Highlights of the Exhibition
Envilonmentally Friendly Products with R290 Refrigerant
Europe is environmentally advanced and actively promotes eco-friendly air conditioning products. In particular, refrigerants, which are essential for air conditioning units, are facing increasing regulations. Thus, the adoption of R290, a natural, non-fluorinated refrigerant with low global warming potential, is being strongly recommended.
We showcased products that use R290 refrigerant along with other products!
Monobloc ATW: A Unit that Heats Rooms by Boiling Water
This black outdoor unit is the Monobloc ATW.
ATW (air to water) refers to equipment that uses heat pump technology, commonly found in air conditioners, to perform air heat exchange and convert cold water into hot.
The hot water produced by the ATW can be directed to floor heating units to warm rooms, and used for showers and domestic hot water needs.
In Europe, the demand for ATW systems as home heating equipment is growing significantly, driven by efforts to achieve a decarbonized society.🙌
A "Black" Air Conditioner, Developed in Response to Strong Demand Europe
The product that particularly caught the attention of visitors at our booth was the black air conditioner, the KM Series.
Traditionally, only white models were available, but in response to strong demand from our European customers, we have launched a model with a soft black color.
In Europe, there is strong demand for black models, driven by a desire to integrate air conditioners seamlessly into interior design.✨
The fact that the Monobloc ATW we mentioned earlier is also available in black underscores this trend. It has a design that blends perfectly with the beautiful homes and streetscapes of Europe.

Wired Remote Controller: A Controller Designed with a Mirror-like Surface, Inviting Tactile Interaction
This is a Wired Remote Controller for air conditioners intended for overseas markets. We displayed 16 remote controllers in a style that resembled illuminations you might see at a seasonal event.💎
The mirror-like design piqued the curiosity of visitors, with many thinking, "What is this?" They were also eager to try out its functionality.
Since its launch, the product has seen increasing adoption worldwide, particularly in markets across North America and Europe. It is now widely used in a variety of settings, including offices, hotels, and homes. If you come across it, be sure to give it a try!
