HISTORY
Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., is the chief subsidiary of South Korea's giant Samsung Group and one of the largest electronics producers in Asia. Products built by Samsung Electronics include televisions and many other kinds of home appliances, telecommunications equipment, and computers. Its most important product is semiconductors. Savvy management and heavy investment in research and development in the late 1980s and early 1990s were turning the company into a leading contender in the global electronics industry.

Samsung Electronics was created in 1969 as a division of the mammoth Korean chaebol Samsung Group. The unit was established as a means of getting Samsung into the burgeoning television and consumer electronics industry. The division's first product was a small and simple black-andwhite television that it began selling in the early 1970s. From that product, Samsung Electronics gradually developed a diverse line of consumer electronics that it first sold domestically, and later began exporting. The company also began branching out into color televisions, and later into a variety of consumer electronics and appliances. By the 1980s Samsung was manufacturing, shipping, and selling a wide range of appliances and electronic products throughout the world.

Although the rapid growth of Samsung Electronics during the 1970s and early 1980s is impressive, it did not surprise observers who were familiar with the Samsung Group, which was founded in 1938 by Byung-Chull Lee, a celebrated Korean entrepreneur. Lee started a small trading company with a $2,000 nest egg and forty
PUNAM YADAV BBA 4th 20011-012

employees. He called it Samsung, which means "three stars" in Korean. The company enjoyed moderate growth before the Communist invasion in 1950 forced Lee to abandon his operations in Seoul. Looting soldiers and politicians on both sides of the conflict diminished his inventories to almost nothing. With savings contributed by one of his managers, Lee started over in 1951 and within one year had grown his company's assets twenty-fold.

Lee established a sugar refinery in 1953, a move that was criticized at the time because sugar could be easily obtained through American aid. But for Lee the act was important because it was the first manufacturing facility built in South Korea after the Korean War. From sugar, wool, and other commodity businesses, Lee moved into heavier manufacturing. The company prospered under Lee's philosophy of making Samsung the leader in each industry he entered.

From manufacturing, Samsung moved into various service businesses during the 1960s, including insurance, broadcasting, securities, and even a department store. Lee experienced several major setbacks during the period. For example, in the late 1960s, shortly before Samsung Electronics was created, Lee was charged with an illegal sale of about $50,000 worth of goods. The charges turned out to be the fabrication of a disgruntled government official to whom Lee had refused to pay a bribe. Nevertheless, one of Lee's sons was arrested and Lee was forced to donate a fertilizer plant to the government to win his release. Despite that and other problems, Samsung continued to flourish. Indeed, by the end of the 1960s the conglomerate was generating more than US$100 million in annual revenues. Shortly after Lee's son was arrested, Lee decided to break into the mass communication industry by launching a radio and television station, as well as by manufacturing televisions and electronic components through the Samsung Electronics division. The industry was dominated at the time by several U.S. and European manufacturers, and some Japanese companies were beginning to enter the industry. Nevertheless, Lee was confident that Samsung could stake its claim on the
PUNAM YADAV BBA 4th 20011-012

local market and eventually become a global contender. During the early 1970s the company invested heavily, borrowed and coaxed technology from foreign competitors, and drew on its business and political connections to begin carving out a niche in the consumer electronics industry. In addition to televisions, Samsung branched out into other consumer electronics products and appliances. Samsung Electronics's gains during the 1970s were achieved with the assistance of the national government. During the 1950s and 1960s Samsung and other Korean conglomerates struggled as the Rhee Sungman administration increasingly resorted to favoritism and corruption to maintain power. Student revolts in the 1960s finally forced Rhee into exile. The ruling party that emerged from the ensuing political fray was headed by military leader Park Chung-Hee. His regime during the 1960s and 1970s was characterized by increasing centralization of power, both political and industrial, as his government was obsessed with economic growth and development. So, while Park was widely criticized for his authoritarian style, his government is credited with laying the foundation for South Korea's economic renaissance. In order to rapidly develop the economy, Park identified key industries and large, profitable companies within them. The government worked with the companies, providing protection from competition and financial assistance as part of a series of five-year national economic growth plans. By concentrating power in the hands of a few giant companies (the chaebols), Park reasoned, roadblocks would be minimized and efficiencies would result. Between 1960 and 1980 South Korea's annual exports surged from $33 million to more than $17 billion. Samsung Electronics and the entire Samsung chaebol were beneficiaries of Rhee's policies. Several countries, including Japan, were barred from selling consumer electronics in South Korea, eliminating significant competition for Samsung. Furthermore, although Samsung Electronics was free to invest in overseas companies, foreign investors were forbidden to buy into Samsung. As a result, Samsung was able to quickly develop a thriving television and electronics division that controlled niches of the domestic market and even had an edge in some export arenas. During the 1970s and 1980s Samsung Group created a number of electronics-related divisions, several of which were later grouped into a single entity known as Samsung
PUNAM YADAV BBA 4th 20011-012

