[Asia Economy Reporter Dongwoo Lee] LG Electronics announced on the 15th that the LG SIGNATURE refrigerator won the Grand Prize, the highest product award, at Japan's 'Home Appliance Awards 2019.'

The LG SIGNATURE refrigerator was selected as the number one refrigerator (Gold Award) in the 'Home Appliance Awards 2019' as well as the Grand Prize winner among 103 representative Japanese products in 2019. This is the first time a refrigerator has won the Grand Prize at the Home Appliance Awards.

The company explained that the LG SIGNATURE refrigerator received high praise from Japanese consumers for its sophisticated design and differentiated features. This product features an Auto Open Door function that allows the refrigerator door to open without using hands. When a customer approaches the refrigerator door, a light turns on at the bottom of the door. At this time, stepping on the lit area with one foot opens the right door of the refrigerator. This is useful when both hands are holding food items.

Additionally, customers can use the Knock-On function to look inside the refrigerator without opening the door. This reduces the number of times the door is opened and closed, thereby decreasing cold air leakage.

The Home Appliance Awards have been jointly presented every year since 2015 by Japan's home appliance magazine 'GetNavi' and the home appliance specialized online news site 'Kaden Watch.' The award-winning products are selected through online voting based on home appliances sold in Japan during the year, making it a credible award recognized by Japanese consumers.

Song Dae-hyun, President of the H&A Business Division, emphasized, "We will continue to lead the premium refrigerator market in Japan by leveraging the LG SIGNATURE refrigerator, which features LG Electronics' unique differentiated technology and design."
