ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Oct. 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Recognizing the company's progress in achieving its aggressive waste reduction goals, LG Electronics has been named a 2022 Eco-Leader. This is the fourth consecutive year the company has earned this highly coveted distinction from Green Builder® Media.
Every year, Green Builder's Eco-Leader program recognizes companies that have promoted and fostered initiatives that enhance sustainability in the built environment. This year's focus is on the circular economy, underscoring the importance of resource efficiency. Achieving a 2022 Eco-Leader award showcases LG's continued actions toward sustainability and the company's goal of recycling 95 percent of waste produced at production sites worldwide by the year 2030.
LG's implementation of waste treatment practices is an eco-friendly and effective approach to reducing production waste. Through careful execution, LG manages and monitors the waste recycling process that occurs at each of the company's production sites. The processes consist of utilizing a transportation system for waste build-up at production sites, researching new recycling technologies and honoring a resource circulation program that increases the collection of e-waste and decreases risk.
