Samsung disclosed this in Lagos, when it unveiled Galaxy Z Flip5, Galaxy Z Fold5 devices in Nigeria.
The firm said by reaching net zero direct and indirect carbon emissions, it expects to reduce the equivalent of about 17 million tons of carbon dioxide-equivalent (CO2e) emissions based on 2021 figures.
To propel these efforts, Samsung Electronics will invest heavily in innovative technologies for treatment facilities that reduce carbon emissions.

The firm said the form factors offer unique experiences for every user with sleek and compact designs, countless customisation options, and powerful performance.

These remarkable foldable devices unlock extraordinary camera capabilities such as FlexCam to take photos from creative angles. With strong performance and an optimised battery powered by the latest processor, the Samsung Galaxy Z series transforms what is possible with a smartphone – open or closed.
President and Head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics, TM Roh, said: “Samsung is revolutionising the mobile industry with foldables by setting the standard and continually refining the experience.
“Every day, more people choose our foldables because they offer an experience people want that they can’t get on any other device. Galaxy Z Flip5 and Galaxy Z Fold5 are the latest devices that prove our commitment to meeting the needs of our customers through innovative technology.”
