CIH, the electrical buying group, which is part of Euronics, has launched a new campaign focusing on sustainability that will run throughout the year and form a foundation for the brand going forward.
The dramatic jump in energy prices in recent months is part of the rising cost of living for UK consumers who are also increasingly aware of climate change and the general health of the planet.
The Government has introduced extra legislation to ensure that the products that consumers purchase are as energy efficient as possible.
Euronics is well placed to offer advice on the right electrical appliances and how they can be used to best effect to minimise energy and water consumption
“There’s so much information out there on sustainability that it can be a little overwhelming,” said Steve Scogings, chairman of CIH.
“What sets Euronics apart is our agents. They are your local experts and are there to find the most energy efficient appliances to fit their lifestyle and help customers navigate a pathway to a more sustainable future.
“Our ‘Just Ask’ messaging encourages consumers to speak to their local agents and learn more about what can be done and which products will fit their lifestyle the best. We will be providing agents with all the information and collateral they need to support customers with these decisions.”
The aim of the sustainability campaign is to help consumers understand the technologies contribute towards sustainability, and how to use their appliances to maximise energy and water efficiency, as well as the recyclability and the lifecycle of individual solutions.
Euronics has a range of tools available to help consumers understand the latest technologies as well as guidance on legislation.
For instance, Youreko’s Energy Savings Tool will help people realise the benefits of buying an energy efficient appliance. There is support for laundry, dishwasherand refrigeration products.
The Euronics website provides an overview of some of the key technologies available in the latest products including sensor drying technology, auto dosing, heat pump technology and induction hobs. It also includes useful features such as a guide to the updated energy labels, making it clearer for people to understand when they are looking at individual products.

The Laifen Swift hairdryer features a typical vortex-style jet architecture with a brushless motor that spins at 110,000 RPM at airspeeds of 22m/s – more than six times the air pressure of traditional hairdryers.
To prevent severe heat, each heat setting is also thermo-controlled and checked 100 times every second.
The engine has a 1,000-hour life cycle and should last about 15 years, Laifen explains. This, according to the company, is four times the normal lifespan of a brush motor, which is around 250 hours.
The hairdryer includes clever heat controls, meaning the thermal sensor changes the temperature of the air it blows out 30 times per second to prevent overheating and damage to hair
Depending on the mode, an LED ring surrounds the outside of the hairdryer. Blue light indicates cool air, the orange light indicates warm air, and a red light indicates maximum heat, which is ideal for quick drying and styling.
The air filter is located on the handle of the hairdryer and is magnetically attached, making it extremely easy to remove fluff and dust. Because of its positioning and tiny air filter pores, this also prevents hair from being sucked into the hairdryer.
The handle has two buttons: one for turning it on and toggling between the two-speed settings, and the other for switching between cool, warm, and hot modes. A nozzle that magnetically mounts to the front of the hairdryer is included for more focused airflow.

From 6 to 12 June – Haier Europe is again in the spotlight of Milan Design Week 2022 with Home Switch Home,
an immersive experiential installation that is among the most significant event of Milan Tortona Design Week
“Home Switch Home” will narrate smart home designed by Haier Europe for three international brands Candy,
Hoover and Haier; the result of a continuous attention to technological innovation, artificial intelligence, and
design. Three ecosystems that are shaped around people’s lives, adjust to personal taste and anticipate the
needs and desires, where appliances and services come together to provide a cutting-edge home experience.
Technology, connectivity, and design merge to create innovative solutions designed around values and targets
of each specific brand.
The exhibition area of over 1000 sq.m. is divided into three different macro-areas, dedicated to Candy, Hoover,
and Haier. Every exhibition is a real pathway that starts from an immersive and emotional experience through
the different characters and values of each brand; it follows on with a touch&feel area that provides an actual
interaction with the products, the connected solutions and home scenarios; and it ends with a product
showcase of the latest innovations, with a special focus on built-in products.
The three pathways share the hOn app, the Group’s digital platform, which not only allows an integrated,
intuitive and dynamic management of connected appliances, but also the best streamlined exploitation of
their potential. By adding exclusive functions and services to products, home management enhances and gets
easier, while meeting users’ daily needs. An example of the hOn app digital ecosystem is that dedicated to the
world of wine, which provides a virtual wine cellar for all wine lovers.
“Milan Design Week is for us one of the most important time of the year to tell the general public and the
insiders about our diversified approach for Candy, Hoover, and Haier, the continuous research into innovation
and the bond we have with the design world” – stated Gianpiero Morbello Haier Europe’s Head of Brands &
IOT. – “With Home Switch Home we talk about a change in people, in their habits and homes, as well as the
resulting constant evolution of our three brands and solutions. This is also why we selected Looking Ahead of
Super Design Show 2022 as a thematic framework, and we made it our own with increasingly innovative, quality
and customized applications, where products and services come together in a connected ecosystem that
enhances and facilitates users’ daily experience”.
