Gomi Phone Case Is 100% Recycled, and No Two Look Exactly the Same - Yanko Design

"The forever phone case is handmade from 100% recycled plastic, backed by a simple guarantee, free repairs for life, and a £20 (around $28) upgrade when you get a new phone. Instead of buying a new case every upgrade cycle, you send the old one back, and they remold the same material into a new form factor, turning the case into something closer to a subscription on the material itself rather than another piece of disposable gear."

"The case is made from recycled plastic that can be reheated and reshaped, so chips and cracks can be repaired, and whole cases can be melted down into new ones. There is no such thing as an end of life in their model; the material either becomes another case or another Gomi product. That circular loop is the core idea, not just the fact that the plastic came from waste in the first place."

"Each case is pressed from mixed plastic, creating a marbled pattern that cannot be repeated. No two cases are the same, which makes the randomness part of the appeal rather than a defect. Colourways like Panther or pastel mixes become loose guidelines rather than exact prints, and the result is a one-of-one object that looks like a tiny slab of recycled terrazzo wrapped around your phone, and no one else has the exact pattern."

Gomi produces a handmade phone case from 100% recycled plastic that can be reheated and reshaped for repairs or remolding into new form factors. The case comes with free repairs for life and a £20 upgrade credit when customers return an old case for a new phone, enabling continuous reuse of the same material. Each case is pressed from mixed plastic, creating a unique marbled pattern so no two cases are identical. The design includes raised edges for screen and camera protection, snug fit, and military-grade drop testing. MagSafe compatibility is available as an optional feature.
