A brief history of Co2zero Inc.

Co2zero Inc. is the fruit of a dynamic partnership between Guylaine Niquet and Marcel Mérette, two entrepreneurs who have introduced innovative and ecological products. Inspired by their passion for the outdoors and the environment, Co2zero Inc. is always on the lookout for alternative modes of transportation. The company was launched in 2008, but the dream for a new type of bicycle was brewing in Mr. Mérette’s mind for some time.
 
For the past several years, Mr. Mérette has been designing a new type of low-riding, articulated, front-wheel-drive tricycle. After several attempts, he succeeded in an innovative and unique design. The year 2008 was dedicated to R&D on what would eventually become the Tripodcycle.
 
The prototypes were designed and tested in the summer of 2008. Consumers were very interested in the Tripodcycle. The team saw the demand for this product and therefore decided to market the Tripodcycle in the 2009 season. The Tripodcycle is ideal for both daily activities and leisure. The company now offers two models: the Mmax and the Easy Triker.
