Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Fold 5 – Minimal impact on environment

The Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Galaxy Z Fold 5 represent yet another step in Samsung’s commitment to design technology that breaks barriers while aiming to minimize the impact on the environment.

In early 2023, the company expanded its innovative use of recycled materials in product design with the Galaxy S23 series. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Z Fold 5 advance these efforts, featuring a wider variety of recycled materials.

The newest foldable smartphones incorporate pre-consumer recycled aluminum and post-consumer recycled plastic sourced from discarded fishing nets, water barrels and PET bottles.

The South Korean tech giant has more than doubled the amount of device components that use a minimum of 10% post-consumer recycled plastic or pre-consumer recycled glass, or an average of 22% pre-consumer recycled glass.

Both the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Galaxy Z Fold 5 use recycled materials in 15 device components, an increase from six internal components in predecessors. When it comes to packaging, Samsung continues to advance its efforts to reduce the presence of single-use plastic.

That’s why the paper for the packaging box is made using 100% recycled material. The company also switched to recycled paper material for the front and back cover protector.
