Toilet Paper, Keith Haring, K-pop Artists, and More IP Applications

Samsung Electronics announced on the 17th that it will introduce new 'Samsung Eco Friends' accessories embodying eco-friendly values in over 40 countries.


Samsung Eco Friends, first launched last year, includes accessories such as phone cases and wearable straps made with materials like recycled plastics containing more than 40% post-consumer material (PCM) and vegan leather, pursuing Samsung Electronics' eco-friendly vision of a "sustainable daily life."


Planned by Samsung Electronics' Future Generation Lab, composed of global employees in their 20s, the line reflects the values and preferences of the younger generation. It also contributes to win-win cooperation by helping partners expand their sales channels through the Samsung Mobile Accessory Partnership Program (SMAPP).
