With the market launch of Recaro Gaming, the youngest subsidiary of the Recaro Group, Recaro has now officially entered the gaming market as an internationally established brand for seating solutions. “We are presenting an innovative product to the gaming community that brings tangible benefits to dedicated players,” says Dr. Oliver Krockenberger, CEO of Recaro Gaming. “Recaro seats have always been the first of their kind, in motor sports, on the road, in aviation – and now in gaming: With the Recaro Exo as ‘First Of Its Kind,’ we are redefining the upper segment of the gaming seat product category.”

The Recaro team designed the product through intensive interaction with the gaming community. “Our seat was developed with players for players. At the same time, this product also incorporates the solid ergonomic competence of the experts from the Recaro Group," says Efstratios Putuludis, Deputy Managing Director of Recaro Gaming and an active gamer himself. “In our product, we combine our decades of know-how as seating experts with the special requirements of gamers.”
