        As global environmental awareness gradually increases, environmental protection concepts are deeply rooted in people's hearts. Not only in high-end watches, but also in the selection of materials for smart watches, we can see that major brands have chosen sustainable green and environmentally friendly recycled materials.

 

      For example, Apple Watch uses recycled materials to make parts, and the case uses 100% recycled aluminum metal; Samsung launched a watch strap made of recyclable and eco-friendly materials including apple leather for Galaxy Watch 4. Google's recently launched smartwatch Google Pixel Watch is also one of the classic application cases of sustainable recycled materials in the field of smart watches. Its watch frame is made of 80% recycled stainless steel, and some watch straps are made of 100% recyclable wool.

 

       Recently, Razer held RazerCon2022, where many new products were unveiled. Razer and watch brand Panerai jointly launched the new Lumino Quaranta Razer watch, which is priced at 63,300 yuan and is limited to 500 pieces worldwide. Recycled materials are an important part of this new product.

 

       It is reported that this watch adopts the highly acclaimed Lumino series watch design, and its important components are all made of recycled materials. The 40mm case is forged from eSteel™, an advanced material made from recycled materials. It contains 95% recycled steel, which can greatly reduce the brand's carbon emission needs and has the same high strength as traditional similar materials. The dial is made of recycled steel and diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating, with outstanding texture. The Razer classic three-headed snake logo is printed on the dial and the bottom cover. The luminous hands are made of Super-LumiNova® green luminous material, which complements the electric green of the second hand and the strap stitching; it can be matched with two interchangeable straps, including a recyclable PET woven strap and a black rubber strap. The watch box is made of 72% recyclable materials and FSC-certified paper materials.

 

       With the increasing severity of global warming, marine pollution, and resource shortages, the recycling of renewable resources is one of the ways to reduce carbon emissions. At the same time, it also has the synergistic benefits of reducing pollutant emissions. It is undoubtedly an important way to achieve carbon peak and carbon neutrality. Driven by the trend of green environmental protection, the application of recyclable and renewable materials has become a trend in the design and development of consumer electronic products.
