# Bamboo iPhone Cases The Incase Bamboo Slider is Eco-Friendly and Stylish By Allison Love | Published 2010-05-31 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/incase-bamboo-slider References: [planetgreen.discovery](http://planetgreen.discovery.com/tech-transport/attention-iphone-users---if-you-need-a-sturdy-case-make-it-one-with-recycled-bamboo.html) & [goincase](http://www.goincase.com/products/detail/bamboo-slider-cl59221-b) The Incase Bamboo Slider [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casetify-bounce-case) case is an [eco-friendly and stylish protective covering](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collection-of-cases) made from recycled shards of bamboo. The phone is made from 40% recycled shards, which come from things like chopsticks and construction scaffolding. The Incase Bamboo Slider case is supposedly one of the [strongest iPhone protective cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-17-cases) on the market and comes in a variety of colors with a cool peppered look (I'm assuming it's caused by the recycled shards). Either way, this case is a great way to be green, while still looking stylish. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 64% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Eco-friendly Phone Accessories:** The Incase Bamboo Slider iPhone case demonstrates the trend of eco-friendly phone accessories, offering a disruptive innovation opportunity for companies to create sustainable and stylish protective coverings. - **Recycled Materials in Technology:** The use of recycled bamboo shards in the Incase Bamboo Slider case showcases the trend of incorporating recycled materials into technology products, presenting a disruptive innovation opportunity for companies to create environmentally-friendly tech accessories. - **Sustainable Fashion:** The stylish design of the Incase Bamboo Slider case aligns with the trend of sustainable fashion, opening up a disruptive innovation opportunity for companies to develop fashionable yet eco-friendly phone cases. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Sustainable Tech Accessories:** The Incase Bamboo Slider case reflects the sustainable tech accessories industry, where companies can explore disruptive innovation opportunities by creating eco-friendly and stylish protective coverings for electronic devices. - **Recycling and Upcycling:** The incorporation of recycled bamboo shards in the Incase Bamboo Slider case relates to the recycling and upcycling industry, indicating disruptive innovation opportunities for companies to repurpose materials and create sustainable products. - **Fashion and Accessories:** The stylish and eco-friendly design of the Incase Bamboo Slider case is relevant to the fashion and accessories industry, presenting disruptive innovation opportunities for companies to produce sustainable and trendy phone cases. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sustainable Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-13-case.md) - [Compostable Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecoblvd-mojave-collection.md) - [Compostable Polymer Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bellroy-bio-phone-case.md) - [Impact Protection Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casetify-bounce-case.md) - [Recycled Material Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/native-union-reclear-case.md) - [Eco-Friendly Earbud Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nimble-backstage-case.md) - [Sustainable Tactile Smartphone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/native-union-reclassic-case.md) - [Stylistic Sustainable Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collection-of-cases.md) - [Plantable Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/igreen-cover.md)
