Hisense Europe, manufacturer of household appliances under the Hisense and Gorenje brands, received the EcoVadis silver medal. This recognized international business assessment, which ranks us higher than 83% of all assessed companies according to the assessment result, confirms our commitment to sustainable business practices and is proof of the company’s continuous efforts to reduce the impact on the planet and promote social responsibility.
By 2024, our packaging will be 100% recyclable
At Hisense Europe, sustainable operation is one of our core values, on the basis of which we have set ambitious sustainability goals focused on five key areas: environment, sustainable products, sustainable supply chain, people and social responsibility, and new business models. These goals include reducing energy consumption by optimizing renewable energy, increasing the use of recycled materials in products, reducing waste, promoting sustainable transport and strengthening the sustainability of the supply chain.

The company’s focus on sustainability is evident in its efforts to recycle 96% of generated waste, use 100% recyclable packaging by 2024, and reduce CO2emissions from transportation. The prestigious EcoVadis silver medal shows that Hisense Europe has developed the right strategy to increase the sustainability of its business models.


Significant progress over the past five years
A company must address all stages of production to minimize its carbon footprint, including energy consumption during production, materials used in products and their lifespan, and packaging and transportation processes. In these areas, Hisense Europe has made significant progress over the past five years, with a 38% reduction in water consumption and a 24% reduction in electricity consumption.

Made in Europe, Hisense and Gorenje household appliances are made from excellent, environmentally sound and degradable materials and undergo rigorous testing to extend their lifespan. Another important aspect is the availability of spare parts and easy product servicing.

Investing in the personal and professional growth of employees is one of the priorities
The EcoVadis sustainability evaluation process covers not only the environmental, but also the social and ethical performance of companies. Hisense Europe with the Hisense and Gorenje brands received silver for its commitment to promoting ethical business practices, such as creating equal opportunities for all and establishing a culture of knowledge sharing.
Investing in the personal and professional business growth of employees is one of the key priorities, which is also reflected in education and training, for which we allocated more than 136,000 hours in 2021, or 20 hours per employee. One of our goals is also to promote a healthy work-life balance and an active lifestyle.

Receiving the EcoVadis medal proves that Hisense Europe is moving in the right direction – that our products and operations are becoming as sustainable as possible. “Sustainability is at the heart of our values and we will continue to strive to reduce our impact on the environment and, as one of the key economic entities in the region, the country and beyond, to promote social responsibility. This certification is a great achievement and we are proud to be part of the EcoVadis community and to rank so highly in the ranking of evaluated companies,” said Hanson Han, CEO of Hisense Europe.”

In the field of environmental care, we have a rich environmental history that goes back more than thirty years, and our efforts in this field are recognized by experts both at home and abroad,” says Tomaž Korošec, a member of the Hisense Europe management board. “Our investments in renewable energy sources, our focus on product sustainability and efficiency, and our implementation of circular economy principles have proven to be the right approach. We are honored to receive the EcoVadis Silver Medal as it represents our belief that companies with a consistent commitment to social and environmental responsibility .

China’s Hisense becomes Slovenia’s largest exporter

Posted on by

The production lines have been busy at the Hisense factory in the town of Velenje in northeast Slovenia, as the demand for its household appliances steadily grows in Europe.

Hisense, a Chinese multinational major appliance and electronics manufacturer, holds a five percent share of the European market, but the company has set itself higher goals for the near future.Europe is a big market with a lot of potential,” Jianmin Han, the Chairman of Hisense Europe, tells CGTN. “Our target in three years, by 2025, is to achieve 10 percent of the market [share] in two segments, to really become a tier two brand in Europe.”

The Chinese home appliance giant established itself as Slovenia’s largest exporter, significantly surpassing the country’s other major exporters like Renault and a couple of local domestic pharmaceutical companies.

Not many expected these results in 2018, when Hisense acquired Slovenian producer Gorenje. Founded over 70 years ago in the former Yugoslavia, Gorenje produced and exported home appliances across Europe.

But five years ago, stiff competition forced the Slovenian government and the Gorenje shareholders to decide whether to integrate it into a bigger system or let it embark on a path of slow and inevitable demise.

They decided to invite China’s Hisense to buy Gorenje, in a bid to give the company and the community, a new lease of lifeIn 2021, its exports reached $2 billion, and even higher numbers are expected for 2022.

Hisense has secured thousands of jobs in Slovenia,

Hisense new washer range

Posted on by

Hisense bhas launched new models of washing machines from the PureStream line. With the focus on shortening washing cycles, specific programs and energy efficiency, most of the models have the A energy rating.

The new Hisense washing machines have been manufactured following the highest washing and hygiene standards. Designed for large families and with a minimum load of 7 kg, a wide range of programs and functions. The most prominent is the quick wash, which shortens the wash time of any of the programs. The Power Wash program, designed for a light load of not heavily soiled clothes, lasts less than an hour, but activating the quick wash only lasts 32 minutes.

Another interesting feature is the steam function, which eliminates up to 99.9% of bacteria. Available in a selection of Hisense washing machines, this program washes clothes at 60º and, after the wash cycle, completes the cleaning with 20 minutes of steam. These washers soften clothes and leave them wrinkle free. Some models include an Anti-Crease function.

Different programs for different fabrics

Hisense has paid special attention to creating specific programs for each type of fabric, such as jeans, wool, down, baby and pet clothes. Other programs have been improved and updated, such as wool, perfect for wool, silk and other delicate fabrics.

All models incorporate the Pause and Add function, which allows you to stop the cycle and add or remove garments from the drum. Thanks to Inverter technology, these washing machines are quiet and highly efficient, while offering better results and saving energy.
