Innovative Appliances Leverage Company’s Industry-leading Technologies to
Deliver Exceptional Efficiency and Convenient Customer Experiences
SEOUL, Feb. 19, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is presenting its state-of-the-art laundry solutions at the 2025 Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS). The new models leverage LG’s industry-leading inverter heat pump and AI technologies, delivering enhanced efficiency and a host of convenient energy- and time-saving features. Embodying LG’s Zero Labor Home vision and customized for the North American market, the latest lineup offers an extensive range of options to meet customers’ diverse needs.
LG’s washer and dryer, powered by LG’s energy-efficient dual inverter heat pump, will be displayed in the Zero Venting zone of LG’s booth at KBIS. Featuring an innovative ventless design, these laundry solutions are easier to install than conventional vented models and optimize space utilization, making them easier to install. In addition, LG’s laundry solutions employ Artificial Intelligence Direct Drive (AI DD) technology that offers sophisticated clothing care with a simpler user experience, analyzing load weight and fabric type to automatically apply the optimal washing and drying motions to achieve the best results.
LG will also showcase the SIGNATURE 29-inch laundry solution lineup, including a washer and dryer pair and the impressive WashTower. The new washer and dryer feature a sleek, luxurious design and boast the largest capacities in their categories – 5.8 cubic feet for the washer and 9.0 cubic feet for the dryer. To increase capacity without occupying additional floor space, LG’s mini wash and pedestal can be installed directly beneath the washer and dryer. The new LG SIGNATURE washer and WashTower both deliver exceptional performance and efficiency with advanced AI Wash and TurboWash 360° features, enabling users to complete more laundry in less time, leading to zero inefficiency in daily chores.
In the Zero Gas zone, visitors can explore the benefits of LG’s latest heat pump-equipped laundry solutions. Unlike conventional gas-vented dryers, LG’s heat pump dryers use a closed-loop system that recirculates air within the drum. This innovative system not only facilitates effective low-temperature drying but also helps reduce fabric damage, boost efficiency and contribute to lowering the carbon footprint, setting a new benchmark for sustainable laundry care. Also on display in the zone is the 27-inch LG WashCombo. This all-in-one washer and dryer combines an inverter heat pump with a ventless design and a space-saving configuration. The WashCombo, when paired with LG’s diverse laundry solutions, provides a seamless and stylish laundry setup for any household environment.
For added convenience, all of LG’s new laundry solutions can be remotely controlled and monitored via the intuitive ThinQ app. The app also lets users track their LG appliances’ energy consumption and offers access to ThinQ Care, which helps prevent costly and inconvenient service visits by alerting users to potential issues before they occur.
“LG will continue to leverage its advanced heat pump technology to strengthen its leadership in the North American premium home appliance market,” said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of the LG Home Appliance Solution Company. “The new laundry solutions we’re displaying at KBIS 2025 illustrate our progress in, and commitment to, realizing the Zero Labor Home vision.”
Visitors to KBIS 2025 can experience the new LG laundry solutions firsthand at the company’s booth (West Hall #2417, Las Vegas Convention Center).

New Product Leverages Company’s Innovative Technologies and Design Prowess to
Offer an Effortlessly Elevated Kitchen Experience
SEOUL, Feb. 18, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is set to showcase its “Fit & Max” kitchen solution at the 2025 Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Las Vegas, offering a design that seamlessly fits into spaces while maximizing both capacity and performance. Boasting Zero Clearance technology, the company’s cutting-edge kitchen appliances are an ideal fit for any kitchen.
The expanded lineup includes three-door and four-door refrigerators with Zero Clearance – a technology that minimizes wasted space, provides impressive installation flexibility and helps homeowners achieve a stylish built-in kitchen aesthetic. Thanks to cleverly-designed hinges, the main compartment doors can open fully with only 4 millimeters of clearance between the side of the appliance and the surrounding cabinetry or adjacent wall.
The new models also leverage the company’s proprietary Thin Door technology, which adds to the visual appeal of the new refrigerators and further contributes to optimal space efficiency in the kitchen. 100 millimeters-thick on previous models, the doors have been slimmed down to just 55 millimeters, delivering a sleek and sophisticated appearance without sacrificing insulation performance.
Moreover, LG’s new lineup provides a generous capacity, ensuring ample space for storing food items, beverages and ingredients. The newly designed middle- and freezer-drawers offer enhanced accessibility and easier, more convenient organization. The new, premium LG refrigerators also on show at KBIS 2025, feature Dual Ice Solution and Mini Craft Ice, allowing users to elevate their favorite drinks, chill refreshments for a party, or quickly cool a hot soup or broth with freshly-made ice.
In addition to refrigerators, LG expands its product lineup with a wider range of “Fit” offerings, combining space-efficient design with enhanced performance in various appliances. Another standout from the LG kitchen solution lineup is the new Flush Depth dishwasher, which fits perfectly with standard-depth cabinetry for a seamless and streamlined look. The new dishwasher incorporates advanced cleaning and drying technologies, including QuadWash Pro and Dynamic Heat Dry, to deliver industry-leading performance and enable the 1 Hour Wash & Dry cycle. LG’s QuadWash Pro technology creates microbubbles that thoroughly remove stains from dishware, while Dynamic Heat Dry utilizes a dry boost function to enhance drying performance. Drying effectiveness is further increased by the company’s AutoVentDry function, which automatically opens the dishwasher door after the completion of a cycle.
“An ideal fit for today’s kitchen and lifestyle, LG’s expanded Zero Clearance lineup presents next-level user experiences through advanced innovation and thoughtful design,” said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of the LG Home Appliance Solution Company. “We will continue to introduce appliances that offer customers the best of performance, style and convenience for a truly differentiated kitchen experience.”
Visitors to KBIS 2025 from February 25-27 can experience all the latest LG kitchen innovations, including the new kitchen solutions, at the company’s booth (West Hall #W2417, Las Vegas Convention Center).

