Samsung and Patagonia worked together to design a washing machine cycle and filter that drastically reduce the release of microplastics during laundry while maintaining high cleaning performance. Patagonia, a brand known for its commitment to the environment and to sustainability, assisted Samsung in product testing and research, while the Korean manufacturer provided the technical expertise. The partnership aims to combat ocean pollution by preventing microplastics from entering the water stream during laundry. The end result of the collaboration is the Less Microfiber Cycle and a new filter installed in a new range of appliances. The combined use of the special cycle and filter, according to Samsung, reduces the release of microplastics by 54% and blocks them from escaping into the water outlet.
The Less Microfiber Cycle can be installed as an update on compatible washing machines in Korea and the U.S. later this year. The Less Microfiber Filter will be available in select Samsung washing machines in Europe in the second half of 2023. The good news here is that users of other washing machine brands will also be able to purchase the filter separately and install it on their washers.

The Infinite design reinforces this modularity while maintaining the elegance of the refrigerator, whatever the user’s expectations. The exterior of the refrigerator is made of high quality aluminum, for increased resistance to shocks and scratches while allowing easy wiping of marks on its surface. The interior, bright and neat, has the Black Metal Cooling finish and Tunnel Lightning lighting , thus combining aesthetics and practicality.

The Tunnel Lightning lighting on the frame and shelves enhances the appliance while allowing you to clearly see every corner of the refrigerator.
The fridge and freezer offer a combined capacity of 805 liters , while the wine cellar can store up to 101 bottles.
Many features The new Auto Open Door has a side sensor that instantly opens the door with just a touch .

The temperature-controlled Flex Pantry drawer allows for quick switching from one pre-set temperature to another according to users’ daily needs. The two preset temperature modes are ideal for preserving a wide range of foods (meat, fish, fruit and vegetables), preserving their natural flavors and textures for longer.
The multifunction wine cellar provides the same level of freshness suitable for storing wine. Equipped with three distinct zones and precise temperature controls, it offers the possibility of simultaneously storing different bottles in ideal conditions. A line that pushes connectivity to the limit Connected, this line is childishly easy to use, from storing wine to monitoring electricity consumption. The SmartThings Sommelier at Home feature simplifies wine storage by analyzing bottle labels and providing information on the best storage conditions. Combined with SmartThings Cooking , it offers the ideal food and wine pairing, just like a real sommelier . Additionally, with SmartThings Energy , users can track their refrigerator’s power consumption in real time and receive tips on how to limit their carbon footprint and save money. The AI Energy mode allows you to go even further by analyzing usage patterns and other factors to optimize the various parameters of the refrigerator and thus achieve energy savings.

South Korea’s Samsung Electronics Co. and LG Electronics Inc. are set to showcase their high-end home appliances at the CES 2023, the world’s largest electronics exhibition to be held from Jan. 5 to Jan. 8 of the next year in Las Vegas.
Samsung Electronics will demonstrate products of Bespoke Infinite Line, a premium lineup of Bespoke, the tech giant’s kitchen appliance brand with customizable design. The company launched the premium lineup in Korea in February of this year.
Bespoke Infinite features durability and high-quality metal that makes a luxurious texture to the surface of the products. The lineup includes one-door refrigerators to store kimchi, wine and other food, four-door refrigerators of extra-large capacity, ovens, inductions, smart range hoods and dishwashers.
The tech giant will launch the premium lineup in the European market, including France, Germany and the UK, during the first quarter of 2023 and will also enter North America and Southeast Asia within the next year.
LG Electronics will emphasize minimalist aesthetics in its home appliances to be launched next year. The company will exhibit refrigerators, washing machines, clothes dryers, ranges and dishwashers with simple designs at the electronics show.During the next edition of CES (Las Vegas, January 5-8), LG will present the new InstaView™ French-Door refrigerator. The company’s new, 25.5-cubic feet counter-depth refrigerator offers a generous capacity, despite a nine percent reduction in depth compared to a conventional French-Door model. To increase internal storage space, LG redesigned several of the fridge’s core components – slimming-down the cold air duct and the evaporator, while also reducing thickness by applying enhanced insulation. Although its expansive interior provides 25 percent more room for storing food and drinks than LG’s previous counter-depth models, the new French-Door can still help to save space in the kitchen thanks to its smaller footprint. LG’s new InstaView French-Door refrigerator – said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company – makes a superb, stylish addition to any modern kitchen, offering consumers the ultimate in convenience, design and food freshness. We will continue to deliver outstanding customer value and experiences with innovative home solutions leveraging elegant, functional design and our advanced technologies.
The new model is bordered in sleek stainless steel, while the mirror-coated glass of the seamless InstaView panel covers almost the entire right-hand door of the refrigerator. Just by knocking twice on the panel, users can check inside without having to open the door. The subtle, minimalist beauty and clean, modern lines of LG’s latest InstaView are further enhanced by the discrete pocket handles applied to the fridge’s ‘flat’ doors.

Samsung and Patagonia met to begin discussions on developing a solution to reduce microplastics that are shed from clothes when washed. Microplastics have a major impact on the environment, threatening not only the marine ecosystem but the health of the humans as well.
Since Samsung’s Digital Appliances division was already conducting its own research to reduce microplastics, we were able to form a mutual understanding and agreed to work together quickly – said Chiwoong Yoon, who worked on ESG Strategy and acted as manager throughout the collaborative project -. The support from Patagonia heavily motivated us and gave us the confidence to accelerate the development of a practical solution and commercialize it.»
In order to accurately and objectively verify that microplastics were being reduced, the companies needed help from a research institute in the field. Patagonia introduced the nonprofit marine conservation research organization Ocean Wise Plastics Lab to Samsung.
A year after the development began, Samsung finally succeeded in developing a laundry cycle that is specifically designed to reduce microplastic shedding by up to 54 percent. This technology both effectively washes clothes and reduces the release of microplastics, all while maintaining the quality of clothes
For three years, Samsung was able to increase consistently in the third quarter; however, that growth has suddenly abruptly stopped. While the company’s revenue only managed to expand by less than 3% over the same time the previous year, this stop results in an operating profit decline of approximately 32%
The South Korean company anticipates its operating profit to be about KRW 10.8 trillion (roughly $) and it’s aggregated sales to be around KRW 76 trillion (roughly $). The company’s operating profit has decreased by 31.7% year over year even though its sales have climbed by 2.73%. In the last three years, this is the first earnings drop for the corporation.