Electronics Co. Ltd. Samsung Electron Devices Co. manufactured picture tubes, display monitors, and related parts. Samsung Electro-Mechanics Co. made VHF and UHF tuners, condensers, speakers, and other gear. Samsung Corning Co. produced television glass bulbs, computer displays, and other components. Finally, Samsung Semiconductor & Telecommunications Co. represented Samsung in the high-tech microchip industry. Rapid growth in those industries, combined with savvy management, allowed the combined Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., to become Samsung Group's chief subsidiary by the end of the 1980s. Samsung's entry into the semiconductor business was pivotal for the company. Lee had determined in the mid-1970s that high-tech electronics was the growth industry of the future, and that Samsung was to be a major player. To that end, he formed Samsung Semiconductor and Telecommunications Co. in 1978. To make up for a lack of technological expertise in South Korea, the South Korean government effectively required foreign telecommunications equipment manufacturers to hand over advanced semiconductor technology in return for access to the Korean market. This proved crucial for Samsung, which obtained proprietary technology from Micron of the United States and Sharp of Japan in 1983. Utilizing its newly acquired knowledge, Samsung became the first Korean manufacturer of low-cost, relatively low-tech, 64kilobit dynamic random access memory (DRAM) chips. Shortly after introducing its 64K chip, Samsung teamed up with some Korean competitors in a research project that was coordinated by the government Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute. The result was a 1-megabit DRAM (and later a 4-megabit DRAM) chip. During the mid- and late 1980s, Samsung parlayed knowledge from the venture to become a significant supplier of low-cost, commoditylike DRAM chips to computer and electronics manufacturers throughout the world. Meanwhile, its other electronics operations continued to grow, both domestically and abroad. Samsung opened a television assembly plant in Portugal in 1982 to supply the European market with 300,000 units annually. In 1984 it built a $25 million plant in New York that could manufacture one million televisions and 400,000 microwave ovens per year. Then, in 1987, it opened another $25 million facility in England with capacity for 400,000 color televisions, 300,000 VCRs, and 300,000 microwave ovens.

Between 1977 and 1987 Samsung Group's annual revenues surged from $1.3 billion to $24 billion (or about 20 percent of South Korea's entire gross domestic product). Much of that growth was attributable to Samsung Electronics. Byung-Chull Lee died in 1987 and was succeeded by his son, Kun-Hee Lee. Kun-Hee Lee recognized the importance of the electronics division and moved quickly to make it the centerpiece of the Samsung Group. To that end, he consolidated many of the Group's divisions and eliminated some operations. He also introduced various initiatives designed to improve employee motivation and product quality. Kun-Hee Lee was credited with stepping up Samsung Electronics's partnering efforts with foreign companies as part of his goal to put Samsung at the forefront of semiconductor technology. Sales at Samsung Group grew more than 2.5 times between 1987 and 1992. More importantly, Samsung drew from potential profit gains to more than double research and development investments as part of Kun-Hee Lee's aggressive bid to make Samsung a technological leader in the electronics, semiconductor, and communications industries. Besides partnering with U.S. and Japanese electronics companies, Samsung Electronics acquired firms that possessed important technology, including Harris Microwave Semiconductors and Integrated Telecom Technologies. In 1993 Kun-Hee Lee sold off ten of Samsung Group's subsidiaries, downsized the company, and merged other operations to concentrate on three industries: electronics, engineering, and chemicals. Under the leadership of chief executive Kim Kwang-Ho, Samsung Electronics took the microchip world by storm when it introduced its 4-megabit DRAM chip in 1994. Sales of that chip helped to push Samsung's sales from US$10.77 billion in 1993 to US$14.94 billion in 1994. Profits, moreover, spiraled from US$173,000 to nearly US$1.3 billion. In addition, Samsung had staged a bold grab for domestic market share in 1995 by slashing prices for consumer electronics and home appliances by as much as 16 percent, and had wowed industry insiders when it unveiled an advanced thin-film-transistor display screen--used for laptop computers--at a world trade show in Japan. Samsung Electronics's rapid rise and technical achievements put the company in the spotlight in the semiconductor industry. Its 4-megabit chip, in fact, had made it the leading global producer of DRAM chips by early 1995. Furthermore, Samsung
PUNAM YADAV BBA 4th 20011-012

