[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] Shinil Electronics announced on the 7th that its electric blanket shipments (from January 1 to November 30) reached approximately 90,000 units this year, marking a 108% increase compared to about 40,000 units during the same period last year.

According to Shinil Electronics, the increase in electric blanket shipments reflects consumer demand for economical and safe products for heating amid the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting ‘stay-at-home’ culture.

In particular, the ‘Microfiber Electric Blanket’ (SEB-C135BT), which uses microfiber fabric to enhance warmth and improve texture, led Shinil Electronics’ electric blanket sales this year. Shinil Electronics explained that the microfiber electric blanket uses zero-crossing control technology to detect the set temperature and automatically turn the power on and off, reducing electricity costs.

This product is praised for its enhanced safety and convenience. The microfiber electric blanket has obtained ‘EMF’ (Electromagnetic Field Certification), alleviating concerns about electromagnetic waves, and it also features triple safety devices including ▲heat control ▲localized overheating prevention ▲overcurrent power cut-off, enabling safe use.

The temperature can be finely adjusted with a total of seven high and low heat modes, and it includes a sleep mode to prevent low-temperature burns during sleep. Additionally, the company added that it has a safety design function that automatically cuts off power after 12 hours of operation.

A Shinil Electronics official said, “The microfiber electric blanket also pays attention to patterns and designs to brighten up the plain bedroom atmosphere,” adding, “It can satisfy both warmth and interior design aspects.”
