SINGAPORE, 2 DECEMBER 2022 – M1 Limited (M1), one of Singapore’s leading Mobile Network Operators , today announced an Eco-friendly Christmas Carnival to mark the end of the year.

From 3 Dec to 9 Dec, M1 customers can visit M1’s flagship store at Peranakan Place to participate in M1’s Trade-Up Bazaar. To reduce e-waste disposal, M1 is encouraging customers to trade in their old devices in store, with attractive prices for their old devices. These old devices will be repurposed for new devices or sent to recycling partners to save more precious materials and support sustainable practices. Customers with any eligible trade-in device can participate in this program. More details on the Trade-Up can be found m1.com.sg/tradeup.

To further reduce waste during the gifting season, customers are welcome to visit the store to claim their complimentary plantable Christmas gift card and eco-friendly wrapping paper. This plantable gift card is made up of biodegradable eco-paper embedded with seeds. When the card is planted in a pot of soil, the paper composts away, giving new life to plants with zero waste.

“Integrating responsible practices into our operations is important as we grow our customer base, expand our network and transform our products and services. In line with Keppel’s Vision 2030 to sharpen focus on providing solutions for sustainable urbanisation, we are always looking for new ways to make a positive impact on our community and minimise our environmental footprint. Through our Christmas Carnival, we also hope to engage our customers and educate them on sustainable practices in a fun way as the year comes to a close,” said Mr Manjot Singh Mann, Chief Executive Officer, M1.

Beyond this, M1 customers can look forward to family-friendly activities such as Pet Pebble painting. Customers who sign up or recontract their M1 mobile plans at any M1 Shop or via the e-store from now until 31 December will receive a complimentary Pet Pebble kit while stocks last. Customers can decorate and customise their Pet Pebble with a variety of art materials in store or in their own time and share their creation on Instagram to stand a chance to win attractive prizes. More details of the competition can be found https://www.petpebble.sg/.

Members of the public can also “adopt” a Pet Pebble painted by the children and volunteers from Beyond Social Services (BSS). Donations can be made directly to BSS via a QR code and all proceeds from Pet Pebble adoption will go towards them.
