JT has today announced a series of new initiatives to further strengthen its commitment to building a circular economy – making it easier for customers to recycle devices and access more sustainable technology options.
This builds on JT’s partnership announced in October with We Buy Any Phone, which saw the launch of an online recycling platform offering customers a simple way to trade in old devices in exchange for cashback. The platform has already helped drive increased device reuse across the Islands.
As part of its next phase, JT has now introduced secure in-store recycling through a new partnership with IT Hardware Services CI (ITHSCI), enabling customers to safely and conveniently drop off old or unused devices at dedicated recycling boxes in JT’s shops. The initiative is designed to ensure devices are either refurbished, reused, or responsibly recycled, preventing unnecessary waste.
Alongside this, JT has also advanced their supply of high-quality, A-grade refurbished iPhones and pre-loved iPads. Available both online and in-store, the range offers customers greater choice at a more accessible price point – while supporting a more sustainable approach to technology consumption.
Helene Narcy, Chief Financial Officer at JT, said “We are committed to playing our part in creating a more sustainable future. By strengthening our circular economy initiatives, we’re making it easier for our customers to recycle their old devices and make more environmentally conscious choices when upgrading. Refurbished technology is a key part of that journey, offering both environmental and financial benefits.”
Stuart Moseley, Director at ITHSCI, added: “We’re delighted to be partnering with JT on this important initiative. By introducing secure and accessible recycling points in-store, we’re helping ensure more devices are processed responsibly and kept within the circular economy for as long as possible.”
Together, these initiatives form part of JT’s wider sustainability strategy, focused on reducing waste, extending the lifecycle of devices, and supporting customers and communities to make more sustainable choices.
