SEOUL, Nov. 7, 2024 — LG Electronics (LG) is showcasing its PROFESSIONAL LAUNDRY lineup at Texcare International 2024, a global B2B laundry and textile care exhibition, held in Frankfurt, Germany, from November 6-9. Prioritizing energy efficiency, the new lineup features a variety of large-capacity solutions, including 30-kilogram washers and dryers, as well as a washer-dryer combo with heat pump, offering a maximum capacity of 25 kilograms for washing and 16 kilograms for drying. With the launch of its PROFESSIONAL LAUNDRY lineup, LG aims to strengthen its position in the commercial laundry market, both in Europe and worldwide.

LG’s comprehensive range of large-capacity commercial washers and dryers provides several outstanding options for customers to choose from. The new PROFESSIONAL LAUNDRY lineup features 20-, 25- and 30-kilogram washers, as well as 25- and 30-kilogram dryers, along with a 25- kilogram washer-dryer combo. These solutions are equipped with LG’s advanced AI technology, which automatically adjusts water usage and washing/drying times based on load size, enabling a complete cycle in just 60 minutes.*

Along with energy efficiency, LG’s PROFESSIONAL LAUNDRY lineup boasts outstanding durability. The new washers feature the company’s Ball Balancing System, which supports a maximum spin speed of 1,100 RPM and enhances stability during high-speed washing cycles. The 25-kilogram washer-dryer combo stands out as one of the largest models in the heat pump combo category and is the industry’s first commercial combo to employ an inverter heat pump drying module. This proprietary technology significantly reduces drying times and boosts energy efficiency. Ideal for businesses with high laundry demands, such as hotels and care facilities, LG’s impressive heat pump combo represents a reliable, energy-efficient alternative to traditional gas and electric dryers.

LG’s commercial laundry solutions deliver further value with Proactive Customer Care, a smart service that actively monitors the machines’ operational data to identify potential issues before they arise. This service sends alerts to facility managers through the LG Laundry Crew app, allowing them to take preventive measures and avoid any service interruptions. In addition, the machines are equipped with features designed to safeguard performance, such as Tub Cleaning, which helps maintain hygienic conditions within the drum.

Since entering the global commercial laundry market in 2008, LG has consistently expanded its influence within the segment. Earlier this year, the company strengthened its partnership with WASH, a leading North American laundry service provider, to increase its presence in the growing U.S. and Canadian markets for laundry solutions in multi-family housing and university dormitories. LG also continues to showcase its innovations globally, with a successful appearance at the Clean Show 2022 in the U.S. and now at Texcare International 2024 in Germany.

With its new PROFESSIONAL lineup leading the way, LG plans to continue expanding its presence in Europe’s commercial laundry solutions sector. The company’s high-efficiency washer and dryer technologies will play a key role in helping commercial laundry operations lower their energy consumption.

“Building on our success in the residential washer and dryer market, we are now accelerating our efforts to lead the commercial laundry sector and are excited to launch our innovative, energy-efficient PROFESSIONAL LAUNDRY lineup,” said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company. “Texcare International 2024 is a notable opportunity to grow our commercial laundry business and strengthen our standing in the global market, particularly in Europe.”

      LG has once again left a lasting impression on visitors to ISH, one of the world’s biggest annual tradeshows for HVAC, water and sanitation solutions. Held in Frankfurt, Germany, the event highlighted LG’s extensive range of integrated heating solutions customized for diverse environments and spaces, including high-efficiency residential heat pumps and large-capacity commercial systems.

Displayed in a booth area designed to resemble a stylish European kitchen, the versatile HPWH R290 utilizes both air and electricity as energy sources, achieving greater efficiency than traditional electric or a gas-powered water heaters. Its simple design ensures compatibility with various installation environments and customer needs, offering seamless integration with various types of indoor units, such as control, hydro and combi.

      In response to recent EU restrictions on refrigerant usage, LG has launched a complete lineup of reliable commercial HVAC solutions utilizing R32 refrigerant (GWP of 675). Visitors learned about the innovative, large-capacity Inverter Scroll Chiller, which leverages twin inverter scroll compressors to maximize cooling power and operational efficiency. The Inverter Scroll Chiller can be integrated with LG’s Building Energy Control (BECON) CPM system, which utilizes advanced AI technologies to simplify control and monitoring of LG’s commercial HVAC solutions.

      The Multi V i R32 variable refrigerant flow (VRF) solution was another attraction at LG’s booth. Incorporating the company’s AI engine, the Multi V i intelligently manages temperatures across multiple indoor spaces. This VRF solution includes a full package of integrated solutions, including a number of safety features and systems designed to enhance stability and reliability, and provides time-saving troubleshooting assistance with Smart Diagnosis.

      LG, a pathfinder for innovative heating, has been at the forefront of HVAC innovation for several decades and continues to show the way forward. With its comprehensive exhibit of efficient and sustainable HVAC solutions at ISH 2025, the company reaffirmed its commitment to decarbonization and to paving the way to a better future for all.

With the market expected to exceed 50 percent this year, LG is committed to driving innovation and maintaining its leadership in the OLED TV industry.

      Designed for Elevated Home Living, Company’s Premium Residential Air Conditioner
      Effortlessly Blends Advanced AI Technology With Artful Aesthetics

      SEOUL, Mar. 6, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is unveiling the ARTCOOL AI Air, an advanced cooling and heating solution designed to deliver optimal indoor comfort, sophisticated style and convenient usability. Adopting LG’s advanced AI Core-Tech, this impressive residential air conditioner learns from users’ preferences to provide personalized climate control and improved energy efficiency.
      The ARTCOOL AI Air leverages AI-powered climate optimization to create a more comfortable living environment. Its AI Air mode intelligently adjusts airflow strength and direction in real-time, taking into account the room’s layout and occupants’ positions. Compatible with the ThinQ app, users can remotely monitor and customize airflow settings to suit their preferences. In addition, the Sleep Timer+ function enhances comfort by regulating temperature and airflow based on individual usage patterns, creating the ideal conditions for a restful night’s sleep.
      Boasting a sleek, modern-minimalist design, LG’s latest ARTCOOL fits seamlessly with a wide range of contemporary interior styles. The new model’s black mirror glass finish and the series of horizontal bars composing the grille at its lower edge add a touch of luxurious refinement to any room. The grille not only provides a subtle yet striking visual contrast to the reflective black surface above it but also plays a crucial role in enhancing airflow distribution. When airflow is directed solely through the ARTCOOL’s front outlet, the distinctive multi-line grille structure helps create a “wind spread” of over 180 degrees, delivering a softer and more pleasant breeze.
      Moreover, the company’s new air conditioner proactively helps users save energy with its AI kW Manager and Window Open Detection features. Accessible via the ThinQ app, the AI kW Manager provides real-time power usage data and allows users to set customized energy-usage limits, offering a convenient way to monitor and control the electricity consumption of the ARTCOOL AI Air. The Window Open Detection and the Human Detecting Sensor contribute further to the prevention of energy waste. The Window Open Detection feature switches the air conditioner to energy-saving mode when it detects a sudden change in temperature, while the Human Detecting Sensor activates energy-saving mode when it senses the room has been unoccupied for a period of time.
      “The ARTCOOL AI Air combines sophisticated design with LG’s cutting-edge AI and air conditioning technologies to provide personalized comfort, premium style and intelligently energy savings,” said James Lee, president of the LG ES Company.

      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.

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.”
