LG Chem is set to penetrate the North American market by participating in NPE 2024, the largest plastics trade show in North America.

From June 6th, LG Chem will showcase eco-friendly and high-value products under the theme of "The Sustainable and Innovative Solutions" at NPE 2024, held in Orlando, Florida, USA, for five days.

NPE 2024, hosted by The Plastics Industry Association, is considered one of the top three chemical industry expos globally, alongside CHINAPLAS (CPS) in China and K show in Germany.

LG Chem will operate a booth spanning 334 square meters (approximately 101 pyeong), the largest among Korean companies, featuring over 60 types of products. The company will also maintain six dedicated meeting rooms and a business lounge to facilitate communication with clients.

At this exhibition, LG Chem is actively targeting the North American eco-friendly market by operating two "LETZero zones" within the booth. Over 40% of LG Chem's products on display are eco-friendly, highlighting its commitment to sustainability.

The booth features distinct zones including the "LETZero zone" with compostable plastics and bio-based materials, the "Mobility zone" showcasing EV batteries and charging materials, and the "Living zone" which presents plastics made using carbon dioxide and materials produced through eco-friendly fermentation processes.

Amidst strengthening environmental regulations and a shift toward eco-friendly plastics in advanced economies including the U.S. and Europe, the eco-friendly market is thriving, with states across North America enhancing regulations to ensure all disposable packaging and utensils are recyclable or compostable.

Kug Lae Noh, Head of Petrochemicals Company at LG Chem, stated, "NPE 2024 will serve as a critical juncture for introducing LG Chem's eco-friendly and high-value strategic products in the North American market."

Furthermore, LG Chem is accelerating its penetration into the North American market with the establishment and operation of an ABS compound factory and a Customer Solution Center in Ohio, USA.
