Our impact

The greenest phone is the one
that already exists.

Every device we give a second life saves the carbon, water and rare metals it would take to build a brand-new one. Here's exactly how much — and what we do beyond the sale.

New vs. refurbished

One phone, a fraction of the footprint.

Up to 80% of a smartphone's lifetime emissions come from manufacturing — mining metals, refining glass, assembling and shipping. Buying refurbished skips nearly all of it.

Buying new
~85 kg CO₂e
✕Freshly mined cobalt, lithium & gold
✕~12,000 L of water per device
✕Global assembly & air freight
✕New packaging & accessories
Choosing reMint
~17 kg CO₂e
✓Reuses metals already in circulation
✓Near-zero new water demand
✓Local refurbishment, no new factory
✓Plastic-free, recycled packaging

The circular journey

A loop, not a landfill.

We keep devices whole and in use for as long as possible — and responsibly recover everything when they finally can't be.

1
Collect
Trade-ins, returns & overstock are gathered before they're discarded.
2
Restore
50-point inspection, genuine-grade repairs & a full data wipe.
3
Rehome
Graded honestly and sent to a new owner who'll use it for years.
4
Trade again
When they're done, we buy it back and the loop repeats.
♻
Recover
Truly end-of-life devices are recycled to reclaim every usable metal.

Beyond the sale

Our four commitments.

01
A tree for every order
We fund a native tree through certified reforestation partners with every device sold — restoring habitats, not just offsetting numbers.
250,000+ trees funded
02
Carbon-neutral delivery
Every shipment is measured and fully offset, sent in plastic-free, recycled packaging by low-emission couriers.
100% of orders offset
03
Zero device to landfill
If a phone can't be restored, we harvest working parts and recycle the rest through certified e-waste recovery. Nothing is dumped.
Certified R2 recycling
04
Repair, don't replace
We design every refurbishment around longevity — genuine-grade parts and free software support keep devices in use for years longer.
Built to last longer
A forest, growing

Every phone you rehome
plants a tree in the ground.

We've partnered with reforestation projects across three continents. Each order adds a native sapling — and you can watch the total climb.
