On April 22, Tierra Day was celebrated as LG confirmed its compromise with sostenibilidad and ecological practice.
¿Come? With the announced certifications for our televisions LG 2024 OLED evo: Reducing CO21 y Measured CO22 from The Carbon Trust3 and Environmentally Evaluated Mark4 from the Société Générale de Surveillance SA (SGS). This is the follow-up to the investigation into LG’s ESG initiatives. LG’s new OLED televisions have achieved Recycled Content5 certification for the second time, increasing responsibility for LG’s mediocre environment.
The Carbon Trust works to help the world evaluate future carbon emissions from the impact of the entire environmental cycle on a product’s life cycle, enabling rapid use and elimination of production and distribution. The certification of SGS is central to the efficiency of the recursos and the presentation of peligrosary subsistence, while Intertek is in the middle of the use of recycling materials. The organizations’ respective organizations promote responsible consumer practices across industries and contribute to the goal of making more money around the world.
In particular, the automatic lighting capability of LG OLED televisions is carried out with the most stringent lighting capability evaluations. In addition to the difference between LG’s LCD televisions and OLED televisions, no retro lighting is required, which means a higher structure and many more components are required. For example, the LG OLED television is 65 years old, manufactured with ultra-light computers, requires only 40% of the plastic used on a high pantalla LCD television and 20% less.
According to the estimates of the LG OLED televisions, this year the plastic use of the LG OLED televisions from 2022 to 2024 sea 45,000 scenes means that the LCD televisions are sold in the recent period. The reduction in plastic use results in a reduction in carbon emissions of approximately 234,000 tons per year, equivalent to the carbon dioxide absorbed by a 30-year-old forest of pinos. This happens on an area of more than 31,000 football camps.
The plastic recycling products represent 20% of the plastic used in the manufacture of all LG televisions, including OLED, equivalent to 4,000 annual plastic recycling batteries.
Despite all the activities in the mediocre environment, the various initiatives of ESG have received the emails of national and international organizations. In 2023, LG participated in the global music program Dow Jones (DJSI World) for two consecutive competitions. The DJSI World classification for the time by the 2,500 major companies is a world of global functionality in economic, middle, social, social and managerial practices in a large square. The company’s inclusion on this prestigious list has become a significant event over the following years, as LG is a company that has taken hold of the leisure equipment and products category and consumer electronics industry.
Además, LG has received the rating “A” of the announcement of the evaluation and the calification ESG of the Korea ESG Standards Institute (KCGS) for several years in a row, and in recent years the company has become aware of the next opportunity for the rating “A” from the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) ESG classification.
