The Recozy Exchange Program enables the proper recycling and reuse of all Recozy products' raw materials at the end of their life cycle.
Many resources on our planet are valuable and finite. Nevertheless, the behaviour of many producers and consumers tends towards a "throwaway society" where most products are not recycled at the end of their life cycle. Therefore, we focus on the circular economy at Recozy.
Many resources on this planet are limited and becoming scarcer due to the growing world population contributing to the increasing demand for finite resources. Our current economic system is still heavily reliant on the usage of fossil fuels and is characterised by a linear value chain. It is viewed as a straightforward industrial process in which the necessary resources are extracted from nature, transformed into products and frequently thermally disposed of at the end of their life cycle. This has enormous impacts on the climate and environment, causing more greenhouse gas emissions than are required for reprocessing already used materials.
The implementation of a circular economy and the intelligent use of raw materials can lead to a reduction in emissions and energy conservation. By adopting a circular value chain, targeted recycling and longer-term resource utilisation, costs and emissions can be reduced. Moreover, the circular economy can promote innovation, increase the availability of raw materials and contribute to a long-term increase in the employment rate.
Tastes change – that's just the way it is. At the end of their life cycle, we take back Recozy design objects to recycle them. This is how we fulfil our responsibility as a manufacturer. Click on the button to learn more about the Recozy Exchange Program.

Either scan the NFC tag directly if it is a furniture piece and follow the steps under the "Recycling" section or use the alternative version by following these steps:
1. Registration
Send an email to hello@recozy.de and let us know which product it is.
2. Shipping label & discount
We will send you a shipping label. Once the product arrives, you will receive the Exchange discount for your next order.
3. Recycle & Reuse
Recycled plastics and composite materials, the main components of our products, are recycled and processed by our partners for reuse and sent back to us. Components such as textile cables or glass inserts are checked for quality and reused if possible. Otherwise, we take care of proper disposal.
A circular value chain aims to reuse and/or recycle materials and components of products in a closed system. This can help to preserve critical raw materials, prevent waste as much as possible, or prepare it for reuse.
Not currently. We plan to offer products with minor flaws or signs of use for re-purchase to extend their life cycle further. We will report when the time comes through our newsletter.
Recozy design objects are circular, timeless and created for eternity.
