Nuvo is a designer and manufacturer of plastic wind instruments aimed at music education and beginners, founded in 2008 by Graham Lyons and Max Clissold. The company is headquartered in Hong Kong with manufacturing in China and distribution in the United States, and positions its products as a bridge between the classroom recorder and traditional band instruments.

Nuvo's catalog centers on lightweight, durable, washable instruments including the TooT and DooD (entry-level flute and clarinet-style instruments for young children), the jSax, jFlute, jHorn, Clarinéo, and Student Flute, along with their Soprano Recorder and Recorder+. The instruments use ergonomic key layouts and interchangeable fingering options designed to ease the transition to standard band instruments, and the hygienic, dishwasher-safe plastic construction is marketed toward schools and group teaching environments.

The brand is most associated with early-years and classroom music education rather than professional performance, and its WindStars curriculum is used alongside the instruments in school programs. Nuvo has received multiple NAMM Best Tools for Schools awards for its contributions to music education products.

Nuvo has 3 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Tenor Saxophones, Clarinets, and Flutes.