Electronics was increasing its investment in development still further, as evidenced by a $2.5 billion outlay to develop a 64-megabit DRAM chip by 1998. In mid-1995, Samsung Electronics was hoping to generate profits of $2.3 billion on sales of $19.3 billion--a revenue gain of nearly 30 percent over 1994. In addition to its DRAM chip pursuits, the company was working to establish a major presence in multimedia products, flat screens, and telecommunications gear.

Samsung Electronics was founded in 1969 in Daegu, South Korea as Samsung Electric Industries, originally manufacturing electronic appliances such as TVs, calculators, refrigerators, air conditioners and washers. By 1981, the company had manufactured over 10 million black and white TVs. In 1988, it merged with Samsung Semiconductor & Communications. It is noteworthy that Samsung Electronics has grown in leaps and bounds in a business notorious for cyclical fluctuations. Founded in 1938 as a food processing and textile purveyor, the parent group entered the electronic business as late as in 1969 when it created under its wings an electronic component subsidiary. It was a decision made after considering the fast-growing domestic demand for electronic goods. Just one year after its founding, the Samsung Group established in 1970 another subsidiary Samsung-NEC jointly with Japans NEC Corp. to manufacture electric home appliances and audio-visual devices. In 1974, it expanded into the semiconductor business by acquiring Korea Semiconductor, one of the first chipmaking facilities in the country at the time. It was soon followed by the 1980 acquisition of Korea Telecommunications, an electronic switching system producer. In February 1983, Samsungs founder Lee Byung-chull made an epoch-making announcement, dubbed the Tokyo declaration, that his company would enter the DRAM (dynamic random access memory) business. And only one year after the declaration did Samsung became the third company in the world that developed the 64k DRAM after the United States and Japanese predecessors. The march from then onward as the pioneer in the memory chip-making industry has continued to this day for almost three decades. Although Samsung Electronics was already one of the biggest companies in Korea as early as the 1990s, it now is by far the most important company with unrivaled

Influence on the economy through a large network of supplier and partner companies as well as through its own revenue-generating power. Since the onset of the 1997 Asian financial crisis, the company has become more powerful: While most other high-tech companies were hit by cash-flow problems after the crisis, Samsung could avoid financial difficulties by broad-based structural reforms. After the crisis subsided, Samsung emerged as a global corporation. For four consecutive years from 2000 to 2003, it posted more than 5-percent net earnings when 16 large conglomerates out of 30 top companies of the nation went out of business in the wake of the unprecedented crisis. On 2009 and 2010, the US and EU fined Samsung Electronics with 8 other memory chip makers for its part in a price fixing scheme From 1999 to 2002. Other companies fined included Infineon Technologies, Elpida Memory (Hitachi and NECMicron Technology In December 2010, The EU granted immunity to Samsung Electronics for its part in informing on other members of a price fixing scheme.

KNOWLEDGE ABOUT PRODUCTS


Samsung Electronics manufactures products in a number of categories:

Semiconductor: DRAM, SDRAM, flash memory

Semiconductors
PUNAM YADAV BBA 4th 20011-012

For more than 20 years since 1993, Samsung has kept the title of the worlds largest memory chip maker. In 2009, it began a strategy of Green Memory by which it increased the global DRAM market share to 33 percent. It also started mass-producing 30 nm-classes NAND flash memories in the same year whose world share rose as high as 42 percent. It succeeded in 2010 in mass-producing 30 nm-class DRAMs and 20 nm-class NAND flashes, both of which were the first time in the world. According to market research firm Gartner, during the second quarter of 2010 Samsung Electronics took the top position in the DRAM segment due to brisk sales of the item on the world market. Gartner analysts said in their report, Samsung cemented its leading position by taking a 35-percent market share. All the other suppliers had minimal change in their shares. Samsung took the top slot in the ranking, followed by Hynix, Elpida, and Micron, said Gartner.Another market researcher IC Insights predicted that Samsung would become the worlds biggest semiconductor chip supplier by 2014 when it surpasses Intel. For the ten-year period from 1999 to 2009, Samsungs compound annual growth rate (or CAGR) has been 13.5 percent, compared with that for Intel paltry 3.4 percent. Extrapolating this trend to the future, Samsung will be able to catch up with Intel by the year 2014, estimated IC Insights. IC Insights also said that Intels 2009 sales revenue had been 52 percent higher than that for Samsung, but that differential narrowed to only 21 percent during the second quarter of 2010 Another hitherto not-well-publicized area where Samsung had significant business in for years is the foundry segment. Samsung had begun investment in the foundry business since 2006 and now positioned it as one of the strategic pillars for semiconductor growth.

