Fishing nets are one of the most common types of plastic left in the ocean. Samsung used them for the first time in the series Galaxy S22 and later incorporated them into his other ecosystems Galaxy. This includes tablets Galaxy, laptops Galaxy Book, and even headphones Galaxy.
By working with like-minded companies, the Korean giant has been able to create a new material from discarded fishing nets and still maintain its high quality standards. The innovation is part of the sustainability vision of Samsung's mobile division "Galaxy for the Planet," which outlines the company's vision for climate action across global business operations and product lifecycles, and which highlights how Samsung will use recycled materials in all of its new products.
