find in other sports and 

activities. 

Of course, pumptracks also offer a 

range of health benefits. Because 

they are low-impact, riders can enjoy 

the benefits of exercise without putting 

unnecessary strain on their joints 

and muscles. This makes pumptracks 

a great option for people of all ages 

and fitness levels who want to stay 

active and healthy. 

Finally, pumptracks are versatile and 

accessible to riders of all levels, from 

beginners to advanced riders. This 

means that riders can continue to 

enjoy and benefit from pumptracks 

even as they progress in their skills 

and seek out more challenging riding 

opportunities. 

At Micro, we are proud to support 

the development and growth of 

pumptracks around the world, and 

we believe that they play an important 

role in promoting a healthy, 

active, and engaged scooter community.

Additionally, our scooters provide employees 

with a convenient and flexible 

mode of transportation, allowing 

them to navigate through crowded 

urban areas with ease. 

We also recognize the importance 

of environmental sustainability, and 

our scooters are an excellent way 

Google Corporate Scooters 

for companies to reduce their carbon 

footprint and demonstrate their 

commitment to social responsibility. 

Finally, our corporate scooters can 

also boost employee satisfaction 

and well-being. In urban areas 

where transportation can be stressful, 

our scooters offer a convenient, 

fun, and eco-friendly alternative to 

traditional modes of transportation. 

Providing access to Micro Scooters 

can also show employees that their 

convenience and work-life balance 

are a priority for the company. 

Overall, we believe that Micro corporate 

scooters are an excellent option 

for companies looking to improve 

their transportation options, promote 

sustainability, and prioritize employee 

satisfaction.

Empowering mobility off-road 

wheelchairs for Mexico 

Our Access Project “Off-Road Wheelchairs 

for Mexico” is a tangible representation 

of our dedication to the 

belief in “Mobility for everyone.” We 

have bestowed the gift of unrestricted 

movement to one hundred individuals 

with mobility impairments in 

Mexico through the use of advanced 

all-terrain wheelchairs. 

Our Leveraged Freedom Chairs (LFC 

wheelchairs) are a result of years of 

research and development with mobility-impaired 

individuals in developing 

countries. The wheelchairs are 

designed to meet their specific needs, 

with three wheels, remarkable durability, 

and the ability to be driven by 

two levers on either side of the seat. 

The elevated seat and advanced 

technical features allow for effortless 

movement on rough terrain, even dirt 

tracks and off-road. 

We are delighted to have made a difference 

in the lives of one hundred 

individuals in Mexico who were once 

confined to their homes due to limited 

mobility. “With the wheelchairs, 

we want to give a new life to some of 

whom could never leave their homes 

due to their limited mobility,” says 

Wim Ouboter, CEO of Micro Mobility 

Systems and inventor of the Micro 

Scooter. 

Our donation of one hundred LFC 

wheelchairs has helped advance 

our vision of “Mobility for everyone” 

and we are confident that it will 

allow the recipients to participate in 

social life with renewed vigor. The 

LFC wheelchairs were developed by 

GRIT, a company of the Massachusetts 

Institute of Technology, and

Micro Scooters for hospitals 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we 

recognized the critical need for 

medical professionals to quickly 

navigate hospital corridors. To 

do our part, we donated over 100 

scooters to hospitals throughout 

Switzerland. The response was 

overwhelmingly positive, and we’re 

proud to have played a small role 

in supporting healthcare workers 

during such a difficult time. 

Now that the crisis has passed, 

we’re heartened to hear that the 

scooters are still being used in 

hospitals to help staff move quickly 

and efficiently. It’s a small but 

meaningful way that we were able 

to contribute and make a positive 

impact during an unprecedented 

global challenge. We’ll continue to 

look for ways to be a force for good 

in our communities, both during 

times of crisis and beyond.

to making a positive impact. 