Galaxy Tab Samsung Electronics TVs and display products have undergone a race toward everslimmer panels. In 2009, the company succeeded in developing the super-slim panel for 40-inch LED TVs, with the thickness of 3.9 millimeters (0.15 inch). Dubbed the Needle Slim, the panel is as thick (or thin) as two coins put together. This is about a twelfth of the conventional LCD panel whose thickness is approximately 50 millimeters (1.97 inches). While reducing the thickness substantially, Samsung could maintain the performance as before, including full HD resolution, 120 Hz refresh rate, and 5000:1 contrast ratio. In October 2007, Samsung broke the 10-millimeter barrier by introducing the 10-mm thick 40-inch LCD TV panel, followed in October 2008 by the worlds first 7.9-mm panel.Samsung is leading the industry by developing panels for 24-inch LCD monitors (3.5 mm) and 12.1-inch laptops (1.64 mm).According to Samsung officials, the biggest factor in reducing the panel thickness was the LED backlight. They are optimistic that their company could cut TV width by 40 percent within two years from now.

For years in a row, Samsung has taken the top spot in the world TV market, with the launch of best-selling items. In 2009, it sold as many as 31 million flat-panel TVs, maintaining the top position for four consecutive years in terms of world market share. In early 2010, the company had set the years sales goal at 39 million units (including 10-million LED TVs). According to DisplaySearch, the U.S. market research and consulting firm, Samsung is forecast to take a 27-percent share for the global TV market in the second quarter of 2010 while LG Electronics accounts for 26.2 percent of the market. The market researcher predicted that Samsungs leadership would continue in 2011 Samsung Electronics is creating a new market by introducing the Finger-Slim LED TV. Launched in March 2009, the super-slim LED TV has thus far been sold as many as 2.6 million units. In 2009 alone, it was sold more than 2 million units, which brightens the future prospect. Samsung has led the flat-panel TV market for the past five years with the 2006 introduction of its Bordeaux line, followed by the 2007 Bordeaux model, the 2008 Crystal Rose line, and the Finger-Slim in 2009. The company retained the leading position by successfully selling more than 1 million 3D TVs as of August 2010. As rivals are jumping on the bandwagon, Samsung outstrips . em by consistently introducing new, better models. Today the company offers the full line of TVs, at many price points. This company is developing new LED TV models too. After expanding its TV lineups, Samsung became the industry-first 10-million-seller challenge. One of the new products to watch is the full HD 3D LED TV that was launched the first time in March 2010.Combining LED features with 3D functionality, the new 3D TV is expected to lead the market for years to come. Samsung showcased the new TV in the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2010) held in Las Vegas early this year. In 2009, Samsung TVs were selected in major U.K. publications and retailers as the best TV of the year. For example, Samsungs LED TV 7000 series was the winner of the Gadget Awards 2009 by T3, U.K.s most prestigious electronics magazine.

3D experience
Samsung sold more than 1 million 3D TVs within six months of its launch. This is the figure close to what many market researchers forecast for the years worldwide 3D TV sales (1.23 million units). It also debuted the 3D Home Theater (HT-C6950W) that allows the user to enjoy 3D image and surround sound at the same time. With the launch of 3D Home Theater, Samsung became the first company in the industry to have the full line of 3D offerings, including 3D TV, 3D Blu-ray play, 3D content, and 3D goggles. The company is trying offer the 3D content streaming service on its 3D TVs. Just like iTunes store, the Samsung 3D TV aims to allow the user to connect to its own online store, Samsung Apps, and download applications on the users hard disk drive.

