Cinks Labs
Bürobedarf
Cinks Labs sells 3D-printed mechanical keyboards, macropads and accessories such as custom keycap sets, rotary knobs and desk mats. Most items sit in the €120-€350 range, placing the brand between mid-range and premium. Orders are taken only through the company’s own web-store; weekly stock drops are announced on Discord and sell out within minutes. The brand’s signature is a “stacked-plate” construction that exposes the printed layers and lets buyers choose recycled PETG or carbon-fiber-infused nylon in eight translucent colors. Every PCB is hot-swap, QMK/VIA-ready and paired with a matching CNC-aluminium knob. The best-known line is the Pocket-series 40 % board, praised for its 300 g weight and gasket-mounted plate that delivers a soft, marbly sound profile. Customers are software developers, mechanical-keyboard hobbyists and minimal-desk enthusiasts who value open-source firmware and visible sustainability. They like small-batch drops, the ability to pick exact plate colors, and the fact that each unit is printed, assembled and shipped from a single Berlin workshop. Cinks Labs competes with boutique gasket-mount keyboards that use CNC aluminium or injection-moulded cases. It differentiates by leveraging 3D printing for rapid colorway rotation, lighter builds and lower tooling costs, while still offering gasket flex, premium finishes and EU-based fulfillment.
