Nimble's new screen protection technology uses 45% recycled glass and a biodegradable paper installation tool, revolutionizing how glass screen protection is made today.
COSTA MESA, Calif., Sept. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Nimble®--originator of ethically made tech accessories--announced SUSTAIN GLASS™ Screen Protection line for the iPhone 14 Series. Made with an industry-leading 45% certified recycled glass and a plastic-free installation system, SUSTAIN GLASS is designed to do two things; 1) protect phone screens, and 2) demonstrate how screen protectors can be more responsibly produced in 2022.
"As a percent of product weight, the average retail packaging for screen protection uses 12 times more single-use plastic than any other mobile accessory," said Ross Howe, Co-founder and CEO of Nimble. "Glass comes from natural materials, and is infinitely recyclable. Glass products shouldn't add plastic waste to our ecosystem."
Nimble packages SUSTAIN GLASS in a full, post-consumer paper design (with no metallic or UV enhancements) to create an inventive packaging solution that is truly recyclable. Unlike single-use plastic application trays included in most screen protectors sold today, Nimble designed a simple, yet reliably accurate installation system that's made entirely of recycled paper pulp.
As a material, glass can be infinitely reused without loss in quality or purity. Nimble leverages the 100% recyclability of waste glass to create a durable screen protector that conserves raw material, requires 30% less energy to produce, and reduces CO2 emissions by up to 50% compared to screen protectors made with virgin glass.

In 2018, Nimble launched by using recycled materials for all products, then introduced REPLAY™ Certified Post-Consumer Materials in 2020 to establish a better standard in personal tech manufacturing. REPLAY represents the shared duty to reclaim existing waste, and turn it back into raw materials for new products. By merging 100% certified recycled materials and UL safety standards, REPLAY successfully combines sustainability targets with globally recognized product reliability.
