3 ways we're reducing e-waste

We’re on a mission to put the planet first when designing our products. So now when you choose a Samsung device or appliance, you’re supporting our efforts to cut e-waste and promoting the use of recycled materials. Check out some of the meaningful ways we’re making changes to our products, manufacturing and services so we can all live more sustainably.

We’re offering easier ways to recycle

Our goal is to make recycling as convenient as product purchases. The Samsung RE+ program is among the largest e-waste recycling programs in the tech sector. We have over 1,700 drop off locations in the U.S. And as an e-Stewards Enterprise Partner, we follow the highest standards for responsible recycling.
