AEG is raising the bar in kitchen innovation with the launch of its groundbreaking new dishwasher series—part of the brand’s most expansive appliance rollout to date.
Michael Geisler, Managing Director of AEG Germany, linked this latest milestone to the momentum built at last year’s successful IFA debut of the AEG kitchen range. That momentum has continued to grow, driven by standout achievements such as five Stiftung Warentest victories in laundry care and a steadily expanding product portfolio.
The new dishwasher line stands as a hallmark of AEG’s signature blend of performance, elegance, and sustainability. Engineered for low water usage, whisper-quiet operation, and versatile functionality, it meets the rising consumer demand for smart, efficient, and stylish home appliances. With its introduction, AEG completes its vision of the “kitchen of the future”—a comprehensive suite spanning ovens, hobs, extractor hoods, refrigerators, and now, dishwashers.
Catch the reveal of AEG’s latest innovations at IFA 2025, taking place 5–9 September, in Hall 4.1, Stand 101.
