Fairphone is driving change in the electronics industry by making smartphones in a way that puts social and environmental values first. It is changing the way phones are made in four key areas: a long-lasting modular design that allows consumers to repair and upgrade their phones, limiting waste; fair and sustainable materials sourced with conflict-free minerals; good working conditions with improved satisfaction and representation; and support for recycling efforts to move closer to a circular economy. Fairphone has sold 160,000 units to date, a large majority of which through business to consumer sales on its website.
