EU ecolabel (Only EU ecolabel applied model)
LGE announced the 'LG Declaration for a Cleaner Environment 'in 1994, and this ideal has served as a Guiding
managerial principle ever since. The Declaration is a foundation that has allowed us to undertake Environmentally
friendly activities in careful consideration of economic, environmental, and social aspects. We promote activities for
environmental preservation, and we specifically develop our products to embrace the Concept of environment- friendly
through whole process from getting raw materials, production, transportation,
usage and end-of-life. These environmental characteristics are endorsed by the award of the European Commission as
approval of the product environmental status for energy saving, Facilities for recycling and a host of other features.
