With over 6.4 billion smartphone users in the world, changing how we interact with our phones – throughout its life cycle – is a positive step towards more eco-friendly use. Earth Day is a day devoted to protecting everyone’s home, our earth.
As part of this journey, at HMD Global, home of Nokia phones, we are making strides in how we imagine, design, manufacture and sell our phones, helping to keep them out of landfill and keep their phones for longer. This begins with our commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across our entire business in line with approved climate science so we can reach 50% by 2030 and Net Zero by 2050.
We are proud to have a Platinum EcoVadis Sustainability Rating. This means we are in the top 1% of businesses and 98th percentile of companies audited for their commitment to sustainable practices in the manufacturing of communications equipment.
Two of HMD’s phones available in South Africa; the Nokia X10 and Nokia X20 come with a compostable case, so it’s designed to last longer and disappear later. Included free in the box, the 100% compostable case reduces your waste and has been specifically designed to be tough on the ground but soft on the earth.
