Firstly, from a commercial perspective, refurbished phones shouldn’t be a risk. TMT First are an approved Apple, Microsoft and Samsung partner; our trained technicians use genuine parts, tooling and diagnostics to ensure our refurbished devices are in excellent condition – all coming with a 90-day warranty and optional 1 year warranty.
But let’s talk about the environmental impact and saving…
A typical tier one smartphone requires 47.9kg of CO2 to produce. Let’s say the screen is broken.
- Replacement – that’s another 47.9kg of CO2
- Screen Repair – that’s only 4.56kg of CO2
A saving of over 40kg of CO2 by ‘repair not replace’.
Thinking about buying refurbished devices?
- New – 47.9kg of CO2
- Refurbished – 10.21kg of CO2 required
A saving of over 37kg of CO2 by ‘keeping technology alive for longer’.
If you manage a device fleet, can you afford to ignore the cost and environmental benefits?
