4 ways we’ll reach our sustainability goals:
Eliminate single-use plastic in mobile product
packaging by 2025
We’re parting ways with plastic by investing in sustainably grown paper and plant-based materials, including using recycled paper and bioplastics in packaging.
Save plastic. Save the planet.
Since 2009, Samsung has reused over 276,972 metric tons of recycled plastic globally in products and is on track to use 500,000 tons
of recycled plastic in products by 2030.
Packaging that protects the planet
Our refrigerators, washers and dryers are packaged in a newly developed plant-based material that can be reused up to 40 times.
Use recycled material in all mobile products by 2025
By collecting products at the end of their useful life, we can recover, reuse and reprocess valuable materials, leaving more ore and oil in the ground.
Strive for zero power standby consumption in mobile devices by 2025
We’ve reduced our phone chargers’ standby power consumption to among the lowest
in the industry at 86% efficiency with standby power use of less than 0.02W. We’ll
lower standby power use to less than 0.005W by 2025, on our way to zero
Zero mobile manufacturing waste to landfill by 2025
Since March 2009, Samsung has recycled nearly 4.5 million tons of electronics, diverting them from landfills. And we currently recycle 95% of all our manufacturing waste instead of sending it to landfills.
We have powerful partners—including you
Together, we can build a sustainable future by joining forces with the biggest companies taking bold climate action. It starts with you and Samsung working together.
“Together, we can design a future we’ll be proud to pass on to our children.”
-Mark Newton, Head of Corporate Sustainability, Samsung Electronics America
ENERGY STAR: a badge of honor
No one comes close to delivering a full range of sustainable home appliances at every price than Samsung. We’re proud that 100% of our tablets, notebooks and dishwashers are ENERGY STAR-certified along with 81% of our refrigerators and more.
