There are around 40 minerals in smartphones. Gold is one of them. Gold mining is linked to lots of serious issues, like dangerous working conditions, child labor, poor wages and financing conflict. We are making gold sourcing fairer for everyone involved.

Phones are complex, but they can be made better. And the electronics supply chain is just as complicated. Making phones helps us open up the processes behind production and address the challenges we uncover. Each Fairphone contributes to a more ethical electronics industry.

We care about what goes into our phones. So we became the first phone manufacturer to integrate Fairtrade gold into our supply chain. And that’s just one of the materials that we’re sourcing more responsibly. We want to show others in the industry what’s possible, and inspire them make similar changes.

You care about what goes into your products. You care about people, our planet and where your products come from. Our phone is made for people just like you. We’re doing things differently to make a positive impact across our phones’ entire lifecycle.

You’re telling the world you want fairer electronics. There are already 160,000 people who have a Fairphone. They’re a community of pioneers who believe in putting social and environmental values first. When you buy a Fairphone, you’re telling the world you want electronics to be fairer.

You have a golden opportunity to make an impact. The more we grow, the more we can influence how electronics are made, used, reused and recycled. Now is your golden opportunity to join the pioneers!
