In a sustained commitment spanning over three decades, City Cycle Industries Manufacturing (Pvt.) Ltd., better known as Lumala, has consistently led the eco-friendly innovation charge in Sri Lanka’s bicycle industry. Lumala’s dedication to sustainability is evident across its wide range of products, which includes everything from robust mountain bikes for adventure seekers to efficient city cycles for daily commuters.
Lumala is driven by a mission to enhance environmental health and to inspire an active lifestyle throughout the Sri Lankan community. Continuing in its path of innovation, Lumala is devoted to developing eco-friendly solutions that support the broader agenda of global sustainability. This dedication firmly establishes Lumala’s leadership in the realm of smart mobility and underscores our commitment to environmental stewardship.
A testament to its innovation and commitment to environmental stewardship is the introduction of the Eco Hauler. This advanced e-bike cart is designed to tackle the urgent waste management issues in Sri Lanka, where daily plastic waste generation reaches approximately 938 metric tons, with only 4 percent being recycled. In collaboration with the USAID Clean Cities, Blue Ocean (CCBO) program, the Eco Hauler initiative aims to combat ocean plastic pollution, address climate change, and boost waste collection efficiency in both urban and coastal areas, alongside riverbanks.
Characterized by its affordability, low operating costs, high load capacity, and eco-friendly design, the Eco Hauler reflects Lumala’s holistic approach to sustainability, and are actively seeking collaborations with municipalities, community organizations, and various stakeholders to enhance waste management practices throughout Sri Lanka and magnify the impact of the Eco Hauler.
Tariq Miflal, Lumala’s CEO, encapsulates their vision: “Lumala is more than just about innovating products; it’s about envisioning and actualizing a sustainable future for Sri Lanka. The Eco Hauler embodies our commitment to environmental sustainability, paving the way for a cleaner, greener planet.” This philosophy underscores Lumala’s role as a leader in providing smart mobility solutions and fostering environmental sustainability.
