Solar Panel Refrigerator

Today in Africa, only 37.4% of the population has access to electricity.

In Sub-Saharan Africa, 609 million people (6 out of 10) and in South Asia, 343 million people do not have access to electricity. While nearly 1 billion people in Sub-Saharan Africa alone may gain electricity access by 2040, an estimated 530 million will still not have electricity access due to population growth.

This scenario has triggered Arçelik to develop an off-grid refrigerator that runs on solar. This low-carbon solution has proven successful in producing economic and essential benefits.

AutoDosing Technology 

Europe’s first household dishwasher with a liquid detergent

Beko’s AutoDosing Technology delivers the optimum detergent dosage, determined by programme selection and dirt-level measurement for both liquid and gel detergent for up to one whole month.

Consumers can load and run their dishwashing programmes with ease and comfort, with no need to load detergent for up to one month. In addition, thanks to the dosing technology used, there will be no risk of any detergent remaining in the machine during shorter programmes.

FreshMeter®

Every year across the globe, 1.3 billion tonnes of edible food is thrown away.

Designed to help change this, Grundig’s New Multi Door refrigerator delivers stunning, sleek design and 490 litres of storage space for the eco-friendly home. Grundig’s innovative cooling technology helps keep food fresh up to three times longer than standard refrigerators, which preserves vitamins in vegetables.

Raw meat is one of the most important types of food to keep fresh, so it is vital that consumers use it as quickly as possible to ensure that meals are safe to eat and avoid waste. Grundig’s Multi Door range features a custom compartment for raw meat that monitors the lifecycle of fresh meat. Inside this compartment, FreshMeter® technology detects the odour level present to assess the freshness of the meat inside, then displays the condition of the food via an LED indicator: blue (analyzing), green (fresh), yellow (going off) or red (dispose).

PET Tub

We focus on the plastic crisis, one of the biggest global issues, and concentrate all our efforts and R&D on this area.

The PET Tub designed by Grundig for washing machines and washer-dryers, is produced wih recycled PET bottles and thus, saves energy by reducing plastic waste. We continue our efforts to fight against the global plastic crisis by using approximately 11.4 million only in 2019, and a total of 30 million recycled PET bottles in our production of washing machine and washer-dryer tubs.

The Leopet plastic raw material, obtained from recycled PET bottles, developed by Arçelik’s R&D Center and patented by Arçelik is also used in air conditioners produced by Arçelik-LG. Of the plastic parts in all split air conditioners produced by Arçelik brands, 20% are made of recycled PET bottles and up to 15 recycled PET bottles are used in each air conditioner. By the end of 2019, 300,000 recycled PET bottles are used in 30,000 air conditioners.

Recycled Vacuum Cleaner

Since 2014, Grundig’s parent company, Arcelik, has ran a campaign that recycles consumer’s used home appliances at designated recycling centres.

Using innovative processes, the plastic materials found in these second-hand appliances are removed and are given a second life in Grundig’s Bodyguard Bagged Vacuum Cleaner. 90 per cent of the plastic materials used to produce the vacuum cleaner are materials from WEEE facilities of Arçelik.

This eco-friendly product is the first of its kind and is a major step towards global efforts to recycle petroleum-based plastics and reduce the volume of material sent to landfill.
