Reclaim™ is the first mobile phone in the U.S. built
using “Bio-Plastic” materials extracted from corn. This
biodegradable material makes up 40 percent of the
phone’s casing. The Reclaim™ has trace amounts of
Brominate flame retardant (BFR) and is free of polyvinyl
chloride (PVC), two factors that follow the
recommendations of leading green electronics
advisors. Overall, at least 80 percent of the Reclaim™ is
made up of recyclable materials. Reclaim™ meets
European standards for RoHS compliance, which
means the device has no Cadmium, Mercury,
Hexavalent Chromium, Polybrominated Biphenyls and
Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers.
