Commenting on the same, Yug Bhatia, CEO and Founder of ControlZ, said, “Making old cell phones desirable is an important part of our efforts to promote conscious consumption by effectively increasing the lifecycle of the phone. At controlZ, we believe in the power of recycling to secure a greener earth. By renewing smartphones, we can reduce our impact on the environment and make them more eco-friendly.
