Sold out: I checked gomi's shop on 21 October 2026 and every standard wireless charger in the current drop was sold out. For similar presents, see our gifts for techies.
The gomi wireless charger is a 15W Qi charging pad handmade in Brighton from recycled plastic packaging, so every top is marbled differently. gomi sells the standard pads in limited drops at £55 each, and each one is a one-off, so you pick the exact pad you want when a drop is live.
gomi is a small design studio in Brighton, co-founded by Tom Meades in 2017. It turns plastic packaging that most UK councils will not recycle into tech products, and it reuses lithium-ion cells from old e-bikes in its products.
The charger is a plug-in pad, not a power bank, so it has no battery inside. Instead, you plug it into a USB-C wall plug and lay your phone on top. gomi builds it with an aluminium ring and screws rather than glue, so it can be taken apart and repaired.
Because every top is different, gomi lists each charger separately. Once a pad sells, it is gone.
It suits anyone who wants a charger that looks like a small piece of design rather than black plastic. Because no two tops match, it also works as a personal present.
gomi also makes power banks from the same recycled plastic, and our gomi power bank page covers those.
It needs a USB-C PD wall plug, and gomi recommends a 20W one. If you only have an old phone plug, you will need to buy one.
Its 15W output is also below the 25W that newer Qi2 chargers offer, so it will not top up a recent phone as quickly.
Finally, stock comes in drops. Between drops, every standard pad can show as sold out.
gomi sells its chargers direct from its own shop, with each one-off listed separately on its wireless charger page. We could not find gomi chargers on Amazon UK. gomi has also made a Barbie edition of the same pad, using plastic from donated dolls, which Wallpaper covered in September 2026.
£55 for a standard marbled pad on gomi's shop, when a drop is live.
No. It has no battery, so it has to be plugged in to charge a phone.
Yes. gomi says it works with all Qi-enabled devices, including iPhones, Android phones and AirPods.
Recycled plastic packaging waste, handmade into a marbled top in Brighton, inside an aluminium ring.
Yes. gomi's "gomi for life" promise commits it to repairing its products, and the charger is screwed together so it can be opened.
