Anokimobi, the UK product company behind a number of eco-friendly and innovative phone accessories has just launched the iPhone 4 ecoskin™ - a precision-made cover produced in the UK from recycled high grade plastic and impregnated with silver ions to reduce bacteria levels on mobile phones.
The ecoskin™ features the same Biomaster® antibacterial protection technology used in hospitals after a recent Which Magazine report highlighted the potential for mobile phones to carry high levels of bugs.
Tom Tranter, Director of Anokimobi says: “Our existing e-pouch™ range of pouches and cases already addresses issues that our customers feel strongly about, being made from recycled plastic, organic cotton and bamboo.
“But we were surprised by what Which Magazine discovered about bacteria on phones and we have worked with the producers of Biomaster® to get this advanced hygiene technology into our products.“
The ecoskin™ continues Anokimobi’s tradition of being environmentally friendly as both the cover and its packaging are made from recycled materials and can themselves be recycled. Furthermore, the product, unlike virtually all its competitors, is made entirely in the UK thus also reducing its carbon footprint.
Tranter adds: “We know that as well as addressing their values and concerns, our customers want a great-looking and well-made product. We’ve ensured that the ecoskin™ is a superb fit and allows access to all the usual iPhone 4 functions; it’s precision manufactured in the UK by the same company that makes components for Aston Martin.”
