Eco-friendly Materials Brand LETZero

LG Chem develops high‑quality Post‑Consumer Recycled (PCR) materials by collecting, pulverizing, and sorting plastics discarded after consumer use, applying its proprietary recycling technology. Plastic film and composite plastics that are difficult to recycle mechanically are processed through chemical recycling and converted into circular raw materials. LG Chem’s PCR materials deliver quality equivalent to virgin plastics and demonstrate outstanding performance even in technically demanding transparent and white applications. Upon customer request, a variety of global eco‑friendly certifications can be provided. Through resource circulation of waste plastics, LG Chem contributes to waste reduction, energy savings, and lower carbon emissions.​

After collection, plastic wastes are classified by type. Once the impurities are removed by cleaning and sorting, the plastic waste is recycled through the regeneration process. LG Chem combines high-quality recycled materials and other materials to produce virgin-quality recycled plastics. LG Chem provides certification for PCR content from eco-friendly certification bodies such as UL ECV (Environmental Claims Validations), TUV (Technical Inspection Association in Germany), and GRS (Global Recycled Standard) upon customer request.

Plastic waste that is difficult to recycle mechanically is converted back into raw‑material‑level feedstock through chemical recycling processes such as sorting and purification. The circular raw materials produced through this process replace fossil‑based feedstocks and are used in the manufacturing of various chemical products. Upon customer request, global eco‑friendly certifications such as ISCC PLUS can be provided, contributing to the creation of sustainable value.​
