Plenty of people choose plastic phone cases for their lightweight forms, fun designs and durability and LifeProof is now introducing a more sustainable take on this popular accessory with its new line of cases called WĀKE. This new line of protective phone accessories is made from recycled ocean-based plastics, which helps to keep the materials out of waterways. To reference this, the cases boast undulating, wave-like designs that mimic the movement of water.
The WĀKE cases can be purchased for a variety of different phones, including the new second-generation iPhone SE. The slim, single-piece cases are made from a minimum of 85% recycled ocean-based plastic, including ropes and nets.
To protect the world's waterways, LifeProof is supporting the work of Water.org, the Coral Reef Alliance or American Rivers.
