Sustainable Technology

LG has prioritized sustainability for healthy and better lifestyle.
  • The fabric is inside the washing machine, and in the center of washing machine is a shirt icon. It seems to show that the laundry motion is determined according to the laundry status.

    AI DD™

    AI DD™ detects the weight and fabric softness of each wash, and calibrate the optimal wash cycles, providing 18% more fabric protection.1)

  • There are three small images inside LG Styler. A wardrobe hanging from a hanger and a white shirt show steaming.

    Steam™

    Steam™ technology featured in LG clothing care appliances harnesses the natural power of steam to eliminate the fabric stains and the bacteria.2)

  • This image is an internal projection and shows the operation of the DUAL Inverter Heat Pump technology.

    DUAL Inverter Heat Pump™

    Using lower GWP refrigerant3), DUAL Inverter Heat Pump™ meets the sustainable use of resources as well as protects garment from damage with low temperature heat pump technology.

1) Tested by Intertek in March 2019, comparing Cotton cycle with 2kg of underwear to LG's conventional Cotton cycle (F4V9RWP2W vs. FC1450S2W). AI DD available for three cycles (Cotton, Mixed Fabric and Easy Care). Results may differ depending on product models.
2) Approved by BAF (British Allergy Foundation) for reduction in exposure to live house dust mite, bacteria (E. coli and S. aureus).
3) World's first dryer certified as a TUV Green product, recognizing our efforts to minimize environmental impact.
  • You can see the windy blue beam emitted by the LG Inverter Linear Compressor™.

    Inverter Linear Compressor™

    Having fewer internal friction points, LG Inverter Linear Compressor™ has less wear and tear while consumes less energy, saving up to 32% energy consumption.1)

  • A knock icon is displayed on the top right door of the refrigerator to indicate that it can be opened by knocking.

    InstaView™ Door-in-Door™

    InstaView™ Door-in-Door™ allows to see inside without opening the door, helping reduce cold air loss2) and providing quick and easy access the favorites.

  • The UVnano function works with the water purifier dispenser built in the refrigerator.

    UVnano™

    With UVnano™, LEDs emit purifying UV rays remove bacteria growth from the water dispenser tap3), making both safer for a healthy home setting.

1) Tested by VDE by comparing energy consumption between LG model GBB530NSCXE (LG Inverter Linear Compressor) and GBB530NSQWB (LG conventional reciprocating compressor). Energy consumption test based on ISO 15502 standard.
2) Reduction of cold air loss up to 41 percent based on Intertek testing of models SX5534WB, GR-S632GLRC and LFX3194ST/02 using LG internal testing method measuring percentage reduction in exchange rate of air when opening Door-in-Door™ compared to regular refrigerator door for 10 seconds. Results may vary by model and duration of door opening.
3) Assessed by TÜV Rheinland using LG testing method measuring reduction of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in distilled water samples after exposure to product's UV LED for 10 minutes per hour after total of 24 hours in normal household use setting. Actual results may vary depending on environmental conditions and usage.
  • The image shows the DUAL Inverter Compressor™ and parts around it in the center of the background with trees in the forest.

    DUAL Inverter Compressor™

    Delivers an efficient cooling performance, using up to 70 percent less energy than conventional residential air conditioning solutions.1)

  • The components that make up the air conditioner are all disassembled and slightly apart, and the core technology of the air solution seems to have been described as blue rays.

    UVnano™

    With UVnano™, LEDs emit purifying UV rays to remove bacteria from the fan within LG air solutions, making cleaner, healthier breeze.2)

  • There are a white house and a LG outdoor unit with a background that harmonizes with green tones of nature. The R32 logo is written in the lower right corner.

    Next-Generation Refrigerant

    By adopting a low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant (R32) to its various heating and air conditioning solution, LG is presenting solutions that pose less threat to the environment.

1) Based on TÜV Rheinland tests conducted according to LG internal test methods comparing cooling time and power consumption. Test conducted in a chamber of 69㎥ (4.3 x 7.0 x 2.3m) at a temperature of 33℃ with a relative humidity of 60 percent using LG air conditioner with DUAL Inverter Compressor (model US-Q242Kxy0) and LG air conditioner with constant speed compressor (model TS-H2465DA0). Energy savings is measured by comparing the power consumption of the two models during 8 hours of operation. Cooling speed is measured by the time it takes to cool the chamber from 33℃ to 26.5℃.
2) Removes up to 99.99 percent of bacteria – Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Klebsiella pneumoniae – from the fan according to tests conducted by TÜV Rheinland with models S3NM12JL1GA (SJ), S3NM09AA1MA (SA) and S3NM24K21GA (SK) using LG test method in compliance with ISO 20743:2007.

LG Recycling Center

Helping to create the virtuous cycle by improving recycling efficiency and reducing the environmental impact from products reaching the end of their lifespan, LG runs a recycling facility in its home country. Every year, LG Recycling Center recycles more than half a million home appliances, producing 20,000 tons of recycled materials.

The Virtuous Cycle of Recycling

One of the best ways to save the planet is to create a virtuous cycle where we recycle, reuse and repurpose what we already have. From eco-conscious manufacturing and product design to responsible recycling and waste management and development of sustainable technologies, LG continues its journey to preparation for a better tomorrow.

Access for All

From a product development stage, LG Electronics considers accessibility features so that the socially underprivileged group including physically challenged, the elderly, children, and pregnant women, do not experience inconvenience in using LG’s products.
