[Asia Economy Reporter Dongwoo Lee] LG Electronics announced that it will participate in the 'Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) 2020' held in Las Vegas, USA, from the 21st to the 23rd (local time).


LG Electronics prepared a booth with a total area of 920 square meters (㎡) and showcased its ultra-premium built-in 'Signature Kitchen Suite' and 'LG Studio', along with various products applying artificial intelligence.


At this exhibition, LG Electronics introduces its products to 'techniquarians' (gourmets who pursue technology) under the theme of 'Faithful to Cooking.' It unveiled for the first time an under-counter wine cellar and drawer-type refrigerator built into island tables or under countertops.


The under-counter wine cellar can maintain different temperatures in the upper and lower spaces. It can store a total of 41 bottles of wine in an optimal environment. It minimizes vibrations and temperature changes that could affect the wine and reduces exposure to light and humidity.


The under-counter drawer-type refrigerator implements two refrigerators with a capacity of 47 liters each in a drawer form. Both the upper and lower drawers can be set to five modes?refrigeration, freezing, meat and fish, beverages, rice and fruits?and allow manual temperature control. New products such as a 30-inch wall oven, 48-inch gas-electric combo cooktop, French door and column-type refrigerators, dishwashers, and hoods were also introduced.
