What recozy does

Recozy, operated by Sustainable Manufacturing GmbH and headquartered at Industriepark 7 in Ganderkesee, Germany, is a private sustainable design brand that manufactures home décor and furniture using additive manufacturing (3D printing) with over 90% recycled plastics, including rPLA sourced from post-industrial food packaging waste and PLA blended with recycled wood fibers. The company's product portfolio spans vases (54+ designs across collections such as Bay, Dune, Poppy, Fleur, Soil, and Balloon), table and portable cordless lamps (Ray, Pillar, Base, Aura, Kado), pendant and wall lamps, planters, ornaments, organizers, side tables, and three room fragrances, all produced on a made-to-order basis at a North German production facility to eliminate inventory waste.

The business operates a hybrid go-to-market model: a direct-to-consumer e-commerce store at recozy.de handles individual consumer sales with unit pricing in the €19.95-€589.95 range, supported by digital gift cards, a 10% newsletter welcome discount, and Trusted Shops certification. A separate B2B portal with account registration serves retailers, interior designers, and commercial clients with net pricing, no minimum order values, and free-shipping thresholds (€300 net Germany, €500 net EU). The "recozy individual" service provides white-label and custom product development for enterprise customers including Westwing (custom pendant lamps), EWE (large-format branded pendant lamps), and Fleur ami (custom flower vessels). Distribution extends through a retail partner network across Germany and Europe and worldwide delivery via DHL GoGreen.

Reczy's differentiation rests on a circular design methodology that includes NFC-enabled digital product passports (via whatT.io integration) providing per-product lifecycle transparency, and the recozy Exchange Program that enables customers to return end-of-life products for recycling in exchange for vouchers. The company is founder/management-owned (managing directors Jonas Altenburg, Fynn-Luca Lampe, Rob Pieter Leenen, and Finn-Maximilian Hillen), employs 1-10 people, has not disclosed external funding, and has received editorial features in Schönen Wohnen, ELLE, Hamburger Abendblatt, Süddeutsche Zeitung, and Wohn!Design magazines.
