LG Unveils AI-Powered Washer with Advanced Fabric Care

Set to debut at IFA next month, LG Electronics is gearing up to showcase its latest washing machine—a true marvel of technology. The star of the show? The AI Direct Drive 2.0 technology, which promises to revolutionize laundry care.

So, what’s the buzz about AI Direct Drive 2.0? Let’s dive in:

  1. Intelligent Fabric Care: LG’s Smart Washing Machines equipped with AI DD can automatically determine the best settings based on the weight and softness of your fabrics. No more guesswork—just optimal wash cycles tailored to your laundry.
  2. Quiet and Efficient: Unlike traditional washing machines that rely on belts and pulleys, LG’s Direct Drive motor is directly connected to the drum. This design minimizes noise, reduces vibration, and enhances durability. Plus, it’s energy-efficient!
  3. Adaptable to Various Loads: Thanks to deep learning algorithms, the AI DD system adapts to different fabric types and load sizes. Whether you’re washing delicate silks or heavy denim, it’s got you covered.
  4. Detects Load Details: When you start a cycle, sensors detect the weight and fabric type of the load. The AI algorithm then selects the perfect combination of drum movements, water levels, and washing time for optimal cleaning performance while being gentle on your clothes.

In a nutshell, LG’s AI Direct Drive 2.0 aims to reduce fabric damage by 10%, ensuring your favorite outfits last longer. Laundry day just got smarter!

New Electrolux Group study shows short wash and low temperature key to reducing environmental footprint of clothes

Extending clothing life presents the single largest opportunity to reduce the carbon, water and waste footprints of clothes. Published recently by Electrolux The Truth About Laundry Report are the findings of our seven-year, science-led research program focused on extended clothing life which shows that choosing lower temperatures and shorter cycles can length the lifespan of clothes by more than 50%.

For example, a cotton T-shirt washed at 30°C for 59 minutes will last over 50% longer than if it’s washed on a regular 40°C cycle which can last up to 120 minutes, if not longer.

Electrolux launches smart laundry rang

Electrolux brand is launching its smartest range of laundry appliances in Europe.

Features include:

▪  The new SmartSelect function available on selected washing machines, washer dryers and tumble dryers which adjusts the washing/drying cycle and temperature based on needs, saving time and energy.
 
▪  The new SmartSave function in the 900 series tumble dryers gives consumers the choice between faster drying time or lower energy consumption.

▪  Low wash temperatures and short cycles are also in demand. Consumers can now run a 30 degree cycle, UltraQuick, in 39 minutes in selected washing machines in the 900 series.

“In 2020, textile consumption in Europe had on average the fourth highest impact on the environment,” comments sarah schaefer, Vice President Sustainability for Europe and APMEA at Electrolux Group. “Extending clothing life by just nine months delivers significant benefits but we want to help consumers go further. We have a goal to double the lifetime of clothes and our new range of smart and effortless appliances is a positive step towards that.” 

Electrolux Launch a Microplastic Filter Launch a Microplastic Filter 

According to our consumer study into microplastics and laundry**, part of the problem is a lack of understanding of what ‘synthetic’ means, with 94% of all adults not knowing how much plastic is in clothes. Our study found 68% of European adults were unaware that Nylon is a plastic fiber while 62% did not know Polyester, the world’s commonly used fiber, is plastic.

With the launch of the Microplastic Filter, we can help consumers reduce their own environmental impact when it comes to clothing care. We estimate that the new filter for washing machines can help prevent up to two plastic bags worth of microplastic fibers from being released from laundry, per household, every year. The filter, designed to fit on the laundry wall and made from 50% recycled plastic, works with both Electrolux and AEG washing machines.

Together we are set to revolutionize laundry practices globally, paving the way for a more equitable and prosperous future for hundreds of thousands of people Divya Washing Machine Impact

At the initiative’s core is the Divya Washing Machine, the world’s first flat packable manual washing machine that allows users to wash their clothes without electricity or a connected water source. Its simple design reduces the need for prolonged physical effort usually required to hand wash clothes, replaced instead with a simple manual machine that can be used frequently and safely, saving the user up to 76% of the time compared to hand washing clothes.

As a portable unit, built with commercial-grade components and stainless-steel construction, the machine is easier to be fixed remotely and has the potential to be recycled at the end of its life.
