Dumbphones - stripped down phones without apps, like the phones we all used 15 years ago - are coming back into style. But there’s a big problem: dumbphones are unlikely to be recycled or refurbished, according to James Murdock, co-founder of Alchemy, the world’s largest circular tech company. His company has refreshed and resold more than six million devices across the world. In this podcast, Murdock talks about the environmental impact of e-waste, and how we can create a circular economy for devices, which is better for the planet and our pockets. “People and businesses who buy these refurbished devices are making a sustainability impact, saving carbon and also saving money – significant amounts of money,” says Murdock. “You can save money while doing the right thing for the environment.” James Murdock Alchemy is the fastest-growing circular tech company in the world. They are global experts in recovering, refreshing, and remarketing electronic devices such as phones, tablets, laptops, and wearables. “We recover, refresh and remarket,” says Murdock. “We handle a lot of mobility products like cell phones, and a lot of laptops and tablets from premium brands like Samsung, Apple and Google. We have 400 employees at Alchemy, each with a Mac and a phone, and none of us have ever had a new device. They are all refurbished.” Visit www.alchemyglobalsolutions.com
