SEOUL, July 4, 2023 — LG Electronics’ (LG) Software Center has been officially designated a TÜV Rheinland Appointed Laboratory for the purpose of evaluating the functional safety of home appliance software. LG is the first company to have its dedicated software testing facility receive this particular accreditation from TÜV Rheinland, a global leader in testing, inspection and certification services.

Using tests conducted in accordance with relevant international standards (IEC 60730-1, IEC 60335-1), LG can evaluate the architecture of software applied to its smart home appliances to determine if functional safety requirements have been met. This will help the company to reduce the length of time needed to provide its customers with safe, high-quality products.

Additionally, LG expects that the accreditation for software testing will further strengthen the competitiveness of its home appliance business, enhancing the trust that customers have in the reliability and overall quality of its advanced household solutions.

LG continues to advance its business portfolio by expanding its software capabilities across all business areas. In June 2022, the Software Center was designated a TÜV Rheinland Appointed Laboratory, becoming a credible provider of automotive software functional safety evaluations. Prior to that, the center earned accreditation from the Korea Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (KOLAS) to assess autonomous vehicle software and measure the quality of electric and electronic products.

“We will continue to pursue a variety of activities and initiatives to enhance software quality and boost public confidence, which will ultimately help strengthen the software competitiveness of LG’s products and services,” said Park In-sung, head of the Software Center at LG Electronics.

      In a strategic move to bolster its presence in Indonesia, LG is accelerating the capabilities of its Research and Development (R&D) Center in the country by investing in its most valuable asset – its people.

      Last year,
      link hidden, please login to view officially opened its world-class R&D facility, aiming to elevate the company’s operational capabilities and further its mission of delivering quality products to more consumers worldwide. The 40,000-square-meter R&D center in Cibitung is set to become a pivotal hub for LG’s expansion into new global markets. This facility allows LG to implement a one-stop operation in Indonesia, integrating its supply chain processes into a seamless workflow that encompasses development, production, sales, marketing and customer service. This makes LG Indonesia the first LG subsidiary in the world capable of performing these roles simultaneously.

      “Our R&D Center in the heart of Indonesia reinforces our unwavering dedication to serving Indonesia with the highest quality products, bringing up highly competitive manpower with creating jobs, transferring knowledge and making innovations,” said Lee So-yeoun, president of the LG R&D Center in Indonesia. “We anticipate our Indonesia R&D Center to continue positively impacting not only the company but also Indonesia’s broader society.”
      This state-of-the-art facility will not only serve as a testing ground for LG’s latest innovations but also support the development of new TVs for the global market.

      The center conducts rigorous tests on products to assess their resistance to moisture, heat and vibration as well as the packaging’s ability to protect items from significant drops. These tests are carried out to verify the durability of LG TVs throughout the product life cycle, from shipment to actual use.

      Beyond technological development, LG Indonesia seeks to empower local human resources through the new facility. As part of this initiative, LG Indonesia sent 100 local workers to South Korea for a training program to equip them with the necessary knowledge and skills. A highly competent local team leads the facility’s technical and development quality assurance departments, and LG has employed approximately 400 people to run it, with plans to recruit more over the coming years.

      To further improve its human resources, LG’s Indonesia R&D Center is exploring scholarship programs, internships, project sponsorships and partnerships with prominent local educational institutions. This initiative aims to strengthen the industry-academia relationship while creating broader opportunities for Indonesia’s talented youth. This will almost certainly foster greater innovation, leading to new products designed for the global market.
      The Indonesia R&D Center’s high operational standards have earned it three ISO certifications for SHEE (Safety, Health, Environment and Energy): ISO 14001 (Environmental Management), ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety) and ISO 50001 (Energy Management), emphasizing its dedication to safe, eco-friendly operations.

      With the implementation of an advanced Building Management System (BMS), LG’s Indonesia R&D Center ensures environmental sustainability and energy efficiency by monitoring and controlling the air conditioning, ventilation, water systems, fire alarms and power.
      Beyond enhancing operational efficiency, the R&D Center aims to help the company comply with national standards by adapting its products to better serve the local market, such as acquiring the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) certification. Among its most valuable contributions so far, the facility helped develop the LG OLED G4, the latest OLED TV which uses 60 percent less plastic than conventional televisions and recently received the Eco-friendly Certification for the fourth consecutive year.

      Looking ahead, LG’s Indonesia R&D Center will continue to promote sustainability through key ESG initiatives organized under the “LG LOVES Indonesia” program. With a focus on the environment, education, community welfare and child development, the company has already initiated several projects in Indonesia, including “LG Loves Green,” “LG Loves School,” “LG Loves and Cares” and “LG Loves Children.”
      Keep an eye on the to see how else the company is putting its Life’s Good motto into action while striving to make meaningful contributions to local communities.
