Sustainable phone cases help us leaving a smaller foot print on earth.
Sustainability is the buzz word of our decade. But what exactly is sustainable? Sustainability is everything and nothing. That’s why every company must define sustainability for itself and its products.
For us at Brand.it, sustainability means:
1. Developing long-lasting products and thereby reducing the amount of waste
2. Conscious use of resources
3. Co2 neutral shipping
4. Separating waste
5. Avoiding plastic
Wouldn’t it be great if an everyday product vanished into thin air after use? Okay, we can’t dissolve into thin air. But we can turn a phone cover into earth. Our sustainable phone cases named “Turtle” are made of compostable plastic PLA and reinforced by adding bamboo fibers. This allows this cell phone case to be fully composted within 18 to 24 months.
Sustainability does not only include the product. At Brand.it, we also make sure that our phone cases are packaged sustainably. Instead of the plastic polybags that are common in our industry, we use paper bags that we have developed ourselves. To avoid unnecessary packaging waste, our cases are delivered in bulk as standard. The environmentally friendly paper bag is optional and available for an additional charge.

Sustainable phone cases, also called cell phone covers, primarily fulfill a protective function and at the same time they protect the environment.
A cell phone case is necessary to protect the expensive smartphone from scratches and damage. Thus, a cell phone cover not only saves costs but also conserves resources because devices are used longer and the need for spare parts is reduced.
However, cell phone cases have been made entirely of plastic until now. This fact brings with it the problem that cell phone cases are disposed of in the normal trash at the end of their life. Plastic products take about 50 years to fully decompose.
Due to this fact, the question of sustainable phone cases has arisen more and more in recent years. Compostable cell phone cases are a good alternative to the conventional plastic cell phone cases which are mostly made of TPU or silicone. However, the new cell phone cases made of compostable PLA plastic do not yet come close to the material properties of conventional plastics. But the development is progressing every year and will improve the material properties of sustainable plastics.
