Samsung Eco Troca program encourages sustainable initiatives and helps preserve the environment

Exchanging an old electronic device or appliance for a new one is not only advantageous for users, who can improve their experience with more modern resources, but also for the planet. Through the correct disposal of TVs, refrigerators, washing and drying machines, air conditioning, dishwashers and monitors through the Eco Troca program1 from Samsung, in addition to winning a discount coupon for the purchase of a new product, you can also help preserve the environment by disposing of electronic waste for other purposes in a safe and sustainable way. Check out some reasons why correct disposal is so important:

Prevents the accumulation of garbage and contamination

According to United Nations data, around 2.5 million tons of electronic waste are produced per year in Brazil.2. When improperly discarded, electronics contribute to the accumulation of waste in already overcrowded landfills, which prevents the recycling and reuse of various components, in addition to the release of possible toxic substances that can contaminate the soil, water and air.

Helps in the recycling of metals and other materials

Refrigerators, TVs, among other old products, can be very useful to industry even if they no longer work. Parts that make up the product can be reused in the manufacture of other parts and components, which use metals and plastics, among other materials, in their manufacture. Recycling, therefore, makes it possible to keep inputs in constant use by reinserting components into the production chain.

Protects user data

In the incorrect disposal of certain types of equipment, such as Smart TVs, there is a real chance of compromising the security of user data (such as access to applications and passwords saved in the operating system), since there is no way of knowing its final destination. Reverse logistics programs such as Samsung Eco Troca follow established standards to exclude any risk of data compromise for safe disposal.

Gives a discount when buying a new product

The Samsung Eco Troca program, created to encourage the correct and sustainable disposal of home appliances and electronics of any brand in any condition, has been active since the beginning of February 2023 for Brazilians.