Smart TVs and apps


Samsung has introduced the Internet TV in 2007 that enabled the audience to receive information from the Internet while at the same time watching conventional TV programming. Samsung is also developing a new Smart LED TV from which consumers can download applications as well as view Internet content. In 2008, the company launched the Power Infolink service, followed in 2009 by a whole new Internet@TV. In 2010, Samsung started marketing the 3D TV while unveiling the upgraded Internet@TV 2010, which offers free (or for-fee) download of applications from its Samsung Apps store, in addition to existing services such as news, weather, stock market, YouTube videos, and movies. Samsung Apps will provide for-fee premium services starting the latter half of 2010, beginning in Korea and the United States, followed early next year by the same services in Europe. The services will be custom-tailored for each regions culture. Samsung plans to offer family-oriented applications such as health care programs and digital picture frames as well as games. SamyGO community created at 2009 for hacking Samsung B series TV firmwares, and later supported A and C series TV's also, under GPLv2 license and deployed new applications like a tool increasing subtitle size and changing its color, enabling PVR

Samsung started to release restricted firmware updates starting from Feb 2010 for fixing security issues those used by SamyGO community and disabled firmware downgrade option from TV menus, which believed to disable the SamyGO project. But hackers find workarounds for those new restricted firmwares. Samsung expects that Samsung Apps would ultimately become a multi-device application store attracting users of all kinds of electronic device such as mobile phones, computers, and cameras. The company also reckons that its Smart TV will be the future home entertainment hub.

touch screen phones, and environmentally friendly phones. Samsungs flagship mobile handset line is the Galaxy S, which many consider a direct competitor of Apple's popular iPhone.It was initially launched in Singapore, Malaysia and South Korea in June 2010 followed by US variants called Vibrant and Captivate in July and Epic and Fascinate in August and September. It sold more than 1 million units within the first 45 days of in the US alone Samsungs I9000 Galaxy S and S8500 Wave smartphones were the winners of the 2010 European EISA Awards in the smartphone and social media phone categories. The I9000 Galaxy S was recognized for its superior-quality screen and excellent connectivity while the S8500 Wave for its Bada operating system with unparalleled social networking and location-based services. Samsungs 2010 smartphone shares worldwide are rising rapidly. The share in the United States has doubled in the second quarter of the year from the previous quarter. In the second quarter the company shipped as many as 3 million smartphones, a 173percent increase from the same period last year.[ In order to stay at the top of the business, Samsung employs quite a unique strategy: while many other handset makers tend to focus on supporting one (or at most two) operating system, Samsung has kept supporting a wide range of operating systems in the market. Although the Galaxy S adopts Google Android as the primary operating system, it also works on other competing operating systems such as Symbian, Microsoft Windows Phone, Linux-based LiMo, and Samsungs proprietary Bada. Samsungs mobile handsets have received rave reviews that they are superior to Apple handset lines while winning prestigious design awards in Europe and the United States. Amidst all these, the company set the sales goal of the 2010 yearend at 20 million units. But the company is not resting on its laurels: in fact, it is faced with challenges on all fronts. An alliance of Chinese low wage and Taiwanese technology is catching up closely. Smartphone makers such as Apple, RIM, and HTC are busy coming up with new models, all of which makes Samsung hard at work maintaining its top position.

Home appliances
In 2009, the year of worldwide recession due to the 2008 global credit crisis, Samsungs sales revenue rose 27 percent from the previous year, the biggest increase in the industry. In the home market, Samsung held the leading position thanks to strong sales of its flagship items, Zipel-brand side-by-side and kimchi refrigerators. In the North American, European, and Russian markets, it solidified its image as a premier home appliance maker by selling so many refrigerators, washing machines, air-conditioners, as well as new steam microwave ovens and robot vacuum cleaners. In a market clearly split into two extremes of upmarket and budget categories, Samsung employs a two-pronged strategy to emphasize its premium image for affluent consumers while marketing lower-end items with fewer bells and whistles for emerging economies consumers. In 2009, Samsung introduced a host of new products including a premium mini-laptop computer N310 and slim-sized laptop X420. The N310 and the X420 are the thirdgeneration laptops with all the advanced features as well as portability and connectivity. Thanks to these new market entrants, Samsung could sell as many as 6 million laptops for the year. In the printer business division, one of the nextgeneration strategic areas, Samsung launched mono-laser printer, multifunction printer, and enterprise-use high-speed digital multifunction printer models. Samsung was ranked second in the world in the area of letter-size (A4) laser printers. In other segments such as mono-laser printers, multifunction printers, and color laser printers, Samsung was first or second place in the world. In the laser multifunction printer segment, it became No. 1 the first time in its history, all of which indicates that Samsung is growing fast in the printer business despite under the condition of severe economic recession.

