As a commitment to the environment, Samsung has partnered with Dutch Textile firm Kvadrat to manufacture cases for the Galaxy S20+ and Galaxy Watch Active2. This is an excellent initiative aimed at reducing pollution and further damage to the environment. Kvadrat helps in the cause by using thrown plastic bottles (PET) and produce yarn from them, using which cases and covers for Galaxy devices are woven.
As per Kvadrat, a single 500ml bottle has enough material for two galaxy S20+ cases. The method of manufacturing is eco-friendly and results in less CO2 emissions than other methods. This has earned them EU’s Ecolabel Certification. The infographics of the process is shown below.
