Cuckoo "Rapid Increase in Pet Hygiene and Health Interest... Pet Dry Room Sales Up 13%"

[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] With the surge in interest in hygiene and health, sales of pet dry rooms have been increasing.

On the 21st, Cuckoo Electronics announced that the sales volume of the representative product of its pet brand Nello, the ‘Pet Air Shower and Dry Room,’ increased by 13% in the first quarter of this year compared to the previous quarter.

Cuckoo analyzes that this is due to the expansion of hygiene and health concerns to pets amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and the implementation of strict ‘social distancing,’ which has led to a sharp increase in indoor life instead of outdoor walks, equipping functions that can reduce stress for pets.

The Pet Air Shower and Dry Room was developed with advice from expert groups such as pet behavior specialists (trainers) and veterinarians, considering the characteristics of pets. It features an ‘air shower function’ that shakes off fine dust and contaminants attached to pets’ fur, which is difficult to bathe daily, and a drying function that perfectly dries pets’ fur for 30 minutes after bathing using the independently developed ‘Twin Fan’ technology.

The Twin Fan technology operates two fans at different rotation speeds, blowing 4D three-dimensional air inside the pet dry room through 36 air outlets. It thoroughly dries even the chest and belly fur, which were difficult to manage without direct blow-drying, helping to care for pets from skin diseases and contaminants caused by improper drying.

Designed to provide pets with a cozy and comfortable environment, it can also be used as a pet house indoors. It includes a sleep mode for temperature control, allowing pets sensitive to changing seasons and temperatures to maintain a comfortable body temperature suitable for the season.

The transparent window attached to the door allows owners to watch and reassure their pets even while using the drying function, and the door can be pushed open from the inside so that pets can exit on their own during use.

Besides the door, the room part and the driving unit are separable, and all parts of the room, including air outlets and footrests, can be easily detached for convenient cleaning. The entire room part can be washed by immersing it in water, and its sturdy yet lightweight material allows it to be moved to the bathroom for cleaning, ensuring it can be kept clean and maintained at all times.

A Cuckoo Electronics official said, “The Nello Pet Dry Room is a carefully developed product that considers both indoor and outdoor activities of pets,” adding, “It hygienically manages pets’ fur and skin contaminated outdoors, and its effective functions for calming pets stressed by increased indoor activities have recently attracted more attention from households raising pets.”