Decarbonization and electrification have emerged as defining trends in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) sector’s efforts to help combat climate change. In response to the growing call for energy solutions that prioritize both efficiency and sustainability, LG has established the ES Company, a new business division that leverages LG’s HVAC expertise to deliver innovative solutions for a better future.
The ES Company boasts a comprehensive portfolio of HVAC solutions that align with current market trends such as decarbonization and electrification. These include versatile residential air conditioners for various types of housing, commercial air conditioners for buildings, schools and public institutions, and heating solutions that serve as efficient alternatives to traditional fossil fuel boilers. Employing LG’s high-performance core technologies, the ES Company provides the efficiency, reliability and flexibility that today’s customers demand.
The Company’s product portfolio also encompasses chillers based on state-of-the-art magnetic bearing technology. These chillers, known for their performance, precision and adaptability, are increasingly regarded as the optimal class of cooling solution for AI data centers. To meet the rising demand for advanced thermal management in this fast-growing IT segment, LG has partnered with a leading global technology company to build next-generation, sustainable AI infrastructure.
LG recently showcased its latest chillers at AHR Expo 2025, an international HVAC tradeshow held in Florida. Among the innovations on display were the Oil-Free Inverter Centrifugal Chiller, which highlights the company’s sophisticated thermal management technologies, and the new LG Centrifugal Chiller, which utilizes active magnetic bearings to improve efficiency through the inverter system.
Proactively addressing the region-specific HVAC needs of different markets, LG has established a consortium dedicated to R&D for cold-climate heat pumps. The consortium now operates facilities in locations known for harsh winter conditions, such as Alaska (U.S.), Oslo (Norway) and Harbin (China). This focus on creating localized solutions demonstrates LG’s commitment to providing consistent performance and reliability to all customers, regardless of their location.
In September 2024, LG hosted the first-ever meeting of the Global Heat Pump Consortium in Seoul, South Korea. The event brought together LG’s HVAC experts and academic partners to discuss collaborative projects driven by the consortium’s regional clusters. The gathering marked a significant step toward the realization of a new generation of innovative heating solutions.
LG’s latest heat pump technology underscores the company’s commitment to decarbonization and electrification. At the 2025 AHR Expo, the LG Residential Cold Climate Heat Pump earned an Innovation Award in the Sustainable Solutions category for its outstanding performance. This advanced heat pump operates effectively at temperatures as low as negative 35 degrees Celsius (negative 31 degrees Fahrenheit), maintaining full heating capacity at negative 25 degrees Celsius (negative 13 degrees Fahrenheit), and 70 percent capacity at negative 35 degrees Celsius (negative 31 degrees Fahrenheit). This impressive solution will launch* in the U.S. in February and in Europe in the second half of the year.
LG’s competitive advantage in the HVAC sector is significantly bolstered by the success of its components business. Through the in-house development of essential components, such as compressors and motors, LG is able to ensure the quality, performance and reliability of its diverse HVAC offerings. The company’s expanded lineup of Inverter Scroll Compressors, for example, incorporates LG-designed-and-made high-capacity, high-efficiency twin rotary inverter compressors. These solutions, available in variants tailored for the commercial HVAC and residential air conditioning markets, use R32 refrigerant, which has a low Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 675.
From residential water heaters to commercial chillers and everything in between, LG’s products showcase the versatility, innovation and dependability that have made the company one of the most trusted names in HVAC.
As a forward-looking organization and a responsible corporate citizen, LG remains unwavering in its mission to lead the global transition to decarbonization and electrification. Through the establishment of the ES Company, the development of groundbreaking heat pump technology and a strong focus on innovative, high-quality components and core-tech, LG is actively shaping the HVAC industry and paving the way to a more sustainable future.

Last year, LG Vietnam made waves in the gaming scene by introducing the Life’s Good Tournament, which was the first and only local area network (LAN) party gaming tournament in Vietnam. This premier League of Legends (LoL) competition in Vietnam attracts talented teams from across the nation, who compete through several qualifying rounds to reach the grand final held at Another Saigon by LG, brand experience space in Ho Chi Minh City.

These cybernets are fully equipped with LG UltraGear gaming monitors, which provide the ultimate gaming experience with brilliant OLED displays.
The grand final was graced by legends of the local eSports scene, including SOFM, Đức Mạnh, Clear and KillerQueen, who provided professional mentorship to the four teams. They shared their practical skills and inspired a competitive spirit in each competitor. After some of the most intense battles in the nation’s gaming history, GENETIC ESPORT emerged as the champion of the Life’s Good 2024 Tournament, followed by runners-up HST and third-place finishers 2 GAME ĐI VỀ and ALPHA MALE.
“This is our second time participating in the Life’s Good Tournament and our team came with a solid plan to conquer the country’s best LoL teams,” said a player of GENETIC ESPORT. “Our outstanding performance in the final was inspired by our mentor, KillerQueen. We are extremely grateful to LG for creating a professional platform that allows us to compete with other talented teams while unlocking the full potential of our passionate eSports community in Vietnam.”
This convincing victory was the result of tireless preparation and effort, earning the GENETIC ESPORT team a trip to Korea in December 2024. They have explored the heart of competitive League of Legends, visiting iconic locations such as LCK Park, the Gen.G Headquarters and LG GROUND220. The team also received a 45-inch UltraGear OLED Curved Gaming Monitor WQHD and vouchers worth 50 million VND.
