LG Electronics (LG) will shine a spotlight on its continued commitment to sustainability at CES 2023, showcasing its ESG vision and latest impactful innovations in an exclusive exhibition called A Better Life for All.
Offering a comprehensive overview of LG's sustainability efforts, including its key ESG milestones, current initiatives and long-term goals, the Better Life for All zone consists of three unique sections: For the planet, for people and our commitment. The exhibition will also feature the four finalist entries for LG's first LIFE'S GOOD Award, an innovation challenge created to spread the company's Life's Good message and empower innovators seeking to make a positive difference for people and the planet.
Key focuses of LG's ESG agenda have been incorporated into all aspects of the Better Life for All zone. Information materials provided in the area will offer Braille for the visually impaired and will be placed at a height that allows easy reading for people who use wheelchairs.
Proficient natural language guides will be on site, as will an LG CLOi GuideBot program to provide digital-human sign language services. The area itself will be built with the use of eco-friendly materials.
A better life for all: innovations for a sustainable future and the Better Life Plan 2030
The For the Planet section of the area presents LG's various environmental initiatives, which include the establishment of safety systems that prioritize "green" considerations at every point in the product life cycle, such as the collection, disposal and reuse of electronic waste in the post-use phase. For the Planet visitors can see how materials extracted from discarded e-waste at the company's Chilseo Recycling Center (CRC) are being used to make parts for new LG products. Also highlighted in For the Planet is LG Smart Park (Changwon, South Korea), the company's energy-efficient factory, and a new expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam recycling technology developed by LG to make product packaging more environmentally friendly.
The second section of the exhibition, For People, showcases LG's efforts and achievements in product and service accessibility. These include the development of product manuals that incorporate voice and sign language guides and the implementation of accessibility features, such as voice recognition, voice prompt and motion detection sensors, across a wide range of LG products.
For People will also give visitors the opportunity to explore the accessibility options available on LG TVs; from audio to text subtitles to a sign language display that can be easily moved and resized.
Our Commitment, the third and final section of the Better Life for All area, reflects LG's dedication to ensuring a sustainable future, the ultimate goal of the company's Better Life Plan 2030. LG aims to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from product manufacturing by 50 percent (compared to 2017 levels), and GHG emissions from the use of seven key products by 20 percent per unit sold by 2030 from a base year of 2020. Additionally, the company plans to offer accessibility features for all of its product lines by 2025 and provide a voice instruction manual and a video manual in sign language. for every LG product by 2030.
“At LG, we constantly challenge ourselves to go the extra mile to realize our vision of a better life for everyone,” said Lee Jeong-seok, head of LG Electronics Global Marketing Center. “Our ESG-focused exhibition will provide CES visitors with insight into the values, determination and dedication that drive our sustainability journey and the innovative technologies and practices we are developing to ensure a brighter tomorrow.”
