With the advance of industrial technology, we are benefiting from an increasingly prosperous civilisation. However, we must recognise that every choice entails considerations and consequences. Experts warn of environmental problems as a result of this advancement, which occur during the extraction of resources and the future risks of scarcity, raising issues such as global warming and the disposal of hazardous waste. 

These environmental issues are increasingly being highlighted and digital signage is no exception. There is a growth in favour of ecological products and now ecologically conscious solutions are another important criterion in the purchasing decision.

Aware of this ongoing problem, Samsung has prepared and implemented a variety of countermeasures. In particular, due to the extensive use and lifespan of Samsung Smart Signage products, various factors have been considered and each process from initial production to disposal after use has been evaluated. Products are being developed that use recycled materials to minimise the waste of resources, have certified energy efficiency levels and respect industry standards for handling hazardous substances.

In addition, Samsung works to meet the requirements of ecological awareness, strengthening the entire range of processes, from manufacturing, packaging, use and disposal. Its efforts in relation to the environment have been officially verified through the acquisition of recognised international certifications, such as passing the environmental certificate for electronic products and obtaining a carbon dioxide reduction certification.

Conservation of resources

"Optimising resource consumption by using recycled materials"
Thanks to efforts towards resource-efficient circularity, Samsung is looking for ways to use resources efficiently through technological innovation in the manufacture and unboxing of products. Whether using recycled materials or reusing inevitably generated waste or end-of-life products, no effort is spared to find ways to reuse resources while making better products.

Energy Efficiency
"Reducing energy consumption with advanced technology"
Samsung has achieved high energy efficiency by reducing energy consumption for a greener product operation. This innovation in energy-efficient product design is just one of the ways in which it addresses climate change and Samsung's advanced technology has been recognised by the certified energy label, validating its environmentally conscious efforts to ensure longer product lifecycles.




Non-hazardous substances

"No use of environmentally toxic materials"
Samsung complies with global guidelines and laws through its environmental efforts, including RoHS, REACH and WEEE for hazardous substances. There are several mandatory guidelines that must be met and, if possible, exceeded by using safe and environmentally friendly substances in all Samsung Smart Signage products and technologies.

Sustainable innovation throughout the product life cycle

Each eco-friendly endeavour identified above is applied throughout the entire life cycle of Samsung's Smart Signage range. Through this process, each product's energy efficiency, resource efficiency, environmental risks, environmental policy and CO2 emissions are evaluated. These efforts are applied at every stage of a product: manufacturing, packaging, unboxing, use and disposal. There is an effort to bring environmentally friendly products and green technologies to the market. It is evident that they feature a selection of eco-efficient technologies and resources in their wide range of products.

Samsung will continue to build a better tomorrow

Samsung takes great strides to ensure that its Smart Signage products are more environmentally conscious, continually innovating to create efficiencies wherever possible. There is a commitment to the conservation of resources through the recycling of materials, greater energy efficiency to reduce CO2 emissions, as well as the use of materials that are harmless to the human body and the environment. Efforts throughout the product life cycle will be very significant for the goal of improving sustainability. In the future, Samsung will constantly endeavour to develop innovative technology that will further reduce energy use and help make positive changes for a better, more sustainable planet.
