Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (005930) displayed new washing machines at Berlin's IFA consumer electronics exhibition, Dailian reported Saturday. LG ELECTRONICS INC. (066570) also presented washers with electricity use up to 70% below the European A-rating threshold.
Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. said its 10kg Bespoke AI washer uses up to 70% less electricity than that threshold. The comparison measures additional savings against the minimum requirements for Europe's highest appliance energy rating.
The A-minus labels describe manufacturers' comparisons with that threshold rather than separate official European energy grades. The company's market capitalisation was ₩1,493.7 trillion at Friday's close.
