Peoria, Ariz. – April 27, 2007 – Just in time for Earth Day, LG HI-MACS, a leader in premium acrylic solid surfacing, introduces a new line of acrylic solid surfaces certified by Scientific Certification Systems (SCS) – the LG Eden Collection. This new line of earth-friendly surfaces will help customers meet the demands of new green building standards and programs.

One of the most environmentally conscious acrylic products in the industry, LG Eden is available in six natural colors – Cocoa, Honeysuckle, Ivy, Jasmine, Juniper and Lemongrass – all developed using at least 12 percent pre-consumer recycled materials. Like all LG surfaces, the Eden line is non-porous, anti-microbial, stain-resistant and backed by a 15-year warranty. During the manufacturing process, LG takes an environmentally responsible approach to handling imperfect sheets by utilizing them as regrind material to be used in standard line colors versus sending them to a landfill.

LG Eden is certified for its recycled content by the Scientific Certification Systems (SCS). With this independent, third-party certification, LG Eden can contribute to the points needed for a building to earn LEED certification credits within the Materials and Resources category, one of six categories in which buildings can earn credits to achieve various levels of LEED certification.

Durable and long lasting, LG Eden can be easily repaired, refinished and brought back to its original condition. It can also be removed, recut and installed as a new design or seamlessly reworked into new products.
