In a bold move towards sustainability, Globe is ramping up the use of eco-friendly SIMs, introducing the product to Globe Prepaid and TM customers.
This innovation makes eco-friendly SIMs available to Globe’s entire mobile base, with over 96% of mobile customers composed of Globe Prepaid and TM users. Globe previously launched eco-SIMs in 2022 for postpaid users, becoming the first Philippine telco company to use recycled plastic for its SIM beds.
By transitioning from virgin plastic SIMs to SIMs made from 100% recycled plastic, Globe Prepaid and TM are taking a proactive stance in environmental responsibility. This shift aims to support Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 12 on Responsible Consumption and Production and SDG 13 on Climate Action.
“Sustainability is at the heart of what we do,” said Yoly Crisanto, Globe Chief Sustainability and Corporate Communications Officer. “We continue to look for areas in the business where our practice leads to greater impact.”
Eric Tanbauco, Globe’s Head of Consumer Mobile Business said, “The launch of our eco-SIMs is just one of the many ways Globe is working towards a greener Philippines, and we invite our customers to be part of this journey.”
As sustainability becomes a key priority for consumers, Globe continues to integrate eco-friendly initiatives into its services. This move resonates deeply with today’s customers, especially Gen Z, who demand real action from brands on climate change. At the same time, TM remains the top choice for value-conscious consumers, proving that sustainability and affordability can go hand in hand. With TM, users can contribute to sustainability in small but impactful ways, without added costs. This ensures that customers can enjoy a consistent connection while making a positive difference for the planet.
Beyond eco-SIMs, Globe continuously integrates green initiatives into its operations. These efforts include green network solutions, the use of renewable energy, a shift to electric vehicles, and other climate action strategies that help minimize environmental impact.
Globe Prepaid and TM’s eco-SIMs will soon be available nationwide, making it easier for customers to participate in meaningful changes toward a more sustainable future. Through this initiative, Globe reaffirms its role as a leader in responsible and innovative telecom solutions, ensuring that every connection contributes to a greener tomorrow.
