Three new cooker hoods from Miele feature extraordinary design and excellent energy efficiency

“Aura 3.0”, “Triple” and “Pure”: Even their very names give an intimation that these cooker hoods do not belong to the mainstream. Rather, Miele is offering three design concepts as original as they are different – that also leave nothing to be desired in terms of performance, convenience and energy efficiency.

Aura 3.0 is designed for use above a cooking island. For the first time a Miele cooker hood has a completely round shape – which makes a visual impact just as elegant as it is surprising. The 70 cm diameter canopy in brilliant white conveys the impression of a shallow dome. The overall impression of filigree is underlined by a discreet three-part suspension bracket, the unobtrusive controls situated on the underside – and the apparent absence of an external power source. In fact the energy supply is integrated invisibly into the suspension bracket. The all-round dimmable LED ambient lighting provides an atmospheric glow – in addition to the LED hob lighting, that puts the hob activities in exactly the right level of light.

As a recirculation cooker hood the Aura 3.0 is also best suited to highly insulated buildings, in which the clean air is recirculated back into the room. First grease particles are removed by a ten-layer metal filter before the odour molecules are absorbed by the Longlife AirClean filter. The metal filters can be easily cleaned in the dishwasher as their stainless steel outer layers are permanently protected from discolouration.

The Aura 3.0 communicates with a Miele hob by means of Con@ctivity to automatically adjust extraction performance to what is happening down on the hob. The hood can also be controlled by the Miele@mobile app via smartphone or tablet. With its fan and LED lighting it achieves energy efficiency class A.

Puristic attraction in a premium kitchen

Miele is now extending its range of cooker hoods with the addition of a model with a particularly extravagant design. Three vaulted canopies made from safety glass, which appear to breezily levitate above each other, make Triple Black and Triple Grey an eye-catching feature in premium kitchens. Thanks to its compact dimensions, this hood also guarantees more headroom above the hob.

Miele is now set to cater more specifically for headroom with two new models, “Pure Black” and “Pure Grey”. Their simplified design with a slanting glass panel makes these hoods timelessly elegant focal points in prestigious kitchens. Both versions are available in widths of 80 and 90 cm and feature intuitive touch controls.

Both the Triple and the Pure hoods achieve the best energy-efficiency ratings. Both vented and recirculation mode is possible, the latter in combination with a highly effective active charcoal filter which the acting multiple test winner with the German consumer watchdog Stiftung Warentest also uses on its other models. These hoods also have the Con@ctivity feature. The aptly named models Triple Black/Triple Grey and Pure Black/Pure Grey as well as handleless ArtLine built-in units are available in obsidian black and graphite grey.

Gorenje, which is one of the largest Slovenian exporters and has market capitalisation of some 154 million euros (135.2 million pounds), said last year it was seeking a strategic partner to increase cost efficiency and strengthen the brand.

Bids were filed by Chinese household appliance makers Haier Hefei Meiling and Hinsense Electric

Schneidereit GmbH solutions allow customers a carefree experience by supporting the product throughout its lifetime. This enables customers to run their businesses without worrying about asset ownership or maintenance.

The acquisition enables Electrolux to develop its offering within the professional laundry business and supports the long-term profitable growth in Europe.

“Schneidereit adds a complementary business model to the Electrolux Professional offer, enabling us to help provide great experiences to an even wider customer base,” said Alberto Zanata, Head of Electrolux Professional. “We’re excited about the opportunity to leverage Schneidereit’s competence in developing the way we do business, exploring functional sales which is an interesting growth area in our industry.”

Net sales in 2016 amounted to around EUR 18 million (around SEK 175 million) and the company has approximately 110 employees throughout Germany.

The acquisition is expected to be completed during the first quarter of 2018 and is subject to regulatory approvals.

Miele is set to intensify its strategic cooperation with the Korean robotics specialist Yujin. The company is currently producing the jointly developed Scout robovac for Miele. The common goal of the two companies is furthermore to open up new applications in the field of robotics. To this end, Yujin is increasing its equity and, as part of this, the Miele Group is injecting capital to the tune of € 40 m.

Yujin Robot was founded in 1988 in the Korean capital Seoul. The company develops, produces and markets robotic products and components for use in households, businesses, logistics and further applications. Today, Yujin records an annual turnover of € 45 m with a workforce of around 150 and counts in Korea among the most experienced and innovative representatives of its branch. Miele is the world’s leading premium manufacturer of domestic appliances and commercial machines. In floor care, Miele is market leader in Europe with annual sales in excess of 2.5 m units.

The partnership between the two companies dates back to 2012 and the joint development of a robovac for domestic use. Meanwhile, the Miele Scout RX1 has very successfully established itself in the marketplace since 2014. The turn of the year will see the launch of its successor, the Scout RX2, with a three-fold increase in suction power, finer-tuned navigation and useful features such as the transmission of live images from the home to a tablet PC or smartphone. The Scout RX2, too, was jointly developed by the two partners and is produced by Yujin.

Miele’s increased stake in Yujin is an expression of both parties’ intention to sustainably intensify and expand their cooperation. This goes beyond the robovac segment which continues to experience strong growth. ‘Both with a view to the product range and automation of production as in Smart

Manufacturing, robotics is steadily increasing in significance at Miele’ says Dr. Stefan Breit, Miele Group board member responsible for technology, ‘that’s why we are so pleased at having found such a first-class partner in Yujin with whom to shape our joint future’. Collaboration with Dr. Kyung Chul Shin, second-generation CEO of Yujin, and his local management team is a ‘central element’ in this respect.

Conversely, Shin sees the Miele Group as a strong and reliable partner offering a stable equity structure whilst maintaining the autonomy of the company: ‘By pooling expertise and resources we are able to exploit huge opportunities in the development of new products and technologies and in tapping new markets’.