In 2010, Samsung introduced many new products boasting energy efficiency and ecofriendliness, including the premium laptop R580, netbook N210, the worlds smallest mono-laser printer ML-1660, and color laser multifunction printer CLX-3185. In the area of wireless networking, the mobile telecom protocols such as Mobile WiMax and WiBro, the protocols developed by Samsung and adopted in 2007 as international standards, are in wide commercial use in many overseas markets. Since mobile telecom service providers in the United States, Japan, and Russia began deploying the standards, more and more providers (as many as 139 providers in 75 countries) are readying to take it up. Digital cameras and camcorders are the areas Samsung cannot overlook. The company has introduced several models in these areas such as the WB550 (the premium camera), the ST550 (the dual-LCD-mounted camera), and the HMX-H106 (64GB SSD-mounted full HD camcorder). Samsung in 2009 took the third place in the compact camera segment. Since then, the company has focused more on high-priced items. In 2010, the company launched the NX10, the next-generation interchangeable lens camera, thereby commencing the race toward the new category of camera market. In the area of storage media, Samsung in 2009 succeeded in grabbing more than 10 percent of the world market share by introducing a new hard disk drive capable of storing 250 GB per 2.5-inch disk.In 2010, the company started marketing the 320Gbper-disk HDD, the largest in the industry. In addition, it is focusing more on selling external hard disk drives. In the MP3 player segment, Samsung is doing quite well.

Design
PUNAM YADAV BBA 4th 20011-012

Behind Samsungs rapid rise there lies design power. In the early 1990s, the firm began emphasizing the importance of design in its products. In its high-rise headquarters in Kangnam, south of Seoul, it locates the corporate design center in which more than 900 full-time designers are housed. In the beginning, there were only two designers in the whole company, whose number rose to 510 in 2005. Samsung overhauls its design in every two years. For the first year, it scrutinizes all the design trends of the world, followed by product strategies. It then maps out new design plans during the second year. Samsungs effort to improve design paid off: since 2006, it has won as many as 210 awards from internationally prestigious design institutions. For example, it received the iF (International Forum) and IDEA design awards. Samsung was the winner in eight categories in the 2009 IDEA awards, the company that received the most awards. There is compelling reason for Samsungs rise as a design powerhouse. Korea had for so long been considered a backwater for design excellence, especially compared to the Japanese counterparts famous for churning out eye-catching gadgets. Samsung established as many as seven design centers in the worlds major cities including Milan and London, as well as in Seoul. The professional designers working in these centers constantly monitor latest design trends in their cities while scanning cultural and lifestyle changes. In the 2010 iF Material Awards, Samsung won the Gold Award for five of its products including the external hard disk drive. The iF Material Awards are given by the International Forum Design GmbH of Hannover, one of the worlds most prestigious design awards for design materials and process technologies. In 2010, the German company selected a total of 42 products in the areas of home appliance, furniture, and industrial design. Samsung won the awards in five categories including external hard disk, full-touch screen phone, side-by-side refrigerator, compact digital camera, and laser printer toner.

Environmental record
PUNAM YADAV BBA 4th 20011-012

All Samsung mobile phones and MP3 players introduced on the market after April 2010 are free from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and brominated flame retardants (BFRs) The company is listed in Greenpeace's Guide to Greener Electronics, where in October 2010 it was ranked 5th out of 18 leading electronics makers. Compared to the previous ranking Samsung improved its position (it skipped from the 13th place, which it occupied in May 2010) mainly as a result of one of the penalty points being lifted and thanks to the improvements in its score on chemicals. In June 2004, Samsung was the first major electronics company to publicly commit to eliminate PVC and BFRs from new models of all its products. The company however failed to meet its deadlines to be PVC- and BFRs-free, and has published new phase out dates. Greenpeace activists protested at the company's Benelux headquarters in March 2010 for what Greenpeace calls Samsung's broken promises. Samsung Electronics has been taking the lead in industry efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; the company has been awarded as one of global top 10 companies in the Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index (CDLI). Samsung Electronics was the only Asian company among top 10 companies. As well, Samsung is listed in Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI). Samsungs achievement ratio of products approaching the Global Ecolabel level (Good Eco-Products within the company) is 11 percentage points above the 2010 goal (80%). As of the first half of 2010, Samsung earned the Global Ecolabel for its 2,134 models, thereby becoming the worlds No. 1 company in terms of the number of products meeting Global Ecolabel standards. The company is also accelerating its effort to recover and recycle electronic wastes. The amount of wastes salvaged throughout 60 countries during 2009 was as much as 240,000 tons. The Samsung Recycling Direct program, the companys voluntary recycling program under way in the United States, was expanded to Canada. For its recycling effort, Samsung was in 2008 praised by the U.S. advocacy group Electronics Take Back Coalition as the best eco-friendly recycling program.

