Bosch demonstrated its vision for a future guided by responsibility and conscious living on its stand at this year’s Eurocucina through sustainable consumption, high quality products built to last and inspiring lifestyles.
One example is the Bosch Green Collection. Fridge-freezers offer low energy consumption and are made with more environmentally friendly materials with 33% less CO2 in production material compared to a model with conventional production material.
Key product features include No Frost technology that prevents the formation of ice crystals and eliminates the need for defrosting in the freezer. In the refrigerator, the VitaFresh freshness system keeps food fresh for longer to help reduce food waste.
Bosch Green Collection dishwashers also offer low energy consumption and are produced proportionately with CO2-reduced stainless steel. Compatible with Home Connect, households can track water and energy usage, as well as consumption history.
Bosch also presented its first hydrogen-powered cooktop that does not emit any carbon emissions. In an initial pilot, around 100 households are being equipped with 100% green hydrogen-powered cooktops in Scotland.
“The key message for our Bosch stand was to ‘Live Responsibly’ and we took the opportunity to explore innovative paths to create a better, healthier and more sustainable life,” BSH general manager of retail sales, Robert Warner told Appliance Retailer.
“We had a number of new surface, ventilation and cooling products on display, but I was most interested in new initiatives in our Green Collection and Hydrogen Hob.
“The Green Collection is focused on delivering significantly reduced carbon emission both in the manufacturing of the product and in the efficiency of the product while being used. This was well received by the architects and designers I spoke with at the fair.
“We have also presented the prototype for our first ever hydrogen powered cooktop which is currently being piloted in Scotland. This is an exciting pilot and a technology that the broader Robert Bosch business in Australia is currently exploring.”
