LG Display Achieves UL Solutions Eyesafe Verification for OLED Television and Monitors

The UL Solutions Marketing Claim Verification confirms LG Displayā€™s reduced blue light emissions claims.




NORTHBROOK, Ill.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–UL Solutions (NYSE: ULS) today announced that LG Displayā€™s organic light-emitting diode (OLED) televisions and monitors have achieved UL Solutions Eyesafe Verification, a global first, confirming the accuracy and reliability of LG Displayā€™s marketing claims that their OLED models effectively reduce circadian-stimulating blue light emissions.

ā€œUL Solutionsā€™ Marketing Claim Verification process is designed to give consumers confidence in product claims,ā€ said Todd Denison, senior vice president of Global Regions at UL Solutions. ā€œBy validating advertising and promotional statements, UL Solutions helps consumers distinguish between verified facts and unsubstantiated claims. This objective, science-driven assessment process that uses Eyesafe requirements is crucial in todayā€™s market, where consumers are increasingly concerned about the potential health effects of prolonged screen time.ā€

OLED televisions and monitors are distinguished by their self-emissive pixels, which means they do not require backlights. To achieve a Marketing Claim Verification, UL Solutions evaluated the performance of LG Displayā€™s OLED televisions and monitors using EyesafeĀ® Display Requirements 3.0, inclusive of Radiance Protection Factor (RPFĀ®) and Circadian Protection Factor (CPF) methodologies. Higher scores indicate less circadian-stimulating blue light, with 35 or higher needed to earn a Marketing Claim Verification. The RPF assessment confirmed that the television and monitors meet the Eyesafe criteria for blue light toxicity, color gamut and color temperature, earning them RPF40. Additionally, the televisions and monitors were verified for a CPF60 rating, demonstrating a reduction in blue light emissions.

Eyesafe requirements, used in conjunction with UL Solutionsā€™ Verification, are developed in concert with eye care professionals and scientists. They establish a baseline for blue light filtration and color performance. After Verification, brands can use the UL Eyesafe Verified Mark on their products, packaging and marketing collateral to communicate their achievement.

ā€œThis verification by an objective and reliable institution signifies that we have set a new standard for customers to choose human-friendly displays,ā€ said Soo-young Yoon, CTO and executive vice president of LG Display. He added, ā€œLG Display will continue to provide differentiated customer value through our relentless efforts and innovation.ā€
