The Greenest Phone: The Samsung F268 mobile phone is loved of Greenpeace
Seoul, Korea, January 12, 2009 - Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced that its F268 handset has been named as the Greenest Mobile Phone by leading environmental campaigning organization, Greenpeace International. The F268 saw off competition in the form of the Motorola V9, theNokia 3110 Evolve, the Sony Ericsson C905 and the LG KT520 in the handset category.

 

The win was unveiled by Greenpeace‘s Green Electronics: The Search Continues report, which commends the Samsung F268 as the "greenest mobile phone on the market today." The report recognizes the efforts Samsung has made to develop more renewable and eco-friendly materials and describes the accoladeas a "remarkable achievement."

The Samsung F268 is the brominated flame retardant (BFR) and polyvinylchloride (PVC) free mobile phone. Neither the device nor its accessories (including the charger and headset) contain PVC, and the all components are also entirely free from BFRs.

In addition, the Samsung F268 has an alarm function that tells users to unplug their charger when the device is fully charged. The product also fully complies with the Energy Star requirements - a set of strict energy-efficiency guidelines established by the US Environmental Protection Agency and the US Department of Energy.

“At Samsung Electronics we take our responsibility to the environment very seriously and are committed to continually improving the environmental and social impact of our business,” said Geesung Choi, President of Samsung’s Telecommunication Business. “We are delighted to have got this result and aim to build on this success as we strive to make more products as green as possible and to proactively set up and expand a phone recycling system.”