Our partnership with Right To Play 

transcends typical collaborations — 

it’s a shared journey towards creating 

meaningful change. This initiative 

allows us to extend the joy and freedom

but also contributing to a noble 

mission.

areas where poverty, disease, and 

conflict are prevalent. Their approach 

brings normalcy and hope to these 

children’s lives. Right To Play works 

closely with local organizations and 

educational ministries to ensure longterm 

structural support. They train 

local teachers and coaches in playful 

teaching methods and actively involve

Microlino Auction for War Child 

We had the honor of contributing a 

Microlino to a charity dinner hosted 

in Switzerland, in collaboration with 

the esteemed Swiss chef Andreas 

Caminada’s Fundaziun Uccelin and

in the auction of the Microlino, 

a symbol of eco-friendly innovation, 

which was enhanced by a bespoke 

artwork from the talented Ona 

Sadkowsky, adding a distinct artistic 

flair to the noble act of giving. 

This collaboration represents more 

than just a fundraiser; it is a harmonious 

blend of sustainability, art, and 

social responsibility. The significant 

funds raised during this event are a 

testament to the power of collective 

action in fostering positive change 

worldwide. This initiative underscores 

our ongoing commitment to making 

a meaningful impact, demonstrating 

how innovative solutions and compassionate 

actions can work in unison for 

a better future. 

About War Child:

strong reputation in countries such 

as Germany, England, the USA, and 

particularly in the Netherlands, dedicates 

its efforts to supporting the 

mental health of children in conflict 

zones. Their mission resonates deeply

this event allowed us to extend our 

commitment to global humanitarian

Pioneering innovation with a

For over 25 years, Micro has made a 

lasting impact on the development 

of urban mobility with exclusive 

innovations. From the world-famous 

Micro Scooter, to the revolutionary 

Scooter Luggage, a suitcase with a 

folding kickboard, to the latest coup, 

the electric city car Microlino. 

“Because we have years of experience 

in developing and producing our

but work every day to constantly 

develop Micro and bring new innovations 

to the market, we have succeeded 

in consistently maintaining and 

strengthening our market leadership 

position,” reveals inventor and owner 

Wim Ouboter. And he adds: 

“What we do, we do with 

passion and joy, every day. 

And although other scooter 

manufacturers around the 

world are still trying to make 

scooters like ours, we have 

never tried to make scooters 

like theirs.”

Our Commitment to Local 

Taxes 

As a Swiss company, we take pride in 

paying our taxes in Switzerland. We 

believe that paying taxes in the country 

where we operate is not only our 

obligation, but it is also essential for 

the economic and social well-being 

of Switzerland. Unlike some other 

companies that try to minimize their 

tax payments by moving their profits 

to tax havens, we are committed 

to supporting the local economy 

and contributing to the community 

where we operate. 

By paying our taxes in Switzerland, 

we are helping to fund important 

services such as healthcare, education, 

and infrastructure. We believe 

that these services are essential for 

the development and growth of the 

country and we are proud to contribute 

to them. 

We also recognize the importance 

of supporting our local partners and 

suppliers, and we strive to create a 

positive impact in the communities 

where we operate. By paying our 

taxes in Switzerland, we can help to 

create a stable and secure environment 

for our employees, partners, 

and customers. 

At Micro we believe in being a responsible 

corporate citizen which 

means paying our fair share of taxes 

and contributing to the development 

of the communities where we 

operate. We are proud to be a Swiss

upholding the highest standards of

Micro‘s Self-Funding Strategy 

At Micro, we take pride in the fact 

that we have not relied on external 

funding to grow our business. This 

approach has allowed us to maintain 

a high degree of autonomy, flexibility, 

and financial stability. 

By not having external funding, we 

have more control over our own 

destiny. We can make decisions that 

align with our business objectives 

without the need to consult with outside 

investors. This independence 

allows us to pursue our own vision 

and create innovative solutions that 

have a positive impact on society. 

Additionally, not having external 

funding provides us with increased 

flexibility. We can adapt our business 

strategies to respond to changing 

market conditions, without being 

hindered by the opinions or demands 

of outside investors. This flexibility allows 

us to pivot quickly and efficiently, 

enabling us to stay ahead of our competitors. 

