Mobilink Launches Handset Recycling Project!

Post Type :
As a caring corporate citizen and an environmentally responsible organization, Mobilink has initiated a project to collect mobile phones and accessories no longer in use, refurbish repairable items and donate them to the Pakistan Association of the Deaf and the Disabled Welfare Association. All donations will greatly benefit hearing impaired and physically disabled individuals by connecting them with the people around them and providing an essential source of communication.

Items beyond repair will be disposed of in an environmentally-friendly manner in order to ensure toxic chemicals found in mobile phones do not pollute the air or leak into our groundwater.

What is useless to you could bring connectivity to someone’s life.

How to can help

1. You can help by donating your unwanted cell phones, batteries, chargers and accessories (irrespective of the model and make). Simply drop them in the recycling bins that have been especially placed for this purpose at Mobilink CS centres.

2. If a recycling bin is not visible to you, please ask the customer sales representative for assistance.

What will happen to a phone after it is placed in the recycling bin

Mobilink has teamed up with Ring Distributors to refurbish old cell phones using the highest environmental and social standards. Cell phones and accessories received which can be repaired will be refurbished and passed on to the Pakistan Association of the Deaf as well as the Disabled Welfare Association.

Those handsets, batteries and accessories which are beyond repair, will be given to Wastebusters (www.wastebusters.com.pk), a certified waste management organization, for environmentally safe disposal.


Together we can make a difference!
