The initiative supports responsible end-of-life handling of electronic and electrical equipment. It also reinforces both companies\u2019 commitment to sustainable network evolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2024, the collaboration has enabled the recycling of more than 130 metric tons of decommissioned equipment. As a result, landfill waste has been reduced. In addition, the program supports resource recovery and promotes circular economy practices through structured collection and certified recycling processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, the initiative aligns with both companies\u2019 climate action and environmental sustainability strategies. By improving lifecycle management of network equipment, they are enhancing value recovery. At the same time, they are minimizing the environmental footprint of network modernization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, Umniah continues to strengthen its position in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The company is accelerating its transformation following its rebrand to Umniah by Beyon. Sustainability remains a core element of its network modernization strategy. The responsible retirement and recycling of legacy infrastructure play a key role in building a future-ready network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Notably, Ericsson launched its global e-Waste Program in 2005. The program aims to reduce environmental impact and ensure proper end-of-life handling. Today, it is offered to customers in 180 countries worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yusuf Sater, Chief Technology Officer at Umniah by Beyon, said that network leadership requires continuous evolution. He noted that while improving capacity, speed, and reliability across Jordan\u2019s Best Mobile Network, the company is also focusing on responsible infrastructure retirement. He added that the partnership ensures modernization delivers both technical excellence and environmental responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kevin Murphy, President of Ericsson North Middle East, stated that the Ericsson e-Waste Program supports responsible handling of electronic equipment. He added that working with Umniah enables circular economy practices through take-back, recycling, and final disposal processes, in line with sustainability goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through this partnership, both companies aim to place environmental responsibility at the center of operations. They also seek to raise awareness of best practices in e-waste disposal and recycling. Going forward, the collaboration will continue to advance sustainability initiatives led by Ericsson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ericsson has expanded its collaboration with Umniah by Beyon under [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":58,"featured_media":105264,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10310],"tags":[1051],"contributor":[9732],"class_list":["post-105262","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-green-tech","tag-vendors","contributor-news-desk"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Ericsson-Umniah.jpg.jpeg","author_info":{"display_name":"Lubna","author_link":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/author\/lubna\/"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105262","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/58"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=105262"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105262\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":105263,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/105262\/revisions\/105263"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/105264"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=105262"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=105262"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=105262"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=105262"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