By avoiding external funding, we also 

reduce our risk exposure. We are 

not burdened with the risk of defaulting 

on loans or other forms of debt, 

which can be a significant financial 

burden for companies. This reduces 

the potential for financial losses and 

ensures that our company is better 

able to weather any economic downturns. 

Finally, not having external funding 

allows us to focus more of our 

resources on growing our business. 

We don’t have to worry about 

repaying loans or providing dividends 

to external investors. 

“This focus on growth and 

profitability enables us to invest 

in new sustainable forms 

of transportation, like the 

Microlino, which will have a 

positive impact on the environment 

and society.” 

Overall, our decision to avoid external 

funding has been a positive one 

for our business, enabling us to maintain 

our autonomy, flexibility, financial 

stability, and focus on growth and 

innovation.

of our local communities is 

essential, and we strive to support

We are proud to maintain partnerships 

based on high standards and 

expect our suppliers to operate in the 

same manner. Our on-site team in 

Asia visits our supplier factories at 

least once a week to ensure quality 

standards are met and to foster 

personal relationships with our 

partners. 

Transparency is a key value for us, 

and we welcome anyone who wants 

to look over our shoulder while we 

work. We set high standards for ourselves 

and undergo regular external 

audits to ensure that our actions are 

based on clear principles and structures. 

Our commitment to ethical and sustainable 

business practices is further 

demonstrated by the certifications 

we have achieved. 

We hold the ISO 9001: 2015 certification, 

which reflects our dedication 

to ensuring that our products and 

services consistently meet or exceed 

our customers’ expectations while adhering 

to the highest quality standards. 

The SA8000 Standard, a leading social 

certification program, reflects our 

commitment to treating our workers 

with respect and dignity and providing 

a safe and fair workplace for all. 

We are also proud to hold the SMETA 

review, which highlights our commitment 

to respecting human rights and 

reducing the impact of our business 

operations on the environment. 

Finally, we participate in the amfori

collaboratively with our suppliers to 

ensure that their sustainability performance 

aligns with our expectations 

across our value chain.

We are committed to enforcing our

and reduce negative impacts on the 

environment and comply with all applicable 

local and national laws and 

regulations relating to environmental 

protection. 

Prioritizing Health and Safety 

We prioritize the health and safety of 

all workers in the supply chain. Our 

suppliers must create and maintain 

a safe work environment and incorporate 

sound health and safety management 

practices into their business. 

Our policies require a healthy 

and safe working environment, adequate

Rights 

We uphold the highest standards of 

human and labor rights for all workers 

in our supply chain. We require our 

suppliers to have policies in place 

that recognize, respect, and protect 

the human rights of their employees, 

suppliers, and communities affected 

by their operations. Our policies 

include fair employment terms, reasonable 

working hours, anti-discrimination 

practices, fair compensation, 

the prevention of forced labor and 

human trafficking, the prevention 

of underage labor, the protection of 

juvenile workers, and effective grievance 

mechanisms.

a prestigious recognition of their commitment 

to social and environmental 

responsibility. We are proud to work

This achievement is not only a great 

accomplishment for our UK partner 

but also an inspiration for us at Micro

shows that it is possible to prioritize 

social and environmental responsibility 

while doing business, and we 

hope that our partnership can continue 

to motivate each other to find 

new ways to reduce our environmental 

impact and promote social justice. 

The B Corp Certification is awarded 

to companies that meet the highest 

standards of social and environmental 

performance, accountability, and 

transparency. It is a rigorous process 

that evaluates a company’s impact 

on its workers, customers, suppliers,

justice. Their dedication to creating 

positive change aligns perfectly

Carbon Neutral 

We are delighted to announce that our 

UK partner, has achieved an incredible 

milestone by becoming the first 

scooter brand in the UK to achieve 

carbon neutrality. We are immensely 

proud to be partnering with a company 

that has taken a comprehensive approach 

to reducing their carbon footprint 

by utilizing renewable energy 

sources and optimizing the efficiency 

of their supply chain. In addition, they 

have partnered with Carbon Neutral 

Britain to offset their carbon emissions 

and fund projects that reduce 

the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. 

