mobilezone drives CO₂ reduction through its Second Life business
PRESS RELEASE
Rotkreuz, January 15, 2026
In the 2025 reporting year, mobilezone was able to save around 900 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents solely through the sale of refurbished smartphones under the jusit brand. This saving is equivalent to 187 trips around the Earth in an average car. The calculation was carried out in collaboration with long‑time partner ConClimate, based on a detailed product carbon footprint.
The analysis examined the entire circular process, which takes place entirely in Switzerland. This includes the buyback process in one of the roughly 125 mobilezone shops or via postal delivery, certified refurbishment and subsequent quality control in Rotkreuz, and resale. The calculation of the CO₂ footprint is based on a scientifically grounded assessment of various refurbishment scenarios.
Livia Aschwanden, Head of jusit, explains: "Our refurbished business enables CO₂ savings of around 900 tonnes and demonstrates how circular models concretely contribute to sustainability. The growing demand from our customers for jusit devices on jusit.ch and in our mobilezone shops underscores the relevance of this offering. Our high quality standards — all devices are refurbished and certified internally — and the exclusive use of original parts additionally contribute to our success."
The refurbished market continues to grow steadily and therefore offers significant potential for additional CO₂ savings. By reusing smartphones, the lifespan of the device is extended, resource‑ and emission‑intensive new production is reduced, and the use of rare raw materials is minimised.
The successful emissions savings achieved through jusit devices also contribute to the four UN Sustainable Development Goals to which mobilezone has committed:
• SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth
• SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
• SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production
• SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals
