Nowadays, the rapid development of all walks of life at the same time, but also caused great harm to the natural environment, which makes the living environment of human beings worse and worse, in recent years, natural disasters have become more and more serious, so that environmental protection issues have become urgent. As a major technology company, Samsung actively shoulders its corporate social responsibility, adheres to the concept of sustainable development, and makes continuous efforts to protect the natural environment.
When it comes to green development, Samsung integrates sustainability into the entire product life cycle to provide consumers with high-quality, low-energy products, and practices daily sustainability with consumers, which is also an excellent strategy to promote environmental protection. In Samsung's new environmental protection strategy, low-power technology will be implemented in seven major consumer electronics products such as TVs and mobile phones, and it is expected that by 2030, Samsung will achieve the goal of reducing the average power consumption of products of the same specifications by 30% compared with 2019, contributing to the development of environmental protection and public welfare.
The Samsung brand is super attentive in product packaging, through the use of strong and sturdy corrugated cardboard to make packaging, but also reduce the text and image content of the outer packaging, reduce the use of non-environmentally friendly materials such as ink, and further achieve a circular economy. It is estimated that by 2030, the plastic parts of Samsung's products will contain 50% resin, and by 2050, this proportion will increase to 100%. It can be seen that throughout the product life cycle, Samsung will further upgrade the recyclability of resources, realize the best reuse, and support the development of environmental protection.
Samsung adheres to environmental sustainability goals in the manufacturing process and components used in its electronic products, and uses many first-class materials in mobile phone products in addition to TV products. Since the launch of the Galaxy for the Planet sustainability program, Samsung has continued to incorporate sustainability into its products through initiatives such as reducing packaging and rejecting single-use items, bringing the number of flagship smartphones in the Samsung Galaxy S23 series to 12 components made from the best materials both inside and out. In addition to this, the Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 23 used in the Samsung Galaxy S23 series contains an average of 22% pre-consumer recycled material, further upgrading the durability of the phone. From the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series to the end of 2023, the ocean plastic used by Samsung in this series of products has reduced 15 tons of discarded fishing nets, providing a lot of help for marine environmental protection issues.
After the above many measures of Samsung enterprises in environmental protection, it can be seen that Samsung attaches great importance to the protection of the natural environment, and has always actively adhered to the concept of sustainable development.
