Eco-friendly Products

The most significant environmental impact of our products is energy and water consumption when they are used. In order to minimize the impact, we are committed to improving the energy efficiency and reducing water consumption of our products by using vacuum insulation materials and Nano-trap filters. In particular, we are incorporating instant heating and semiconductor cooling technologies in our product development for better energy efficiency.

• 1) Water Footprint: quantifies the environmental impact based on the total amount of water used directly or indirectly for the entire process from acquisition of raw materials, production, distribution, use and disposal, and verified in accordance with ISO 14046 requirements
• 2) Carbon Neutral Product Certification: certification given to products that have acquired CER (certified emission reduction) equivalent to the greenhouse gas emitted throughout the entire production, distribution, use and disposal process or offsets the carbon emission through greenhouse gas reduction activities
• 3) Carbon Balloon: whereas Carbon Label calculates the environmental impact made throughout the entire process under Korean certification standards, Carbon Balloon is an international carbon certification that calculates the carbon emission under more stringent ISO14044 & PAS 2050 standards.
