The OLED-Info newsletter (July 30, 2022)

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.
