A mobile phone made entirely from recycled material. [Nokia](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nokia-6310) unveiled 'remade', an environment friendly phone concept at the [Mobile World Congress](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mobile-suit-gundam-seed). The silver-coloured handset's chasis is made with plastic from drink bottles while its rubber keypad is made from old car tyres. Nokia said in a statement; "The idea behind the concept was to see if it was possible to create a device made from nothing new. It has been designed using [recycled materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oura-ring-4-charging-case) that avoid the need for natural resources, reduce landfill, and allow for more energy efficient production. It is designed to help inspire and stimulate discussion on how mobile devices might be made in the future." Remade is part of Nokia's ongoing environmental effort, such as its contribution to the recent Greener Gadgets Conference: ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.7/10 - Popularity: 80% | Activity: 22% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Sustainable Electronics:** Opportunity for creating electronic devices using recycled materials to reduce environmental impact. - **Circular Economy:** Potential for developing a closed-loop system where products are recycled and reused to minimize waste. - **Eco-friendly Design:** Emerging trend of incorporating sustainable materials and practices into product development. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Consumer Electronics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for manufacturers to create sustainable and eco-friendly electronic devices. - **Waste Management:** Potential for transforming waste into valuable resources through recycling and promoting a circular economy. - **Product Design:** Opportunity for designers to incorporate eco-friendly materials and practices in creating innovative products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Artful Aluminum Phones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phone-1.md) - [Repairable Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forever-phone-case.md) - [Recycled Plastic Game Controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xbox-wireless-controller-remix-special-edition.md) - [Refurbished Modular Phones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fairphone-3-1.md) - [Plantable Phone Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/igreen-cover.md) - [Industrial Cellphone Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nokia-n90-x-nothing-concept.md) - [Recycled Waste Speakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gomi.md) - [Easily Repairable Smartphone Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nokia-g22.md) - [Resurrected Used Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/project-afterlife.md)
