With mobile sales at their highest level in history, it’s easy to see why environmentalists around the world are concerned about mobile phone recycling. If you choose to recycle your mobile phone there are a great many options, and you should start with your mobile manufacturer. Many cell phone manufacturers offer in-house cell phone recycling for those people who have purchased their handsets.
Because mobiles contain so many toxic chemicals, responsible mobile phone manufactures such as Sagem have chosen to offer mobile phone recycling services. These services are sponsored by Sagem because them company chooses to adopt “green” strategies. The “green” manufacturing principles don’t just refer to the company’s recycling programs. It also refers to the company’s manufacturing processes, and their decision to use more environmentally-friendly materials in the construction of their mobile phones.
Sagem, like many European mobile phone makers, offers two ways that you can recycle mobile phones. You can either choose to take your mobile to a local collection centre, such as a local recycling centre, or even take it back to the store where you purchased the mobile. Alternatively, you have the option to contact the company directly, by sending them a letter or an e-mail requesting that they send you the requisite materials you need to send your mobile phone back to them in the post. Many cell phone manufacturers provide their customers with incentives to recycle; for example credits toward a new mobile. You may wish you inquire about this when you contact Sagem about recycling your old mobile phone.
