Portland, OR — Portland Design Works, creators of gear for everyday cycling, has partnered with Press Forward PR for media relations, product placement, and communications strategy.
“We are very excited to be adding Press Forward to our team. With their energy and passion around cycling, they will play a central role in getting our messages out,” said Erik Olson, co-founder of Portland Design Works.
Portland Design Works offers an array of products that are engineered and tested for the everyday cyclist. “Our goal is to develop products that inspire people to ride. We do this by designing goods that add some fun and style to their bike, like our Otter Cages or food-themed PDW Wraps handlebar tape, and also creating items that allow you to carry more gear, light up the night, keep you dry, or repair a flat, so you can use your bike for more trips and in all conditions.” says Olson.
“We’re thrilled to be working with Portland Design Works,” said Kathryn Flagg, a partner at Press Forward. “We share their love of cycling and adventure, and have long admired their innovative take on gear designed to make cycling more fun.”
The company is a proud member of both 1% For The Planet and Climate Neutral. They have given over $100,000 to bicycle advocacy and environmental organizations through the 1% For the Planet program. They are also Certified Carbon Neutral through Climate Neutral, a nonprofit organization that is helping brands work toward carbon neutrality by measuring and offsetting carbon footprints and working to reduce future emissions.
