LG ELECTRONICS PARTNERS WITH CARTLOW TO CHAMPION SUSTAINABLE E-WASTE RECYCLING FOR EARTH DAY
In celebration of Earth Day, LG Electronics is proud to announce a new collaboration with Cartlow, the region’s leading reverse logistics and re-commerce platform, reinforcing its commitment to sustainability through innovation. This partnership underscores LG’s dedication to reducing e-waste and fostering eco-friendly practices through innovative recycling initiatives.
Cartlow specializes in collecting, refurbishing, and reselling returned and used electronics, appliances, and other consumer products. Leveraging Cartlow’s advanced recycling technologies and well-developed logistics chains, LG will conduct a project for scrapping outdated and non-functional washing machines, refrigerators and displays. Leveraging Cartlow’s advanced recycling infrastructure, all units will be processed through rigorously managed channels that prioritize efficiency, traceability, and environmental integrity.
The partnership supports LG’s Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) framework, which places sustainability at the core of its operations. Through this initiative with Cartlow, LG ensures that all recycled appliances are handled using environmentally sound methods designed to minimize waste and optimize material recovery. The resulting materials will carry financial value, which LG will dedicate to charitable causes—further reinforcing its commitment to social responsibility.
Besides its physical environmental effects, this project seeks to enhance awareness of the necessity of effective e-waste management. With electronic equipment and domestic appliances increasingly becoming part of the fabric of daily life, their end-of-life disposal must be managed to avert environmental degradation.
This initiative focuses exclusively on LG’s internal inventory, demonstrating the company’s proactive approach to sustainability. By taking responsibility for its own products, LG is setting a positive example for the industry and reinforcing its commitment to environmental stewardship.
As Earth Day serves as a global reminder of the need to protect our planet, LG Electronics is proud to take meaningful action through this collaboration with Cartlow. Together, they aim to drive positive change, reduce e-waste, and support charitable causes, paving the way for a more sustainable tomorrow.
