The Samsung Galaxy S25 has been awarded the 2025 Design for Recycling® Award by the Recycled Materials Association (ReMA), solidifying its place as a leader in sustainable smartphone innovation. As an authorized reseller of Samsung in the UAE, MDS Mobile is proud to bring customers a device that not only delivers high performance but also champions environmental responsibility.
Galaxy S25: Setting New Standards in Eco-Friendly Innovation
Samsung Electronics' latest flagship, the Galaxy S25, is the first Galaxy smartphone to incorporate recycled cobalt, a vital component in battery production. This initiative is part of Samsung’s new Circular Battery Supply Chain, which recovers cobalt from used devices and manufacturing waste — reducing the need for newly-mined materials and lowering the environmental footprint.
According to Daniel Araujo, VP and Head of the Sustainability Management Office at Samsung MX Business, “The Galaxy S25 marks a major step forward in our efforts to make sustainability a core part of the product lifecycle — from design to disposal.”
Design for Recycling: Recognized Leadership
The ReMA Award is the highest honor for sustainable product design, recognizing brands that lead the way in recycling innovation. Robin Wiener, President of ReMA, praised Samsung’s leadership, stating, “Samsung’s design choices in the Galaxy S25 are a benchmark for the industry, showing that tech innovation and environmental care can go hand in hand.”
