## LG ELECTRONICS GAS DOUBLE OVEN RANGE. WORLD’S FIRST TO MEET NEW SUSTAINABILITY STANDARD

### LG Sustainability Standard : Tested by CSA Group,

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Feb. 11, 2015 – LG Electronics’ high-performance double-
oven range is, surprisingly, the first in the world to meet the requirements of 
the industry’s new Sustainability Standard for Household Cooking Appliances. This
milestone, therefore, underscores the company’s unwavering commitment to innovation
and environmentally-friendly practices. Furthermore, this standard, which is recognized
as a benchmark for [energy efficiency and sustainability](https://greenlivingguy.com/2021/03/tips-for-buying-the-right-camping-generator/),
was developed collaboratively by the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers(
AHAM), CSA Group, and UL Environment. Consequently, this reflects a unified effort
aimed at [reducing the environmental impact of cooking appliances](https://greenlivingguy.com/2022/04/reducing-energy-debts-from-covid-19/)
while, at the same time, maintaining high quality and performance standards. With
this significant achievement, LG Electronics not only sets a new precedent in the
appliance industry but also, importantly, promotes the adoption of sustainable technologies
among consumers. This encourages a shift towards greener cooking methods that, ultimately,
benefit both households and the planet.

LG Model LDG3036ST is the first gas range to meet the new Sustainability Standard
for Household Cooking Appliances (AHAM 7004-2015/CSA SPE-7004-15/UL 7004-15). It
sets a benchmark in the industry. This innovative [appliance showcases LG’s commitment to sustainability](https://greenlivingguy.com/2022/02/the-checklist-for-a-modern-sustainable-kitchen-renovation/)
and environmental responsibility. According to CSA Group, they verified and issued
the standard-compliance certificate after extensive testing. This fact highlights
the rigorous evaluations that the gas range passed successfully. Moreover, LG received
a certificate for its flagship double-oven electric range, model LDE3037ST. This
model also demonstrated compliance with the 2015 cooking sustainability standard.
Thus, LG solidifies its reputation as a leader in energy-efficient and eco-friendly
appliances. Overall, these accolades emphasize LG’s dedication to high-performance
cooking options. They prioritize [sustainability and eco-friendliness in their products](https://greenlivingguy.com/2022/07/benefits-of-using-eco-friendly-car-cleaning-products/).
