Saerom Waste Research Center is a complex educational space established by Jung-gu Office in October 2021 to address waste issues. It approaches the problem from the perspective of resource circulation and conducts education and upcycling experiences to solve various waste problems.

Shinsegae Duty Free said it decided to sponsor Saerom because it sympathizes with the educational purpose and efforts to solve environmental issues in the local community. The donation will be used to support education and improve learning facilities such as desks and chairs.

Meanwhile, Shinsegae Duty Free is conducting its own eco-friendly activities. In March, it introduced shopping bags made from 100% recycled kraft paper and soy ink. It continues efforts in resource circulation by recycling damaged paper boxes into logistics packaging materials.

A Shinsegae Duty Free official said, "We hope this sponsorship will contribute, even in a small way, to raising public awareness of environmental conservation and the development of the local community," adding, "We will continue to pay attention to the environment and make efforts toward resource circulation."
