LG Electronics (CEO Cho Joo-wan) announced on the 24th that it was selected as the company with the most awards, with 15 products in the home appliance sector being selected as Green Products of the Year.
In addition, the company has also won the ‘Green Masterpiece Award’, the highest corporate award, for five consecutive years. This award is given to companies that have made significant contributions to environmentally friendly activities such as the development of green products and have received the ‘Green Product of the Year’ award for more than 11 years.
The Green Product of the Year in Korea, which began in 2008, is selected by the Korea Green Purchasing Network, a non-profit civic group, through an evaluation of all stages of the product life cycle, including manufacturing, distribution, use, and disposal, by 19 consumer and environmental groups in 7 regions across the country and approximately 300 general customers.
The secret to LG Electronics’ differentiated eco-friendliness and high efficiency of home appliances lies in its core component technology, ‘Core Tech.’ In particular, inverter technology changes the speed of the motor and compressor to operate the product only as much as necessary depending on the situation, thereby improving the performance of premium home appliances as well as their energy efficiency. LG Electronics develops and produces its own core components, compressors and motors.
The most popular products chosen by consumers were the Whisen Dual Cool wall-mounted air conditioner and the Dios Objet Collection top-freezer bottom-freezer refrigerator.
The Whisen Dual Cool wall-mounted air conditioner uses AI to identify the user’s location in real time through a radar sensor, and operates the two outlets located on the front and bottom of the product according to the situation to provide optimal cooling. In particular, the indirect wind coming from the front outlet extends far along the ceiling and slowly descends, providing a soft sense of comfort.
The LG Dios Objet Collection top-freezer bottom-freezer refrigerator uses the AI function of LG Electronics’ premium refrigerator, the ‘AI Fresh Care System’, to analyze refrigerator usage patterns and maintain a constant temperature. For example, if a customer frequently uses the refrigerator in the morning, it operates in concentrated cooling mode in advance to reduce the rise in internal temperature.
In addition, ▲Code Zero A9S cordless vacuum cleaner ▲PuriCare water purifier ▲Dios microwave oven ▲Styler ▲Dios dishwasher ▲Dios kimchi refrigerator ▲Whisen View air conditioner ▲Dios convertible refrigerator ▲Trom Wash Tower ▲Trom Wash Combo ▲Tumbler washing machine ▲Dios induction ▲PuriCare Hydro Tower were selected as green products of the year.
LG Electronics H&A Business Division President Ryu Jae-cheol said, “We are expanding high-efficiency home appliances by combining differentiated core component technologies such as motors and compressors with artificial intelligence,” adding, “We will provide a next-level customer experience with our advanced technologies.”
