Empowering inclusion through innovation: Everphone and dis-connect partner with German organization Lebenshilfe to drive inclusive circular economy 

Inclusive workspaces driving meaningful impact 

At the heart of this partnership is the commitment to provide meaningful opportunities for individuals with disabilities, who make up nearly half of the workforce in dis-connect’s German facility. Lebenshilfe’s involvement extends beyond employment support; their efforts create an inclusive environment where individuals can thrive, contribute, and build skills.

This special collaboration involves dis-connect processing and refurbishing Everphone's devices to the highest standards. Lebenshilfe employees play a pivotal role in the testing process, ensuring devices adhere to rigorous benchmarks. Additionally, all packaging for Everphone products is carefully customized and folded by Lebenshilfe workers, with Everphone covering additional costs to support the initiative.

AI-powered grading revolutionizing the circular economy 

dis-connect recently unveiled a fully automated AI-powered grading and processing center, using robots and machines designed by FutureDial. This technology ensures precise, accurate grading of devices, enabling partners and customers to make eco-conscious decisions and minimizing risk. By returning devices to the circular economy efficiently, the initiative maximizes resource utilization while reducing waste.

Pioneering change together 

As dis-connect, Everphone and Lebenshilfe continue their partnership, their mission is clear: drive change by advancing technology and empowering individuals. Their shared vision not only reduces environmental impact but also highlights the importance of fostering inclusion in the workplace.
