Sauberair launches innovative air purifier disguised as a “work of art”

Measuring an ultra-thin 3.5 inches, the Suberair FLAT can remove 99.9% harmful smoke and particles, eliminating a wide range of pollutants with minimum power consumption, the company says. It also boasts an extended filter lifespan compared to conventional purifiers.

The application has built-in smart sensors to detect and monitor the indoor air quality, humidity and temperature, while users can check and modify the filtering mode on the app anytime, and from anywhere.

As well as purifying the air, the FLAT BT features an integrated Bluetooth speaker which has been optimised for maximum sound quality. Users can play music with these built-in stereo speakers or it can serve as a music wake-up alarm.

According to the brand, FLAT is also the world’s first scalable purifier – meaning that two can be connected together and controlled simultaneously. In addition, its appearance can be changed according to customers’ preferences so that it better suits their home’s interior design, Sauberair says.

Why buy a FLAT air purifier?
World Health Organization data has shown that almost the entire global population (99%) breathe air which exceeds the international organisation’s guidelines for pollutants. This is not only happening in low- and middle-income countries, but also in the cities of developed nations. Air pollution is responsible for an estimated 7.4 million deaths every year, Sauber points out.

Problems with the air purifiers on the market
The business model of traditional air purifiers is ultimately built around selling filters, not the appliances themselves. Moreover, the filters’ lifespan is usually relatively short with replacement alerts based on the usage time, not the actual filter clogging rate. This is unscientific, the company says. Also, expensive filters dissuade consumers from replacing it when their time is up, which ultimately reduces its overall filtration effectiveness.

With its unique design, FLAT is much more efficient and effective than other models, identifying airflow passing through the filter, and alerting the user to when the filter should be changed, says Sauber.

Finally, FLAT has obtained invention patents in many countries and won The Made-in-Taiwan Golden Select Award, presented by the Taiwan Industry Development Bureau, Ministry of Economic Affairs, with the highest score from the jury.

Full-year assumptions revised:
Overall stable 2022 sales vs 2021
Operating margin from activity in the range of 8% to 8.5%
* LFL: like-for-like (at constant exchange rates and scope) – Changes vs 2021.
2022 started in a favorable environment, which deteriorated in the second quarter, with the war ongoing in Ukraine, currency volatility and the acceleration in inflation.
Sales were resilient, driven by an excellent performance in China and by the solid momentum in the Professional business. As in 2021, the Group absorbs the impact of headwinds while the operating profitability is temporarily hit by the combined effect of the slowdown in second-quarter business in Europe and the continuation of investments already undertaken.
We keep on fueling our growth pillars: China, where we will exceed €2bn revenue this year, with great development prospects ahead; the Professional activity which is paving the way for new buoyant and profitable markets; innovation and digitization, which represent fundamentals in our businesses.
We do not expect any significant improvement in the economic situation before year-end in mature countries. This leads us to target for the full year overall stable sales and an operating margin in the range of 8% to 8.5%.
I know I can count on the commitment and agility of our teams throughout the world to pursue our strategy of profitable growth.
Stanislas DE GRAMONT, Chief Executive Officer of Groupe SEB

Grundig built-in microplastic filter to washing machines

Grundig expanding its sustainable product range, offering a solution to avoid microplastics in the water: the world’s first washing machines with built-in microplastic filter. The new technology filters up to 90% of textile microfibres from the washing water before they enter the wastewater and pollute the environment.With every wash, clothing and textiles release up to 3,000 fibres that reach our rivers, lakes and seas via wastewater. There, the microfibres are taken up by fish and other marine creatures, entering the food chain and ending up on our plates.

Grundig wants to stop this pollution cycle and brings the first washing machines with an integrated microplastic filter.

The first Grundig washing machines available with built-in microplastic filter technology are the models GW7P79419W for 9kg laundry and the 10kg model, GW7P510419W. The filter is located in the detergent compartment and is automatically activated in the Easy Care, Shirts and Outdoor/ Sport programmes. Several times during the washing cycle, the water is passed through the microplastic filter before it is pumped into the wastewater. Up to 90% of the synthetic microfibers are collected from the washing water inside the filter.

Appliances in the world

According to the calculations by Statista agency, in 2021 the household appliances, big and small, for a total value of 448 billion dollars, were sold in the world. 74% of the amount comes from big appliances, 26% from small ones. The cooking sector represents 38% of the total, followed by the cold one with 22%; 17% goes to washing, whereas the remaining 23% is subdivided among all other appliances.
