Sustainability vision of mobilezone
For mobilezone, practising sustainability means embodying responsibility across all facets of our organisation. This includes fostering a safe and attractive workplace for our employees and providing our customers with thorough and expert guidance throughout the entire lifecycle of a device, from purchase and repairs to refurbishment and disposal. We build on long-term customer relationships and, where possible, offer sustainable or environmentally neutral alternatives. In the upstream value chain (e.g. suppliers and manufacturers) and in the downstream value chain (e.g. customers and users), we minimise negative impacts and maximise or optimise positive impacts. In doing so, we strive to minimise our ecological footprint and foster long-term success while adhering to relevant laws and guidelines at all times.
