Sprint launches range of green phone accessories
TT Bureau |  |  12 Sep 2009

US major Sprint announced the expansion of product line for accessories including chargers and device cases targeted towards environment conscious consumers. These will be available in the new dedicated ‘green sections’ set-up at its retail outlets.

Complimenting its solar powered charger, the company has now introduced an All-In-One-Vehicle and Wall charger. This product also features an inline USB port allowing two devices to be charged simultaneously. It is available for $ 39.99.

The company further plans to introduce a new SOLIO solar powered charger in October.

 “We are pleased to offer Sprint customers ‘greener’ options for their wireless devices,” said Ralph Reid, vice president of Corporate Social Responsibility for Sprint. “Sprint currently offers more eco-friendly accessories than any other U.S. telecommunications company. Sprint is a leader in the wireless industry with its environmental efforts, as shown by the launch of the Samsung Reclaim, a growing portfolio of eco-friendly accessories and our ambitious wireless recycling efforts.”

The new mobile phone cases launched by Sprint are recyclable and compatible with nearly all devices in the Sprint portfolio, and are available in two sizes for $19.99 each.

Moreover whenever consumers purchase Samsung Reclaim from Sprint, $2 of the proceeds will benefit the Nature Conservancy’s Adopt an Acre program, which supports land conservation across the United States and protects some of the world’s most beautiful and important natural habitats.
