In 2024, Electrolux Centrala Bygg will be back at Nordbygg.
– We look forward to showcasing our newly launched product range with our most energy-saving products, Sales Manager for Sweden, Andreas Lindström tells us.
The result of Electrolux Group’s own research shows that as much as 85% of the global environmental impact of household appliances happen in the usage phase of the product’s life cycle, a burden for both the environment and the economy. That is why they want to support customers in the selection process before a purchase. But already here in NordbyggNytt, purchasers are given some useful tips before selecting energy and environmentally friendly household appliances.
8 quick tips from Electrolux Centrala Bygg when selecting energy and environmentally friendly household appliances
- When selecting a washing machine, look for a high environmental class and resource-saving functions such as auto-dosage and effective cleansing at low temperatures
- Go for washing machines with steam, that quickly freshens up clothes with just a
fraction of the water usage and minimises the need for an iron
- Choose a tumble dryer with heat pump technology, these use less energy than traditional tumble dryers
- Go for ovens that use steam for cooking, they use less energy both at cooking and cleaning
- Choose energy-efficient fridges, if possible made of recycled materials
- Choose dishwashers with functions that facilitate choosing efficient cleansing and automatic door-openers for energy-saving drying
- Or find those that have temperature control to be able to do everything from simmering to sous vide with just as much energy as it takes for a perfect result
- Look for induction cookers with a sensor that makes it easier to keep the right temperature, so that the user doesn’t burn something or makes something boil over, this also saves energy.