Haier: Connect To Extraordinary
Following on with the concept presented during last MDW, Haier – the global No. 1 brand in the large
household appliances sector* – focuses its attention again on the person, on visitors in this case, who become
active main character in the space and in a history that perfectly describes their likings and selections. This is
when Internet of beings, artificial intelligence and premium technology find their best expression, which
materialize corporate mission. The whole ecosystem of Haier appliances and connected solutions form the
concept of an interactive and engaging game of mirrors, lights, and sounds, a smart system that perceives the
presence of the person, follows their movements and is shaped around them to provide a tailor-made experience. The holographic and olfactory synaesthesia of Touch&Feel installation engages visitorsin a unique
pathway and provides them with the chance of playing as actors in several home scenarios and in the
fascinating world of the smart home, while being guided by the hOn app. This is also the case with the area
dedicated to the digital ecosystem for wine lovers, developed in synergy with different major partners of the
wine world, Vivino, Tannico, Coravin, Compravini, Sommelier Winebox and Cantine.Wine. The hOn app offers
the chance to all enthusiasts to manage their collection of wines through their smartphones, just by scanning
the bottle label. Visitors can enjoy the experience, create their own virtual wine cellar and discover the first
ecosystem dedicated to their passion. In the exhibition area, technological innovation, quality and refined
design along with customized solutions represent Haier’s soul. Among the main products, CUBE 90 Series, the
fridge that can manage the whole house ecosystem connecting to any Haier appliance in the house: from the
wine cooler Wine Bank 60 Series 7 to I-PRO Series 7 plus washing machine and Superdrum Series 9 washer
dryer, from WASHLENS Series 7 dishwasher to Chef@home Series 6 oven.
Candy: Simplify your Day
This interactive wall developed over three home scenarios, namely Cooking, Washing or Cooling, brings the
visitor to a multisensory environment to discover Candy’s democratic connectivity, an integrated smart
solution system that simplifies your daily life. Through the interaction between the connected products on
display and the hOn app you will be surrounded by the daily routine and see that connectivity is fully accessible
and easy to use for everyone. Great attention was given also to design, with a dedicated space for iCase: the
big innovation to be premiered in a collection of four unique items made in cooperation with four major young
artists: Joey Guidone, Elisabetta Vedovato, No Curves and Scombinato (Antonio Colomboni). Related to iCase,
there will be a contest for the IED (the European Institute of Design) students: the best work will join the four
artists for a capsule collection to be put on display in September at the IFA 2022 in Berlin. To confirm the
brand’s zero distance to consumer approach, the product will be in the spotlight for an interactive installation
that allows visitors to become creative designers and directly decorate their own fridges. Major innovations
stand out, including the new RapidÓ Pro washer and dryer, the new range of RapidÓ dishwashers and Fresco
fridges, the DiVino wine bottle cooler, and the new connected ovens and hobs, among the others.
Hoover: Quality for Life
The whole offers a full immersion in the performances and connectivity of Hoover products through
augmented reality, which highlight the connection of brand with design and technology, which to Hoover
means “Quality for life”: a home experience that puts performance at the service of wellbeing and turns
appliances into a reliable ally that enhances the quality of life. Among the main products, the new wireless HFree 900 vacuum cleaner, H-WASH 700 washing machine, the new range of H-DISH dishwashers, the new 5
collection (H-OVEN 500 Steam Plus, H-HOB 500, H-INDUCTION HOB, H-HOOD 500), and H-FRIDGE 700 fridge.
Participation in the Milan Design Week perfectly matches the corporate strategy aimed at strengthening its
leading role in the IoT and connectivity and Haier Europe’s vision of being the first choice of consumers in the
Smart Home context and among the top three appliance manufacturers in Europe.
Kuvings regularly showcases its innovative home appliances at global exhibitions, and will thus of course be back in Berlin for IFA 2022. The EVO 820 juicer, which can juice the whole fruit without cutting it, has been recognised as the Best Juicer at several global awards and has established itself as a signature model from Kuvings.
In 2022, Kuvings’ new model, the REVO 830, features upgraded convenience that goes one step further compared to existing products, making it easier to add ingredients and to make premium juice.Kuvings innovate with new feeding chute
The advantage of this Kuvings juicer is that the ingredients can be juiced whole without cutting them. The new model REVO 830 has two types of innovative feeding chutes. There is a 88mm flap gate for whole fruits, as well as a 45mm auto-cut gate for leafy vegetables, like carrots. This is a unique feeding chute from Kuvings that the company claims has never seen before. With these two feeding chutes, the user can quickly insert the right ingredient and juice it in no time.
Smart cutting technique
The REVO 830 juicer mechanism has been re-powered by Kuvings. The upper part of the screw features a smart cutting technique that automatically cuts long leafy vegetables with pinpoint accuracy. The new commercial-grade screw (auger) has a self-cutting top, so that when the user drops carrots, celery and cucumber into the feeding chute, the screw chops the ingredients before pressing.
Juicing fruits and vegetables without trimming the ingredients means that fresh juice can be made by minimising oxidation and browning that occurs when ingredients come into contact with air. The juicing technology, which only requires the user to add ingredients, upgrades the quality of juice as well as convenience for the user too.newly-designed, easy grip Smart Cap makes it easier for the user to mix juice in the bowl, stop drips and you can evenImproved motor durability and strong juicing power
The motor is the most important part of the juicer in terms of juice extraction performance. Kuvings explains that the REVO 830 is equipped with a motor that boasts stronger power than existing products to demonstrate the better juice performance. The durable motor guarantees long-lasting use, and its quietness means users can comfortably juice day or night.
REVO 830 receives awards and praise for its innovative design
The REVO 830 has already been honoured in 2022. The device was recognised at the German Kitchen Innovation Awards, appearing in the small electrical appliances category. The juicer was recognised for excellence in the four areas of functionality, design, various product advantages, and ergonomic design. Kuvings has said that this has strengthened its position as a global brand.
Researching the next big innovation
Every year, Kuvings introduces innovative products to help create a new health culture. The company is also investing heavily in research and development, principally to develop its own technology. We look forward to the future of Kuvings that innovates by developing outstanding technologies to enter the global market. close the cap and do a pre-rinse with water, before cleaning. Even the juicer’s jugs are easy to grip and even easier to store, newly-designed, square and fitting neatly inside each other for easy storage. There is also a wider pulp outlet, which offers maximum pulp ejection capability, making it easier to clean and to ensure the juice and pulp flows effortlessly.
