A smartphone that's ethically sourced.
SOURCING
Raw materials that are fairly mined and refined.
At our smartphone company, ethical practices extend deeply into our raw material sourcing and refining processes. Unlike many in the industry, we prioritize transparency and integrity, ensuring that every step—from sourcing minerals responsibly to refining processes—upholds ethical standards and respects human rights
Ethical Sourcing of Raw Materials
In the smartphone industry, concerns about ethical sourcing of raw materials are significant. Many companies procure minerals like cobalt and coltan from regions where child labor and unsafe working conditions prevail. These minerals are crucial for the production of smartphone batteries and processors. In contrast, our company meticulously selects suppliers who adhere to strict ethical standards, ensuring no exploitation of workers and no engagement of underage labor.
We will prioritize partnerships with mines and refineries that provide fair wages, safe working conditions, and opportunities for community development. By advocating for ethical practices in sourcing, we not only uphold human rights but also contribute to sustainable development in the regions where we operate.
Responsible Refining Processes
Beyond ethical sourcing, the refining processes in smartphone manufacturing can also impact human rights and environmental sustainability. Refineries that process minerals like gold and tin often face scrutiny for their environmental practices and treatment of workers. Some companies have been accused of turning a blind eye to child labor and unsafe conditions in these facilities. At our company, we partner with refineries that prioritize responsible practices, including environmental stewardship and worker welfare.
We will ensure that our refining partners comply with international labor standards and environmental regulations, minimizing our ecological footprint and supporting ethical treatment of workers. By integrating these practices into our supply chain, we demonstrate our commitment to ethical refinement and responsible production, setting a standard of integrity in the smartphone industry.
VEGAN AND CRUELTY-FREE
No animal products or testing done here.
We will be dedicated to veganism and cruelty-free practices, distinguishing us from competitors who often test components on animals or incorporate animal-derived materials. We will prioritize ethical sourcing and production methods to ensure every aspect of our smartphones aligns with sustainability and compassion.
Vegan Components and Materials
In smartphone manufacturing, numerous components often contain animal-derived materials or byproducts. Examples include adhesives with animal-based gelatins and dyes derived from insects or animal fats used in screens or casings. Additionally, animal testing for safety assessments remains common among various companies. In contrast, our smartphones are crafted using vegan materials like plant-based adhesives and non-animal derived dyes and coatings.
We will strictly avoid animal testing, ensuring a cruelty-free approach from design through delivery. By embracing these alternatives, we uphold ethical standards while minimizing environmental impacts associated with animal agriculture.
Ethical Sourcing and Production
The supply chain of smartphone manufacturing can involve practices conflicting with vegan and cruelty-free values, such as sourcing minerals from regions contributing to habitat destruction and environmental degradation. At our company, we prioritize responsible mineral sourcing and partner with suppliers adhering to ethical labor standards and environmental regulations. Our manufacturing facilities operate under humane conditions, ensuring ethical production practices. Choosing our smartphones means aligning with a brand committed to ethical and sustainable practices, setting a new standard in the industry.
