Whirlpool Awarded Gold for Innovation at the Designer Kitchen and Bathroom Awards 2015

Whirlpool is a gold award winner at the prestigious Designer Kitchen & Bathroom Awards 2015, in the category of Innovation in Technology.

The world’s leading manufacturer and marketer of major home appliances was awarded the coveted accolade at the impressive event at the SuperNova, London, on 11th November 2015.

The Designer Kitchen & Bathroom Awards celebrate the finest in design across all fields of the kitchen and bathroom industry.  Winners of the renowned Innovation Awards are hand-picked from the best new products by an eminent team of judges, drawn from an array of sectors, with extensive experience and expertise in the industry.

Whirlpool is lauded for its breakthrough innovation of its Supreme Care washing machines.

The range offers the quietest spin on the market¹, using the very latest technology and design.  With Whirlpool’s revolutionary Zen Technology and new induction motor the average noise level during spinning is reduced to just 67 dB(A).   Offering a massive reduction to noise pollution throughout the home, the Supreme Care washing machine range is the ultimate solution to promoting quietness in the highly fashionable, open-plan living layout so popular in homes today.

Jim McEwan, Category Director, Whirlpool UK Appliances Limited remarked: “This is a tremendous achievement and one of which we are immensely proud.  The Supreme Care washing machine range has been exceedingly well received and this accolade is confirmation of Whirlpool’s continuous innovation on improving our living environment.  With noise becoming increasingly intrusive in the home, the Supreme Care range is a big step towards the company championing quiet appliances for the future.

“We cannot thank the panel enough for recognising the company’s effort and the essential need to make life quieter in the open plan, multifunctional space we all aspire to live in today.”
