[Asia Economy Reporter Park Sun-mi] Samsung Electronics' product environment research institute, 'Eco Life Lab,' has been certified as the first designated testing laboratory with virus verification expertise among domestic electronics companies.


On the 28th, Samsung Electronics announced that it held a virus testing laboratory certification ceremony at Samsung Digital City in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, attended by Kim Hyung-nam, Vice President and Head of Samsung Electronics Global CS Center, and Kim Jeong-han, Sales Director of the German TUV Rheinland Korea branch, a global testing and certification organization. This certification is the result of acquiring ISO 21702, an international standard established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), recognizing expertise and external credibility in evaluating antiviral performance on plastics and other materials.


Through continuous strengthening of microbial pre-verification, including the designation of this virus testing laboratory, Samsung Electronics will provide consumers with products that have enhanced emotional quality levels related to health and hygiene. Additionally, by operating an international standard microbial testing laboratory in-house, the company can thoroughly verify microbial-related risks from the development stage and reduce verification time.



Kim Hyung-nam, Vice President and Head of Samsung Electronics Global CS Center, stated, "As the importance and interest in the environment and health continue to grow, we will keep striving to improve emotional quality related to health and hygiene based on expertise and credibility in three microbial fields."
