We are on the move
to make small but
huge changes.

And those changes
have begun to take effect.

Holding a sprout that grows in the soil with hands.

Samsung Semiconductor has worked hard to make an impact on our employees, clients, and local communities.
We have put a lot of work into becoming a sustainable company that contributes to the development of humanity.

In this sense, we have joined the global trend of carbon neutrality.
We have been running our own campaign called 'Eco-Office' as well, which is our first step towards reducing the usage of plastics and increasing the amount of plastic waste that is recycled. We aim to encourage employees to separate their office disposals.

In order to take part in this campaign,
11,385 employees of Samsung Semiconductor have pledged to recycle their used resources. We have made a promise to ourselves to recycle and separate waste. This shows our will to make changes by putting our pledges into action.

Samsung Semiconductor has been running a campaign called, 'Eco-Office' since this year.
It aims to reduce carbon emissions starting from within our office where we spend most of our days.

We have made the office environment efficient for disposing of waste in 6 to 10 categories.
We also provide our employees with reusable bags and individual dishes as well.
This is to encourage them to reduce the usage of single use items.
We also hold live quiz shows and publish online cartoons and educational videos to help our employees obtain correct information about recycling and separating waste.
One of our environment managers made
a song called <Love Recycling Song>
to promote the campaign, which made our employees become more enthusiastic about separating used disposals.

Once our employees separate used
plastic bottles, they are moved to
flake/chip manufacturers.

2

The plastic bottles are shredded into
pieces and get cleaned. They transform
into plastic flakes afterward.

3

The plastic flakes are melted at high temperatures. After they are cooled down, they are made into smaller chips. These chips are used as materials for threads.

4

These threads are used for making fabrics. We use these fabrics to make eco-friendly blanket covers.

11,385 employees of Samsung Semiconductor have pledged to take part in this campaign.
Their efforts to separate used plastic bottles have led to the making of 1,000 blankets with recycled fabrics, which were donated to our neighbors in need.

In order to recycle the plastic bottles, we emptied, rinsed, detached labels and separated them. The clean bottles were used for making cozy blankets for our neighbors with the cooperation of a plastic recycling company and a blanket manufacturer.
These blankets will help those in need survive the cold winter.

On December 13th, the blankets were delivered to 10 welfare organizations in Yongin, Pyeongtaek, Osan, Anseong, Asan, and Hwaseong areas near Samsung’s semiconductor business sites. We hope that the warm hearts of Samsung Semiconductor executives and employees are also conveyed along with the warm winter blankets.

For a better future for
our Earth,
neighbors, and every one
of us.

All of us at Samsung
Semiconductor
has begun making changes.
We make efforts to recycle
our resources.
