La Hormiga Verde

Giving electronic
waste a new life

From unused devices to planters
for future generations.

It's not lights out,
it's a fresh start.

Being a digital bank means operating through electronic devices. At imagin, we're aware of this, which is why, together with Hormiga Verde, we have launched a project in Extremadura to give electronic waste a new life and reduce its environmental impact.

This project reinforces our commitment to the environment, promoting responsible reuse and fostering social inclusion by creating opportunities for people with disabilities.

imagin & La Hormiga Verde

Together with Hormiga Verde, we aim to recycle more than 2,000 kg of electronic waste, transforming it into planters for schools in Extremadura. We'll also be aiding social inclusion by supporting projects like this special employment centre.

Hormiga Verde promotes the circular economy by managing this waste, reducing the environmental impact and fostering sustainable practices in the community.

What impact do we want to make?

  • + 2,000 kg of waste repurposed.

  • 66 planters donated to schools.

  • More than 133 kg of carbon offset.

The imagin community: driving the change

At imagin, every action matters. That’s why our community is at the heart of this challenge. For every use of the calculator, we transformed 1 kg of electronic waste and gave it a second life.

Because every small gesture counts when it comes to caring for the planet. The planters are the result of collecting and repurposing 2,000 kg of waste. Equivalent to:

  • 200 printers.

  • 1,000 routers.

  • More than 5,000 chargers.

66 planters donated to schools

Raising awareness by example

We introduced young people to the process of managing and repurposing electronic waste by donating 66 planters to schools in Extremadura.

Using the QR on each planter, they were able to learn about the complete process, from collection to reuse.
