COSTA MESA, CALIF. (PRWEB) AUGUST 29, 2018
Nimble — a consumer tech brand committed to creating high-quality, eco-friendly tech products at lower costs — announced its launch today. The direct-to-consumer startup also introduced its wireless charging products and 18W USB Type-C PD portable chargers as the first of many product categories to come.
Leveraging the industry experience of its co-founders, Nimble wants to change how people think about the technology they use every day and its impact on the world.
To accomplish this, Nimble focuses on beautiful design and leading performance; using sustainable materials for products and packaging; holding suppliers to strict guidelines; providing transparency around production and pricing; and addressing the growing problem of electronic waste through a recycling initiative tied to the purchase of every product.
“We believe people should know how their products are made, where they come from and what the impact is on the world,” said Ross Howe, CEO and Co-Founder of Nimble. “Simply put, we make great personal tech products, more thoughtfully.”
LOW-IMPACT MATERIALS:
Nimble products use plant-based bioplastics; fabric made from 100% organic hemp and recycled PET from plastic bottles; recyclable aluminum; zero paints or toxic substances; and each includes a signature speckle TPE texture made with natural mineral crystals to create a design unique to every product.
Nimble’s plastic-free packaging is 100% recycled scrap paper with no harmful inks, adhesives or dyes; making it 100% compostable.
Along with low-impact materials, Nimble prioritizes product reliability and exclusive features.

RECYCLING INITIATIVE:
In partnership with Homeboy Electronics Recycling, Nimble is introducing the One-for-One Tech Recovery Project. To help offset the growing amount of e-waste, Nimble will recycle up to one pound of e-waste for every product sold.
Each product comes with an envelope for mailing in old or unused electronics directly to Homeboy for proper reclamation. Nimble also provides a free shipping label, which customers can print from its website.
Nimble is committed to becoming e-waste neutral by 2022 through recovery of an equal amount of e-waste as it adds in new products each year.
Based in Los Angeles, Homeboy Electronics Recycling offers certified and secure recycling and data destruction services to businesses, governmental organizations and residences while providing permanent jobs for women and men who face systemic barriers to employment.
