Samsung has always been an active member in taking up environmental initiatives. The initiative taken up by Samsung, ‘Go Paper free’ has resulted in enormous good responses all over the world. This initiative started with Samsung services center employees going for paperless processes and following an economically friendly alternative for papers. The media field and environmentalists tremendously encouraged Samsung to bring up its marketing strategy for the use of environmental initiatives.
Following the reports of the past two years, it is found that the launch of this initiative has saved 33 billion sheets of paper, and 17 million papers have been saved in the past 12 months. India was the first country to take up this initiative. More than 11000 service centers across 180 countries adopted the paper-free system following responses in India.
This project was kick-started in July 2021 across the country and has given a sustainable solution to the customers. Apart from the savings in paper usage, this has also benefited customers in faster transactions in the service centers and contactless communication between the consumers and executives.
