LG Electronics (LG) is presenting its state-of-the-art kitchen and living appliance lineups at the 2023 Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS), taking place at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, from January 31 to February 2.

Under the theme of ‘Life on the UP,’ LG’s exhibit showcases the modern design and advanced technology of the company’s latest appliances while highlighting the personalized convenience they provide through the addition of ThinQ UP and ThinQ Care features – now available on LG’s premium built-in lineups for the very first time. Featuring eight unique zones, LG’s booth explores diverse consumer lifestyles and aesthetics with each zone representing a different, well-known American city, location or landmark, and each displaying a selection of new, cutting-edge LG appliances.

Visitors to KBIS 2023 can discover the latest premium kitchen solutions from luxury built-in brands, Signature Kitchen Suite and LG STUDIO, both of which offer the refined design and personalization options that today’s consumers want for their homes. The new Signature Kitchen Suite 48-inch built-in refrigerator comes in stainless steel or panel-ready option and boasts Signature Fit™ Integrated Design; enabling a seamless match with any interior décor and giving customers the choice of proud or flush installation.

Also on show at KBIS is LG’s new Signature Kitchen Suite 36-inch gas cooktop. The impressive appliance features five, powerful brass burners totaling 67,500 BTUs – including a 24,000-BTU* Ultra-High™ dual burner with a convertible wok grate – which is the most of any cooktop in the luxury kitchen category. Additionally, the new cooktop is available with an easy-to-clean porcelain-coated cooking surface, while the LG STUDIO kitchen package now offers customers an elegant, new handle color – rose gold – to choose from.

For hassle-free cleanup, the Signature Kitchen Suite’s PowerSteam® dishwasher can complete a full cycle in less than one hour thanks to LG’s QuadWash™ Pro and Dynamic Heat Dry™ technologies, the latter of which circulates hot air throughout the appliance’s interior. The sleek, stainless steel dishwasher, which has ‘hidden’ controls located on top of its door, uses TrueSteam® to help remove caked-on food and reduce water spots, while QuadWash Pro uses high-pressure jets of water to clean dishware from multiple angles.

LG is also exhibiting its personalized living solutions at this year’s show, with ThinQ UP appliances such as the latest washer and dryer pair, a new minimalism concept kitchen appliances lineup, and lastly, the new MoodUP™ by LG STUDIO – a fridge with color-changing door panels (23 colors available for the upper panel and 19 for the lower) that can be easily controlled via the LG ThinQ app. ThinQ UP, which enables users to continuously upgrade their appliances with additional features, will soon be coming to LG’s built-in appliances – including the Signature Kitchen Suite and LG STUDIO lineup – as will ThinQ Care features designed to help users protect and get the most out of their LG solutions.

What’s more, LG is presenting entertaining events at the show to allow visitors to experience its products and brand values first-hand. In the Las Vegas-themed zone of the company’s booth, Signature Kitchen Suite chefs, Nick Ritchie from Napa Valley and Austin Kang from Seoul, are giving cooking demonstrations using Signature Kitchen Suite appliances to prepare delectable treats for attendees. LG is also hosting an exclusive party in its booth’s New York-themed zone on the evening before KBIS 2023 opens. Along with music and a colorful LED lighting display provided by the customizable MoodUP™ by LG STUDIO, guests will be able to enjoy delicious desserts made using the ultra-convenient Scan to Cook feature on LG STUDIO cooking appliances.

“At KBIS 2023, we will introduce the exceptional, personalized experience offered by our ultra-premium built-in appliances and ThinQ UP,” said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company. “LG will continue to deliver smart, stylish kitchen and living solutions designed to enhance consumers’ homes and daily lives.”

Impressive comeback of the IFA in 202

Posted on by

Sustainability, connectivity and smart home solutions were the major themes at this year’s IFA Berlin – the proportion of trade visitors is growing – strong demand for digital access to the IFA

After a three-year break, the IFA in Berlin has made a strong comeback as the top global event for the consumer and home electronics industry. Despite the pandemic restrictions still in place, which continue to affect parts of Asia, exhibitors occupied more than 80 percent of the exhibition space on the Messe Berlin site. The exhibitors took the opportunity to finally get in touch with dealers, media and end consumers again.

IFA 2022 was also very well attended overall, especially given the ongoing travel restrictions in Asia. Over 161,000 people came to the IFA in Berlin over the five days of the fair. In the pre-pandemic comparison, the proportion of trade visitors was higher. Many exhibitors reported an unusually high number of business transactions during the fair.

The IFA again generated a strong media response: more than 2,500 journalists came to Berlin, around half of them representing international media organizations. Media monitoring has shown that IFA 2022 was reported on by publications and broadcasters in over 100 countries worldwide.

Positive feedback from global brands and retailers
Despite global challenges such as ongoing supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures, exhibitors at IFA 2022 saw a huge volume of orders.
dr Sara Warneke , Managing Director of gfu, explains: “After the break caused by the pandemic, the IFA has reported back impressively with the most important trends for products and solutions in the areas of consumer electronics and home appliances as well as related industries, especially in the field of sustainability. It was once again the proven meeting place for industry and trade, trade visitors and the media, and of course consumers.”

Martin Ecknig, CEO of Messe Berlin, says: “It’s fantastic that our halls were once again full. I’ve had very positive feedback from all the global brands and retailers I’ve spoken to, and I’m particularly pleased that we’ve had such a large number of insiders and trade visitors at IFA Berlin. We are well on the way to the IFA returning to its full strength in the next few years.”

Berlin’s Governing Mayor Franziska Giffeyis convinced: “The leading trade fair with its smart innovations and energy-efficient technologies is a motor for the economy and the markets worldwide. It is one of Berlin’s flagships, not only as a trade fair and congress, but also as the leading European hub for innovation and technology. The IFA 2022 is a kind of beacon, not least because after two difficult years it stands for an upswing.”

Sustainability in the focus of consumer and home electronics

In addition to the intelligent networking of devices and smart home solutions, sustainability was
one of the major topics at this year’s IFA in Berlin.

This was also reflected in some of the IFA keynotes: Hakan Bulgurlu,
Arçelik’s Chief Executive Officer, made a passionate appeal to the consumer and home electronics
industry to work together and do their part to mitigate climate change and
reduce pollution. Gwenaelle Avice-Huet,
Schneider Electric’s Chief Strategy and Sustainability Officer, delved further into how smart home
devices can make our homes more sustainable.
