Join us at the launch event of our new movement Merece " Contisystems

Electronic cards occupy a special place in our wallets. But what happens to them when they expire or become unusable for some other reason?

At Contisystems, as a supplier and personalizer of cards, we feel the need to do more to minimize the environmental impact of our activity. Every year we supply millions of cards and we know that each card leaves a footprint equivalent to 150 grams of carbon. Since each card is valid for 3 or 4 years, there is a high turnover and many unused cards. And we already know where unused cards usually end up... in the garbage can! In other words, in addition to the carbon footprint they leave behind, this waste will also contribute to filling up landfills.

It was in this context that we decided to create a movement to give unused cards the ending they deserve, an ecologically responsible one.

Our aim is to involve as many organizations as possible in encouraging companies and individuals to contribute to the environmentally responsible treatment of card waste with electronic components (whether banking or not). Therefore:

if you work for a company that issues cards, don't miss out and encourage your company to join the movement;
if you know someone who works for a card issuing company, share this article and encourage them to participate;
If you also want to contribute on a personal level, be sure to follow the movement to find out what to do and pressure your card issuers to get involved;
if you work in another sector that generates untreated waste, get inspired and create your own waste treatment cycle; we are available to share experiences and contribute in any way we can to initiatives in other sectors.

We all have a role to play in creating a more ecologically responsible world, will you play yours?

Join us and follow the online broadcast of the launch event of this new movement on October 8th between 09:30 and 11:30.

We will be counting on the participation of the first members of the movement and on our partners who will enable us to give the cards the ending they deserve.

We're counting on you, our planet deserves it.
