Commown is a Cooperative that supports fair and sustainable electronics by leasing devices designed to be easily repaired. The electronics industry generates a huge amount of negative externalities, from the mines to the products' end-of-life. Many studies showed that the first priority is to reduce the number of electronic devices made and sold. However, this is not viable for companies that rely solely on the sale of these devices. There is therefore a need for another business model: Hardware as as Service (HaaS). The service includes providing smartphones (e.g. Fairphone), computers, headphones and managing repairs beyond the manufacturer warranty, with a decreasing gradually monthly subscription. Commown also offers free support on the software side. By choosing our service, you extend product lifetime, reduce material waste, and get a cost-effective option for smartphones and other electronics.
