For its 165th anniversary, Groupe Seb launches the Seb Discovery website
This is an extraordinary gift that Groupe Seb gave itself for its 165th anniversary. A website dedicated to the history of the group, which traces the entire saga of the French family business born in 1857.

Divided into 6 major periods and animated by two guides, the site plunges the Internet user into period decorations and invites him to discover the evolution of products, from the oldest to the most innovative. A family history that has made Seb a key player in the market for small household appliances for the general public, but also in the field of professional coffee
The Seb saga in 6 major periods
The invitation to travel began in 1857 in Burgundy, with the birth of the company then specializing in tinsmithing (making tinplate objects) and continued until 1951.
The 2nd part extends from 1952 to 1972, with the beginning of equipped kitchens and the rise of household equipment in homes, including the Super Cocotte Seb which was a hit at the time.
Then, from 1973 to 1990, Internet users discovered a new era for Seb, which became Groupe Seb, thanks to the acquisition of Tefal in 1968 and Calor in 1972.
From 1991 to 2000, the group opened up to emerging countries and developed several subsidiaries around the world with positions as local leaders in small household appliances, particularly in South America.
Then, a new era began in 2001 with the acquisition of Moulinex and continued until 2010, during which the group became the world leader in small household appliances.
The journey ends with the period 2010 to the present day, marked by the acquisition of WMF , a specialist in professional coffee, and by the opening of a new world headquarters in Ecully, the Campus Seb , which also hosts a world center of innovation.

Samsung &LG@CES2023
South Korea’s Samsung Electronics Co. and LG Electronics Inc. are set to showcase their high-end home appliances at the CES 2023, the world’s largest electronics exhibition to be held from Jan. 5 to Jan. 8 of the next year in Las Vegas.
Samsung Electronics will demonstrate products of Bespoke Infinite Line, a premium lineup of Bespoke, the tech giant’s kitchen appliance brand with customizable design. The company launched the premium lineup in Korea in February of this year.
Bespoke Infinite features durability and high-quality metal that makes a luxurious texture to the surface of the products. The lineup includes one-door refrigerators to store kimchi, wine and other food, four-door refrigerators of extra-large capacity, ovens, inductions, smart range hoods and dishwashers.
The tech giant will launch the premium lineup in the European market, including France, Germany and the UK, during the first quarter of 2023 and will also enter North America and Southeast Asia within the next year.
LG Electronics will emphasize minimalist aesthetics in its home appliances to be launched next year. The company will exhibit refrigerators, washing machines, clothes dryers, ranges and dishwashers with simple designs at the electronics show.During the next edition of CES (Las Vegas, January 5-8), LG will present the new InstaView™ French-Door refrigerator. The company’s new, 25.5-cubic feet counter-depth refrigerator offers a generous capacity, despite a nine percent reduction in depth compared to a conventional French-Door model. To increase internal storage space, LG redesigned several of the fridge’s core components – slimming-down the cold air duct and the evaporator, while also reducing thickness by applying enhanced insulation. Although its expansive interior provides 25 percent more room for storing food and drinks than LG’s previous counter-depth models, the new French-Door can still help to save space in the kitchen thanks to its smaller footprint.
LG’s new InstaView French-Door refrigerator – said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company – makes a superb, stylish addition to any modern kitchen, offering consumers the ultimate in convenience, design and food freshness. We will continue to deliver outstanding customer value and experiences with innovative home solutions leveraging elegant, functional design and our advanced technologies.
The new model is bordered in sleek stainless steel, while the mirror-coated glass of the seamless InstaView panel covers almost the entire right-hand door of the refrigerator. Just by knocking twice on the panel, users can check inside without having to open the door. The subtle, minimalist beauty and clean, modern lines of LG’s latest InstaView are further enhanced by the discrete pocket handles applied to the fridge’s ‘flat’ doors.

LG Developing Smart Home Appliances Using Sleep Analytics Technology
LG Electronics Inc. has teamed up with a local firm to develop smart home appliances that utilize sleep analytics technology.
The home appliance maker said Monday it has signed a memorandum of understanding with Asleep, a sleep tracking software startup, to work together in the field of sleep technology.
Asleep’s artificial intelligence (AI)-based technology can measure various sleep phases under any circumstances as long as there is a smartphone, a smart TV, a speaker, or any device with a microphone present.
“We plan to create a smart home appliance device that offers optimized services based on the customer’s personal sleeping status and patterns,” LG said.
If a customer is deemed to be asleep, for instance, the air purifier in the bedroom automatically transitions into sleep mode, and the air conditioner resets the temperature to cater to the optimal air conditions based on recent sleep records.
Asleep plans to display its products at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) next month and hold demonstrations of a smart bedroom environment complete with LG’s premium home appliances and sleep analytics technology
