Gomi
This unique Bluetooth speaker is handmade in the gomi studio in Brighton, UK. It boasts high-quality immersive sound. Each speaker is sustainably made from 44 melted and recycled plastic bags and is powered by repurposed batteries from e-bikes previously used on London’s streets. It is charged by USB-C with an amazing look and quality sound. It has modular component design and is offered with “Repairs for Life”. It is anti-obsolescence.
gomi is a small, sustainable design studio based in Brighton, UK. They are the world’s first brand to repurpose lithium-ion batteries from e-bikes, and combine them with plastic bag waste, deemed ‘non-recyclable’, and turn it into design-led immersive audio products.
The gomi Bluetooth speaker embodies their vision for a circular future that is waste-free, turning the most difficult to recycle materials into desirable and repairable products that last. Each speaker has been hand marbled and pressed into the unique designs found on each one's outer shell. No two speakers will ever have the same exact pattern, and each has their own unique edition number engraved on the aluminium back plate.
Their products come with a ‘gomi for life’ promise, meaning that they commit to repairing every product for life, thanks to its modular design. gomi wants to prove that there is a new waste-free way to manufacture our favourite tech, without sacrificing on quality or performance.
The gomi speaker has 32 hours of battery life from just 2 hours of USB-C fast charging. It has Bluetooth 5.0 and AUX inputs and two gomi speakers can be paired together for a truly immersive stereo experience.
Due to the manufacturing methods used, the speaker has a carbon footprint that is less than 50% of comparable alternatives, whilst reusing materials which would otherwise have gone to waste.
