Welcome to Samsung Care Forest

At Samsung, we are committed to innovating and designing energy-efficient products while minimizing our environmental impact.

By incorporating sustainability into our day-to-day business and operations and advancing toward a circular economy, we can not only alter Samsung’s environmental impact, but also help consumers to reduce their impact.

* In 2018, Samsung Electronics announced plans to source renewable energy for 100% of the energy used for all of its factories, office buildings, and operational facilities in the United States, Europe and China by 2020.

* Samsung is recognized for innovative energy-efficient products. Samsung received the 2019 ENERGY STAR® Partner of the Year – Sustained Excellence Award from the U.S. EPA for continued leadership and superior contributions to the ENERGY STAR program. This is the 11th Partner of the Year award presented to Samsung and the 6th recognition for Sustained Excellence. ENERGY STAR products, as defined by the U.S. EPA, are the same or better than standard products, but use less energy.

* Since 2009, Samsung product efficiency improvements have helped our customers avoid an estimated 243 million tons of CO2 emissions through the use of our products.

Samsung is committed to reducing its impact on the Environment through Recycling

* Samsung collects and recycles approximately 100 million pounds of e-waste per year in the U.S.

* In 2019, we achieved our target to collect more than one billion pounds of electronics in the U.S. in total since 2008.

Our circular economy goals focus on

* E-Waste: Globally, through 2018, we collected approximately six billion pounds of electronics and recycled the material. We are now on track to collect and recycle approximately eight billion pounds of electronics globally by 2020, and we are aiming to collect and recycle 15 billion pounds of electronics globally by 2030.

* Recycled Plastics: Since 2009, we’ve used over 220,000 tons of recycled plastics globally in our products, have taken steps to eliminate single-use plastics, and are on track to expand the accumulated amount of recycled plastics put back into our products to 500,000 tons by 2030.

* Packaging: Samsung has set a goal to help ensure that 100% of the paper used in our packaging conforms to international standards by requiring paper suppliers to submit certifications such as the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification for paper products by the end of 2020.

Next steps

Samsung supports continued government funding for ENERGY STAR, a program that uses voluntary market-based mechanisms to identify innovative, efficient products. The ENERGY STAR program is important to both inform consumers and recognize manufacturers for achieving greater efficiency in their products.
