PR Newswire

LOS ANGELES, April 23, 2024

Tech accessory brand CASETiFY leads the industry's sustainability efforts by truly giving new life to any worn out accessory through upcycling and creative art installations.

LOS ANGELES, April 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- CASETiFY, the global tech accessory brand loved by millennials, Gen Z, and Hollywood celebrities, released today its yearly sustainability Impact Report, shedding new light on the progress of its Re/CASETiFY™ upcycling program. Together with the updated sustainability figures, the brand has also announced its month-long calendar of events happening in the United States, South Korea, Australia, and China that invites local artists to create useful art pieces using recycled cases. All of these are part of the brand's ongoing efforts to make sure the end of any phone case is the beginning of a new one in all possible ways.

The Re/CASETiFY™ process starts with its bins, located at more than 40+ CASETiFY Studio physical stores where the brand sells its products globally. Users can donate their old smartphone and earbud cases into the bin anytime, receiving store credit in return.

Upon processing all discarded plastic, new accessories are created and sold both online in over 180 countries as well as in physical stores. To celebrate Earth Month, CASETiFY has released its Impact Report, where it details the achievements of its Re/CASETiFY™ Program.

CASETiFY's Impact Report: A Transformative Journey Towards Sustainability

Over 84 Tons Of Plastic Saved

Through the Re/CASETiFY™ global recycling

efforts, over 84,000 kg of plastic has been

spared from landfills and given a second life

through upcycling and repurposing into new

accessories.

The Rebirth Of Over 463,000 Trees

With USD$1 per every sustainable product

sold donated to the partners of

EARTHDAY.ORG, the brand has contributed

to planting 463,406 new trees back into

nature. This translates to an equivalent of

22,243,488 pounds of carbon emissions

removed from the atmosphere.

Re/CASETiFY™ Bins In Every Store

With a commitment to responsible recycling,

CASETiFY ensures that every CASETiFY

Studio store reserves space for customers to

recycle cases of any brand. The brand

continues incentivising consumers to take

care of their discarded cases.

Re/CASETiFY™ Across the Board

By the end of 2022, 80% of CASETiFY's

product portfolio was made with material from

recycled sources, 60% more than in 2021. In

2023, CASETiFY proudly announces that this

figure has increased to 100% usage of

recycled sources across all product

categories.
