WE BELIEVE IN A DIGNIFIED AND FAIR WORLD

Why reshape ceramics

At Reshape Ceramics, we create pieces with purpose.
We believe in the power of second opportunities — for the materials we use and, above all, for the lives we help transform.

We are RESHAPE's social business, where RESHAPE is an organization committed to the fair, dignified and sustainable reintegration of people who are or have been in prison. Through ceramics, we offer training, inclusion and employment, paving a real path toward personal and professional rebuilding.

Each piece is handmade and crafted with an eye for detail. From mold to hands, from kiln to table, every creation carries a gesture of transformation, responsibility and social impact.

With timeless design, thoughtful aesthetics and a commitment to sustainability and quality, Reshape Ceramics pieces are more than just functional objects — they are expressions of resilience, imperfect beauty and renewed hope.

RESHAPE REINTEGRATION PROCESS

1. SOFT SKILLS TRAINING

Still in Prison, everyone passes through a soft skills development program.

2. TRANSITORY EMPLOYMENT

We hire them (inside and outside prison), and we train them on the job.

3. INDIVIDUAL SUPPORT

Our professional staff, supports individually each of the artisans in various dimensions of their life

4. AUTONOMY

Once their life is stabilised, and they have the tools to be autonomous, our last task is to find them a new job.