Micro UK’s commitment to offsetting 

their carbon emissions through Carbon 

Neutral Britain’s projects has a significant 

impact in reducing CO2 in the 

atmosphere. They are funding various 

initiatives, including supporting 

a hydropower plant in Viti Levu, Fiji, 

which aids in meeting the country’s 

growing demand for energy while also 

promoting environmental, social, and 

economic sustainability. Micro UK is 

also supporting the largest wind farm 

in The Philippines, which generates 

clean energy and displaces generation 

from other sources that contribute 

pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions 

to the environment. Additionally, 

they are funding a hydropower 

plant in Nova Marilândia, Brazil, which 

reduces an average of 17,183 tCO2 per 

year and has numerous social and environmental 

programs. 

Micro UK’s dedication to sustainability 

sets an excellent example for all of 

us, and we take great pride in collaborating 

with a company that makes 

a significant contribution to reducing 

the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere 

and creating a more sustainable 

future for us all. While they are 

committed to offsetting all of their 

carbon emissions, they also recognize 

the importance of reducing their 

emissions in the first place. 

Micro UK has developed an action 

plan with Carbon Neutral Britain to 

move towards net-zero and continuously 

seeks ways to reduce their 

carbon footprint. This challenge will 

drive the processes they develop, the 

partners they work with, and the materials 

they source. 

At the core of our values is the belief 

that businesses must take responsibility 

for their impact on the environment, 

and Micro UK’s commitment 

to environmental sustainability is a 

testament to their dedication.

TFL Stars 

Micro UK is proud to partner with 

Transport for London (TFL) on their 

STARS initiative, which promotes 

sustainable travel, active lifestyles, 

and safe travel for families on the 

school run. This partnership includes 

a range of activities such as activity 

cards, travel art competitions, 

and special Micro Scoot Safe sessions. 

Through the STARS initiative, 

schools have replaced 13 million 

miles of car journeys with walking, 

cycling, or scooting, and more than 

700 London primary schools are enrolled 

in the program. 

Working together with TFL, Micro UK 

has created a series of activities for 

schools to complete, including art 

competitions and presentations as 

part of the Youth Travel Ambassadors 

program. When schools complete 

the activities, they have the chance 

to win a range of Micro Scooter prizes, 

including fleets of push scooters 

for schools, special “Micro Scooters 

Scoot Safe” sessions that teach 

children to scoot safely, and Micro 

Scooters accessories to help children 

stay safe and hydrated on the active 

school run. 

Christina Calderato, TfL’s Head of 

Transport Strategy & Planning, has 

praised the partnership, saying: 

“Partnering with Micro Scooters is 

a great opportunity for us to encourage 

the next generation of young 

Londoners to think about the importance 

of active travel and make a 

real difference to our city.” 

Ben Gibson, Managing Director at 

Micro Scooters UK, is equally enthusiastic: 

“We are thrilled to be working 

with TfL on its brilliant STARS initiative. 

Micro Scooters UK was founded 

in London by two mums who were 

looking for an easier, greener, quicker 

more convenient way to do the 

school run with their children. Since 

then, our scooters have revolutionized 

the way families in London and 

the UK do the school run. The TfL 

STARS scheme gives school communities 

an opportunity to move in a 

safer, greener way. We are delighted 

that we can help support this scheme 

and improve school run journeys for 

children, parents, teachers, and local 

residents.” 

Micro UK’s collaboration with TFL on 

the STARS initiative demonstrates 

the company’s commitment to environmental 

sustainability and social 

responsibility. By promoting active, 

sustainable travel for families and 

supporting local schools, Micro UK 

is making a meaningful contribution 

to creating a more sustainable future 

for us all.
