Samsung has proudly announced the company will replace plastic packaging materials with environmentally sustainable alternatives such as recycled/bio-based plastics and paper. Holder trays for mobile phones and tablets will now comprise pulp molds; even the glossy exterior of chargers will be made matte to reduce the use of plastics. “By 2030, Samsung aims to use 500 thousand tons of recycled plastics and collect 7.5 million tons of discarded products”
“Samsung Electronics is stepping up in addressing society’s environmental issues such as resource depletion and plastic wastes,” said Gyeong-bin Jeon, head of Samsung’s Global Customer Satisfaction Center. “We are committed to recycling resources and minimizing pollution coming from our products. We will adopt more environmentally sustainable materials even if it means an increase in cost.”