The History of the Refrigerator


The refrigerator is a regular part of our daily lives. In a way, our homes, meals, families and daily lives revolves around that one piece of equipment sitting in our kitchen. How old is your refrigerator? Does it still work well? Did you recently upgrade to a new 'state-of-the-art' model? Today's refrigerator is quite a marvel, often including temperature sensors, alerts, compartments with different levels of coldness, and remote wireless controls. However, as far as refrigerators have come, they also have quite a history behind them. It's not a stretch to imagine why we sometimes refer to our refrigerators as ice boxes. In fact, before the true invention of the modern refrigerator that is exactly what they were: ice boxes or if you had the means ice houses. With ice houses, folks would build a mini storage hut and keep it near freshwater lakes. In the winter, when the lake froze, they cut up the ice and crammed it into the ice house. Then folks could keep their food fresh during the spring and summer months. From the history books, we know that the first known artificial refrigeration was demonstrated by an inventor named William Cullen at the University of Glasgow in 1748. That's way before electricity and frozen TV dinners! In the ensuing years there was plenty of tinkering going on in the race to develop a practical refrigerator for everyday use. It wasn't until 1922, when a couple of students at the Swedish Royal Institute of Technology invented the absorption refrigerator. This design was bought up by Electrolux for the purposes of commercialization. By 1923, Frigidaire had gotten into the game and created their own line up of self-contained refrigerator units for the home. The original cost was around $714 which was a huge sum back in those days especially when you compare it to the Model T Ford which only cost $450. Today, you can still get a refrigerator for around $714 but with a lot more space and a lot more bells and whistles. As cool as our modern refrigerators have become, when they are not in use they can become a hazard. That's why most states have enacted
PUNAM YADAV BBA 4th 20011-012

strict regulations for old refrigerator disposal. Basically, you can't have an old fridge on your property unless you take off the door or padlock it. This is one reason to upgrade to a brand new, state-of-the-art refrigerator. So, the next time you look at your new refrigerator, make sure to take the history of the refrigerator into account and be thankful for that incredible invention that keeps our foods cold.

We are always proud to let consumers know that Samsung refrigerators have its own way to prevent chocolates and ice cream from melting. It has a capacity to get the food to be frozen in a few minutes. Say goodbye to old-fashioned refrigerators that make you wait for a long time for your favorite beverage to get colder. Experience convenience using Samsung products. If consumers have experienced hearing an unpleasant sound coming from their refrigerators, their products have to be observed. When was the last time you defrost your refrigerator? Doing this helps your product to easily circulate the temperature inside and balance its coldness. It's like maintaining a good appliance at home. For sure, this will avoid refrigerators to react differently. Samsung also produced personal refrigerators that are not the same from the usual ones. The company added wine racks and special filtering system that ensures the cleanliness of your food. Samsung focuses on quality and safety.

SAMSUNG India strengthens its Home Appliances Range


Mar 21, 2007 World's First Quatro Cooling Refrigerator launched World's First Stabiliser free refrigerator range introduced

