In the television report entitled Smartphone Invasion, broadcast by the current affairs programme Falò on RSI, the world of smartphones was explored, highlighting the treasures hidden inside them and the unglorified end they come to when disposed of too lightly. Smartphones contain precious metals such as gold, silver and palladium, which often end up in landfills without being recovered.

Ecomet Refining was presented as a virtuous example of recovering precious metals from smartphones. Thanks to its advanced technologies and sustainable processes, Ecomet Refining manages to extract and recycle these materials, contributing to the reduction of e-waste and promoting a circular economy. The report highlighted the importance of proper disposal and recovery of smartphones, underlining how Ecomet Refining is making a difference in this field.
