Parceria com a ABREE integra os serviços gratuitos de recebimento de resíduos disponibilizados pela empresa em mais de 50 países

SÃO PAULO, 15 de setembro de 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Reforçando seu compromisso com a preservação do meio ambiente, a LG Electronics informa que desde 2006 já resgatou um total acumulado de 3.992.768 toneladas de eletroeletrônicos e eletrodomésticos em todo o mundo. Desde 2022, são 472.876 toneladas de resíduos em 52 países, utilizando 32.987 toneladas de plásticos reciclados nos produtos da empresa, um aumento de 25% no uso do material em relação a 2021.

Os dados são do Relatório de Sustentabilidade 2022-2023* que traz os esforços da companhia em desenvolver soluções mais sustentáveis – da produção ao descarte –, como o Programa Coleta Inteligente que há mais de 10 anos oferece destino ambientalmente correto para pilhas e baterias em mais de 67 pontos espalhados pelo Brasil.

Para reforçar os serviços gratuitos de recebimento de resíduos eletroeletrônicos disponível em diversos países, a LG também conta com o apoio da Associação Brasileira de Reciclagem de Eletroeletrônicos e Eletrodomésticos (ABREE), responsável pela gestão da logística reversa de produtos pós-consumo, contribuindo para que a companhia cumpra as diretrizes estabelecidas pela Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos (PNRS).

"A parceria com a ABREE otimiza o acesso dos consumidores da LG aos mais de quatro mil pontos de recebimento disponíveis, garantindo a destinação final ambientalmente correta a 100% dos produtos quando chegar o momento de descartá-los. Queremos engajar as pessoas para assumirem conosco este compromisso com o meio ambiente, parte relevante nas nossas metas globais de sustentabilidade", afirma Sonah Lee, head de Marketing Corporativo e ESG da LG Electronics do Brasil.

A LG conta com o apoio da ABREE para aumentar o número de descarte adequado desse tipo de resíduo, parte dos seis compromissos estabelecidos pela companhia no "Plano para uma Vida Melhor 2030" (Better Life Plan 2030), que tem entre as suas metas incluir um total acumulado de 600 mil toneladas de plásticos reciclados na produção global de novos eletrodomésticos, de 2021 a 2030.

Responsabilidade compartilhada

Na prática, enquanto a LG se compromete em desenvolver produtos com o menor impacto ambiental, com uma linha de produção mais sustentáveis em suas unidades – como a fábrica LG Smart Park em Changwon, na Coreia do Sul, que recebeu o título de "Fábrica Farol" (Lighthouse Factory) pelo Fórum Econômico Mundial (World Economic Forum)** - e na implementação de logística reversa, a ABREE auxilia os consumidores no descarte dos seus eletroeletrônicos e eletrodomésticos, disponibilizando centrais de logística reversa em mais de 1,3 mil municípios de 26 estados brasileiros e no Distrito Federal.

"É necessário disseminar informações sobre os riscos ambientais e de saúde associados ao descarte inadequado, além de educar as pessoas sobre as opções disponíveis para o descarte responsável, como postos de coleta e campanhas de reciclagem", afirma Helen de Souza Brito, gerente de Relações Institucionais da ABREE.

Para facilitar o acesso, o site da associação conta com um sistema para consulta dos locais que recebem produtos eletroeletrônicos e dão encaminhamento ambientalmente adequado. Acesse o link e saiba mais.

**Em reconhecimento aos seus esforços na redução das emissões de GEE no seu processo de produção, ao mesmo tempo que aumentou a eficiência energética em 30% comparado as antigas instalações.  Destaque para as soluções de gestão de energia, como a Energy Storage System (ESS) e o Building Energy Control (BECON), para   gerenciamento inteligente de energia.
