Sustainability at the forefront as Electrolux presents future kitchen concept at EuroCucina
June 7, 2022
Electrolux is at Europe’s leading kitchen trade show EuroCucina this week to introduce GRO, a new future kitchen concept to inspire people to make healthier and more sustainable choices.

“By influencing how our products are used, we believe we can help reduce food waste, promote resource efficient food choices and nutrition, and enhance healthy and sustainable eating experiences,” says Tove Chevalley, Electrolux Head of Innovation Hub.

GRO is a groundbreaking sustainable eating system aimed at reinventing the kitchen and enabling people to enjoy food in a way that is sustainable for health and planet.

The kitchen concept is built on interconnected products and services with features reflecting the planetary health diet of the EAT-Lancet report.

During EuroCucina, which takes place in Milan, Italy from June 7-12, Electrolux will also present new product ranges such as innovative and sustainable refrigerators, which can preserve vitamins for up to 95 percent longer, help reduce food waste by up to 20 percent using precise electronic sensors, and keep food 60 percent juicier and more hydrated via a dual cooling system.

Two new extractor hobs will also be introduced. The 800 Bridge with eXTractor and the 800 FlexiBridge® with eXTractor have been designed to bring freedom to kitchen planning as people upgrade and make the cooking space more sociable. Using consumer insight to drive the design, the new hobs and integrated extractor fans provide flexibility to tailor kitchens without any restrictions.

“Our aim is to make healthy and sustainable eating desirable, accessible and easier. This year at EuroCucina we are showing new, best-in-class products and concepts that have taken years to develop. They have required us to rethink the ordinary and reengineer every last detail to deliver the extraordinary,” says Patrick Le Corre, Electrolux Senior Vice President, Product Line.

Gaggenau unveils the initiatives for the Milan Design Week

Gaggenau, the luxury brand for professional-grade home appliances, will showcase as part of Fuorisalone for the first time during Milan Design Week 2022. For the event, the company will take over the glass pavilion at Villa Necchi Campiglio and invite international architects, designers and kitchen professionals to experience its interactive ‘A Statement of Form’ installation from Tuesday 7th until Saturday 11th June. According to Gaggenau, visitors will be encouraged to network, build connections and share ideas whilst enjoying the comapany’s hospitality and a series of ground-breaking public and private talks, Q&As and social events throughout the week.

A Statement of Form is a bold departure from the brand’s previous EuroCucina offerings. It spans 360 sq feet, creating a structure that brings together the key elements of Gaggenau’s promise and purpose. Visitors will move through the installation on a guided tour and experience different sections that focus on Gaggenau’s key specialist areas, including cooking precision from raw ingredients to cuisine, balance and tension, heritage and craftsmanship through to progressive advancement, the importance of materiality, the relationship between cooling and heat, objet d’art within technical perfection, and the home as the entertaining space of the future.

«We are excited – said Peter Goetz, managing director of Gaggenau – to showcase our brand in the centre of Milan for the very first time, and look forward to welcoming architects, designers and kitchen professionals that we haven’t met in-person since the pandemic. ‘A Statement of Form’ juxtaposes competing elements that are required to make something exceptional. It brings together: tradition and avant-garde, grand masters crafting culinary art, and a conscientious maintenance of craftsmanship, through progressiveness and heritage. This space in Milan is a true expression of the uniqueness of Gaggenau

Haier show off at KBB

Haier recently showcased at The KBB Show at the NEC, Birmingham, dated 6-9th March and is proud to have the debut launch of one of its new built-in appliances – Series 6 : the complete range of premium  cooking appliances guided by Artificial Intelligence.  The launch saw the first ever collection of Haier built-in appliances onto the UK market, and further enhanced Haier’s excellent reputation for premium design, quality and reliability alongside connectivity and cutting-edge innovation.

The stand also hosted a live cooking event, including a special guest appearance from a well- known TV celebrity. To support our goal, we launched ‘Club Haier’ an exclusive retailer loyalty scheme offering preferential terms for displaying Haier retailers.

Also showcased was the hub of the kitchen of the future, the spectacular Chef@Home oven, which, thanks to a presence sensor, turns on automatically, giving the user access to the 19” full touch control screen. The journey to discover the innovative “Cook with me” technology, which is designed to bring Artificial Intelligence into everyday life: plus, the PreciTaste technology recognises the types of food placed inside the oven, so it automatically sets the cooking parameters, sending the user a notification when the food is ready.

Thanks to the premium technology, elegant and minimalist designs of range of ovens, hobs, hoods, refrigerators, and dishwashers that connect to the hOn App and AI offer tailor-made solutions for the modern home.

As well as showcasing the amazing innovative tech features across the new range of connected ovens, hobs & hoods, there was also an opportunity to witness hi-tech integrated and freestanding laundry and cooling appliances, where visitors were guided on a journey of discovery through a world designed to make the “Connected Home” a reality, thanks to Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things.

Haier brings AI to the kitchen – with Series 6

Haier has showcased its latest innovations in refrigeration, connected wine cellars and washing machines with the exclusive debut of Haier cooking – Series 6: a complete range of premium kitchen appliances guided by Artificial Intelligence.

The launch saw the first ever collection of Haier built-in appliances, and further enhances Haier’s reputation for premium design, quality and reliability alongside connectivity and cutting-edge innovation.

Haier explains that Series 6 incapsulates premium technology that comes together in a range of ovens, hobs, hoods, refrigerators, and dishwashers that use connectivity, the hOn App and AI to offer tailor-made solutions for the modern home, thanks also to their elegant and minimalist design.

The Chef@Home oven, which, thanks to a presence sensor, turns on automatically, giving the user access to the 19-inch full touch control screen. The innovative “Cook with me” technology is designed to bring Artificial Intelligence into everyday life. Furthermore, the PreciTaste technology recognises the types of food placed inside the oven, so it automatically sets the cooking parameters, sending the user a notification when the food is ready. 

Haier’s Series 6 oven features AI technology

Haier’s cooking range embodies the brand’s continuous efforts to offer premium products and high-tech solutions, clearly also visible in the induction hob range: thanks to the innovative PreciProbe Bluetooth temperature probe, which is also included in the Chef@Home oven. The induction hob maintains the temperature of the food, automatically choosing the correct power at every stage of cooking notifying the user when it is ready. 

Exclusive features of the Series 6 hob range also include Multi-zone technology, which – thanks to an advanced temperature detection system and optimised power management – can detect and manage the presence of different sized pots in the same area, ensuring maximum flexibility. 

Meanwhile, VaryCook technology allows users to increase and decrease the temperature of their hob with ease without touching the controls, simply by sliding pots and pans up and down, thanks to three power levels (high, medium and low), giving the possibility to cook food at varying temperatures during the cooking phases.

The range is completed by gas hobs, in which Haier offers models with the most powerful set of burners on the market, (5 Kw of power), and with the use of the innovative and exclusive PreciFlame technology, which makes it possible to adjust the intensity of the flame to perfection by offering nine different power levels.

Jim McEwan, Haier’s Chief Commercial Officer, said “Haier’s kitchen built-in range, characterised by perfect integration between technology, connectivity and tailor-made products. 

“Thanks to Artificial Intelligence and the hOn App, we offer our customers exclusive experiences connected to household appliances, which ranges from exclusive refrigeration solutions, innovative cooking options and reactive wine cellars. Haier is truly the number one brand in major Appliances, worldwide.
