"Good design with a clear conscience": this is what Koziol represents

For the Lounge Talk on 18.09.2019 the whole cyber-Wear film team travelled to Koziol in the Odenwald region. The equipment was set up in the Glücksfabrik, founded in 2009. The Glücksfabrik is a special kind of walk-in time machine park. The factory has been manufacturing happiness for 85 years now, producing a wealth of fascinating stories and exciting products to see and discover. After all, simply browsing and looking for ourselves also makes us happy.

During the talk Mohamed Rhiyourhi, who is known to everyone as "Momo", introduced the world of reusable plastic and brand new Koziol products. Stefan Koziol himself threw the first product into the live talk right at the beginning of the conversation. The three-part cutlery set "KLIKK" is perfectly suited to outdoor use and for people on the move, and has a good size. In no time at all, this Design Award nominated product can be dismantled into spoons, knives and forks. The set can, for example, be enhanced with customer colours and a corresponding logo, giving it a very individual look. This is possible even with very small quantities.

The latest development at Koziol is the attractive and compact Bentobox. Especially in times when mobility is becoming more and more important, to-go articles are more popular than ever. The Bentobox is a three-part set consisting of a 0.5 litre bowl in which even soups can be transported thanks to the leak-proof screw cap. The size leaves nothing to be desired, as there is room for both small and large meals. A further compartment is then screwed onto it, which for example provides space for vegetables while the small box offers space for sunflower seeds for soup or other small items. Mixing the ingredients for lunch or dinner just before consumption is a highly popular trend. The hexagonal design and the organic surface give the box an irresistible urban-nature look, as Momo calls it. 

The four-piece set "PASCAL READY", consisting of three containers of different sizes for separating salad, baguette and dressing for example, is also new and offers plenty of space. The fourth part of the set is the three-piece cutlery "KLIKK" mentioned above.

The counterpart to the urban-nature look is the modern-retro style, which can be found in the "PLOPP TO GO" drinking bottle, for example. Its iconic top and modern design make it an absolute eye-catcher and very chic. The bottle can be divided into two parts for cleaning and filling. 

The SAFE TO GO cup, with an allround drinking edge for maximum convenience, is also highly popular. What many may not have known is that the cool lamella structure is not just for the look, but also offers heat protection, so that the 70-80 degree hot coffee or tea can be held in the hand immediately.

Many of the products already mentioned come from the Organic Collection. The material of this new collection consists of cellulose fibres and thermoplastics. This mixture is 100% recyclable because it is not a compound or a thermoset. The products are absolutely food-safe, of course BPA-free, dishwasher-safe up to 100°C and particularly hygienic to use.

Koziol represents "Good design with a clear conscience". Koziol is a design house: each product is developed with dedication by Stefan Koziol himself or by the works design team. The contemporary, creative design and functionality of the products have often won awards. The "good conscience" aspect is based on a number of certifications, on the longevity of the products, which can and should be used for a lifetime, and on ecological criteria, in that up to 90% less energy is consumed during production than, for example, in the manufacture of glass, ceramics or aluminium.

So what could be more sustainable than re-usable plastic products?
