Through continuous research and development cooperation over the past two years, Hanwha Solutions and LG Display have succeeded in developing eco-friendly packaging materials with quality equivalent to existing packaging materials. Starting from January next year, they plan to gradually introduce these materials to various product groups, beginning with packaging materials for automotive display panels.

Recycled polyethylene (rPE) is a plastic recycled material from Hanwha Solutions that has obtained the ‘GRS (Global Recycled Standard)’ certification, an international recycling standard from the reputable global certification body Control Union, and can be used as raw material for various industrial applications.

A Hanwha Solutions official stated, “We are expanding the supply of rPE to various industrial sectors such as industrial recycled packaging bags and eco-friendly cosmetic packaging,” adding, “By diversifying the items applying eco-friendly recycled materials, we will contribute to revitalizing the circular economy and reducing carbon emissions.”
