LG AC first to receive carbon free certification for eco-friendly credentials

LG Electronics, the global leader and technology innovator in consumer electronics, mobile communications and home appliances, announced on December 13 that its Multi V III (ARUN072DT3) is the world’s first air conditioner to receive the Carbon Free Certification from Carbonfund.org, a North American authority on evaluating the impact individuals and businesses have on the environment. 

Carbonfund.org grants the Carbon Free label based on emissions generated by a product throughout its entire lifecycle, spanning from manufacturing and shipment to usage and final disposal. The Multi V III’s Carbon Free recognition results largely from LG’s own lifecycle analysis (LCA) program which pursues reductions in the company’s overall carbon footprint. 

“Consumers in the Arab countries have shown a very strong interest in eco-friendly products,” said Mr. Haenam Ahn, General Manager, AC Levant for LG Electronics. “We are delighted to be able to offer a product that meets Carbonfund.org’s incredibly high standards. As a total HVAC and energy solution company, LG is committed to developing products that are both technologically superior and environmentally responsible.” 

The Multi VIII, which was recently launched in Jordan through its distributer, Al Asalah Electro mechanics, was designed to be as eco-friendly as it is powerful. Underpinned by LG’s unique Inverter Technology, the Multi V III delivers a coefficient of performance (COP) level of 4.6, one of the highest COPs in the industry. In other words, the Multi V III emits less CO2 compared to any other air conditioner, helping to slow global warming.
