At a time when environment friendly products are important and in demand, Nokia has come up with the concept to roll out 40 new models that use bio degradable components which include biodegradable phone covers and recyclable battery that are energy efficient and non toxic. This announcement came from D Shivakumar who is the VP and managing director of Nokia India.

Nokia has already abolished the use of polyvinyl chloride in all phones. The 3110 from Nokia was earlier launched with components that were 65% recyclable. The new environment friendly models will be launched by the end of the year. Normally, mobile phones contain non-biodegradable and toxic materials like cadmium, lithium in their batteries which can harm the environment if not disposed off properly.

Nokia is also taking the initiative to invest in “green bins” at all its priority centers where customers can drop in their old phones for recycling purposes.That is a great step from Nokia towards a healthy and environment friendly life, hoping all others market players will follow suit.
