The earth is not as bottomless as Mary Poppins’s bag: we can’t keep taking from it. Our resources are gradually running out. The good news? We can do something about it! Together with Recupel and Black Box Revelation, we’re looking for at least 3000 old mobile phones and smartphones. The plan is simple: you exchange your old devices for a ticket to an exclusive Black Box Revelation concert or concert vouchers, while Recupel recovers and recycles the materials. Win-win! 

It’s true: the answer to our raw materials crisis has probably been gathering dust in your stuffed drawer. Smartphones are more than 90% recyclable and contain a range of valuable metals and minerals such as platinum, gold, silver, palladium, and copper. Recupel is an expert at dismantling old devices and recycling valuable materials from them.   

See an exclusive (Black Box Revelation) concert in return

So, it’s time to say goodbye to your old (smart)phones, because now you can get something very special in return thanks to AB, Recupel, and Black Box Revelation. For every device you bring in or send in by Bpost, you’ll receive a concert voucher for 5 euros. The more devices, the more concert vouchers!   

If you hand in two old devices, you can also opt for an exclusive concert by Black Box Revelation op 28 January 2024. Jan & Dries will play an intimate set in the AB Club just for you recyclers!

How do I recycle my old devices? 

Easy. Drop them off in the Recupelbox in AB the next time you attend a concert, or send them by Bpost. Do you want to wipe your device before you donate it? We got you.
