Data Display. Last year, Samsung produced Carbon Trust-certified memory chips that reduced carbon dioxide emissions by nearly 700,000 metric tons, extending its reach into the use of recycled materials. The Samsung Imaging Display Division plans to increase the use of recycled plastics by 30 times by 2021. Samsung also revealed that it will further expand the use of recycled materials in the next three years, including all mobile products and home appliances.
It is reported that in 2021, all TV cartons under Samsung will be made of recycled materials. This year, Samsung said it would expand the application of recycled materials to cover the inner packaging of cartons. Samsung also announced plans to transform cartons into environmentally friendly packaging for cat houses, side tables, and other household practical items, which will be included in-home appliance packaging in the future, such as vacuum cleaners, microwave ovens, air purifiers, etc.
In addition, Samsung plans to reduce the standby power of all TV and mobile phone chargers to near zero by 2025, so that when the products are not in use, they can achieve near-zero power consumption.
E-waste is another serious challenge facing the electronics industry. Therefore, Samsung has been actively recycling e-waste since 2009 and has collected more than 5 million metric tons so far.
In addition, Samsung Electronics also said today that its fourth-quarter operating profit may surge by 52% year-on-year to 13.8 trillion won (about 11.5 billion US dollars), benefiting from the solid demand for server memory chips and the improvement of chip foundry profit margins. The highest for the same period in four years. In a brief earnings report, Samsung estimated that fourth-quarter revenue could rise 23 percent from a year earlier to 76 trillion won ($63.1 billion). In addition, Samsung will release detailed earnings on January 27.