New Delhi, March 21, 2007: Digital technology leader, SAMSUNG India today strengthened its Home Appliance range by launching new refrigerator models. The Company today announced the launch of 9 new refrigerator models, including the world's First Quatro Cooling Refrigerator. SAMSUNG's new refrigerator range being launched today includes both frost-free and Direct-Cool refrigerators. "Refrigerators are the growth engines for our home appliance business this year", states Mr. R. Zutshi, Dy. Managing Director, SAMSUNG India Electronics Pvt. Ltd. Accordingly, SAMSUNG was the first Company to introduce its 4 Star rated frostfree refrigerators in the Indian market in January 2007, ahead of Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) guidelines. SAMSUNG , which is the market leader in the over 350 litre frost-free refrigerator segment is seeking to consolidate its position in this segment by launching three new, advanced feature rich models in 375 l (RT41MA), 400 l (RT45MA) and 704 l (RM-25DGSH) in the Indian market. SAMSUNG RM-25DGSH, the World's First Four Door Refrigerator with Quatro Cooling System, not only has four separate compartments, but each compartment is controlled and cooled separately with its own evaporator and fan, preventing mixing of odors as well as maintaining high humidity inside. It keeps food in optimal moisture and temperature conditions while making the refrigerator more versatile. The Quatro offers 4 customised settings per drawer to provide ideal storage conditions for different kinds of food, which makes food stay fresher for longer. The Quatro's Arctic Select Zone and Fresh Select Zone allow the user to select the temperature and functions as per his/her needs. Some of the other features of this refrigerator include

Digital Display & Control, Water and Ice Dispenser, Automatic Icemaker and Spill proof tempered glass shelves. The Quatro is priced at approximately Rs.150, 000/-. The RT41 and RT45 frost-free refrigerators are differentiated on account of their Coolever Zone and Cool Booster technology. While the Coolever Zone with its perfectly fitting Twin Vegetable baskets ensures the freshness of vegetables by maintaining a constant temperature and humidity level, the Cool Curtain technology causes a blanket of cold air to descend from the top to cool the food evenly, in both the front and back of the compartment. Furthermore, Cool Boosters on the sides ensure that the food stays optimally chilled, ensuring 3 dimensional cooling action throughout. The SAMSUNG Frost-free refrigerator models, RT25 (250 l), RT28 (280 l), RT31 (315 l) and RT34 (345 l) enjoy a 4 Star rating from the BEE, which makes them one of the most energy efficient refrigerator range in the country today. These refrigerators are equipped with an energy efficient compressor that can operate between 135 V~ 290 V, thus eliminating the need for a stabiliser. The unique i-Spin Cool feature in the refrigerator compartment allows the user to manipulate the direction of i-Spin Cool, so as to ensure faster cooling in the area they want. The Cool Pack feature ensures cooling in the Freezer even in case of prolonged power cuts while the toughened glass shelves can withstand more than 150 kg load without damage. The RT-25 is priced at Rs.15500/-, the RT-28 is priced at Rs.17100/-, the RT-31 at Rs.20, 600/- and the RT34 at Rs.22, 900/-.

SAMSUNG LAUNCHES ITS NEW, ADVANCED 'FRESHTECH' REFRIGERATOR SERIES IN THE INDIAN MARKET
On Apr 11, 2008

Launches Smart oven microwave ovens Targets over 50% growth in Frost free refrigerators and Microwave ovens

New Delhi, April 1, 2008: Digital technology leader, SAMSUNG India Electronics Ltd. today announced the launch of its new, advanced, 'Freshtech' refrigerator range in the Indian market. The SAMSUNG 'Freshtech' refrigerator range represents the Company's efforts to continuously introduce innovative, new technologies for the Indian consumer. Announcing the launch of the new, 'Freshtech' series, states Mr. R Zutshi, Dy. Managing Director, SAMSUNG India, The 2008 Freshtech range of refrigerators is differentiated on account of the unique benefits that it offers in terms of retaining the freshness and nutrition value of the fruits and vegetables being stored. The unique benefits that the new 'Freshtech' range of Frost free range offers is derived from the Unique Freshness Lamp that the range is equipped with. The Unique Freshness Lamp is located behind the Vegetable Box that emits Red Colour LED rays on the stored fruits and vegetables. The Red LED rays have a similar effect on the stored fruits and vegetables as sunlight has on plants, thereby enhancing their nutrition value and freshness. Tests conducted with the SAMSUNG 'Freshtech' refrigerators indicate that the red LED light emitted by the Freshness Lamp uses the principle of photosynthesis to enhance the nutrition value and preserve the freshness of fruits and vegetables stored for longer duration. In other words, vegetables regard red LED light as sunlight and tend to stay fresh. Studies have shown that fruits and vegetables stored in SAMSUNG Freshtech refrigerators have recorded a significant increase in Vitamin C, Polyphenol and Chlorophyll, which are known to have the following effects: anti aging and prevention of scurvy and anemia, thereby leading to vegetables retaining their nutrition and green colour and fruits ripening. The results of these tests have jointly been researched by the Korea Food Research Institute and SAMSUNG.
