LG Display announced that it has received a "Zero Waste to Landfill (ZWTL)" verification from UL Solutions, a global independent safety science company, across all of its Korean production plants in Paju and Gumi.
The ZWTL verification is given to companies that achieve a recycling rate of over 90 percent. LGD says that it actually achieved a recycling rate of over 98% in 2021. Its plants in Korea generated 124,644 tons of waste, out of which 122,820 was recycled. The company says the recycling effort contributed around $15 million, from reduced waste disposal costs and profits from selling waste resources.
LG's achievement is excellent, but the company says it still continues to strive to increase its resource recycling, minimize waste generation and implement more eco-friendly habits.
