Sustainability Strategy

LG Chem pursues sustainable innovation based on our Sustainability Vision, which encompasses customers, the environment, and social values, throughout our business activities.

Sustainability

Sustainability is one of the core values in implementing LG Chem’s vision, “We connect science to life for a better future.” As an international corporation that has an influence on humanity and the global environment, we have the social responsibility to create values that contribute to a sustainable future.
  • Climate Change
    Climate Change
    Climate change represents the most urgent and serious crisis facing humanity. LG Chem, a trailblazer in the Korean chemical industry, declared its goal of achieving carbon-neutral growth by 2050 in July 2020. Over the past two years, the company has made significant strides by implementing various global carbon reduction activities. As a result, we have set a new target to achieve net-zero by 2050, advancing our original 2050 carbon-neutral growth goal by 20 years. To realize this vision, we are innovating our business portfolio with a focus on low-carbon and eco-friendly solutions and actively pursuing a transition to renewable energy.
  • Circularity
    While plastic has greatly enhanced convenience in human life, it also poses a challenge due to its slow decomposition and potential environmental impact. LG Chem is actively promoting the mechanical and chemical recycling of plastic waste to establish a virtuous cycle of resource circulation. With a stable supply chain of plastic waste materials, we provide high-quality recycled plastics, offering differentiated value to our customers. As a global battery material company, we are also actively nurturing battery recycling businesses to contribute to cost reduction and the expansion of electric vehicles. Through these efforts, we at LG Chem are working to realize a circular economy and create a sustainable future.
  • Supply Chain
    LG Chem believes it is our obligation as a global company to manage our supply chain as responsibly as possible in procuring raw materials. We are setting strict standards throughout our production processes as well as the supply chain, establishing an ethical and responsible system for sourcing raw materials.
  • Compliance
    Compliance, which includes environmental safety, hazardous substance management, and abiding by the law, is a set of basic standards that must be observed in business operations. LG Chem strives to minimize potential risks by thoroughly practicing the requirements in our business operations.
  • Human Rights
    Respect and fair treatment are perhaps some of the most important aspects of conducting business. LG Chem respects the rights of our employees, builds their capacities, and treats them fairly to create a corporate culture where they can thrive.
