Responsible innovation

Technogym produces high-quality, effective training solutions and is committed to reducing their environmental impact. Planet-friendly innovations range from using recycled plastic in some products to applying the principles of the circular economy to product design and manufacture.

Sustainable Refurbished Products

The "Refurbish" service is a process of recovering equipment at the end of its first usage cycle that involves the accurate disassembly of each machine and the separation of components by type. The refurbish process is organised into different product lines:

› The Selection strength line;
› The Excite and Excite Live line;
› Some functional products;
› The Artis line.

These products undergo a regeneration programme that involves a complete overhaul, with replacement, regeneration and repainting of the components to return them to their original condition. All refurbished products are covered by a one-year warranty and are updated to the latest version of the software, ensuring that they do not use outdated technologies.

In 2025, 35% of the withdrawn machines belonging to the product lines in scope for the refurbishment process were reconditioned. Technogym's reconditioning process is perfectly aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), in particular with SDG 12, which promotes responsible production and consumption patterns. The Group is committed to recovering materials that would otherwise be sent to landfill, ensuring that all materials that cannot be recovered are separated appropriately.

In addition, a new model for reconditioning products, called 'Certified Pre-Owned', has been introduced as of 2025. To date, the project is in the pilot phase on two product lines in Italy and the UK with the aim of progressively replacing the 'Refurbish' service in all geographical areas, while at the same time expanding the potential scope of the process to all used Technogym products. This new approach involves a partial reconditioning activity, carried out directly on site. In this case, qualified technicians trained to guarantee the reliability and conformity of the product intervene only on the most relevant and most worn parts, without renewing all parts of the product.

Self-powered products

Our care for the environment and in the use of resources is also reflected in our products. The Technogym catalogue, which includes both cardio and strength training equipment, is equipped with both electrically powered and self-powered products, i.e. products that do not need to be connected to the electricity grid.

Specifically, strength products, with the exception of specific lines such as Biostrength, by their nature do not require electricity, while both powered and non-powered versions are available for cardio products. The self-powered cardio products have a small generator connected to the mechanisms of the machine, activated by the user's movement during exercise. The generator produces the energy necessary to power the machine, the display and the brake control system.

For some years now, Technogym has launched its own self-powered products, but the research to continue developing and designing solutions that reduce environmental impact is still ongoing. In 2023, the Technogym catalogue included seven self-powered products. In 2024, this number increased to 13 and remained the same in 2025. Altogether, these products allow a unit saving of about 0.5 tons of CO2 equivalent, compared to traditional models with external power supply. This figure corresponds to 100% of the savings achievable per single product, as self-powered products completely eliminate energy consumption compared to the corresponding versions with external power supply.
