SK Magic Reenters the Food Waste Processor Market After 14 Years

SK Magic's EcoClean Food Waste Processor.

[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Dong-hyun] SK Magic, which recently entered the mattress market for the first time, has expanded its lifestyle subscription domain by re-entering the food waste disposer market after 14 years.

SK Magic announced on the 2nd that it will conduct pre-orders and a launch commemorative promotion from the 3rd to the 30th ahead of the release of the ‘EcoClean Food Waste Disposer’ on the 10th.

The EcoClean Food Waste Disposer is an eco-friendly food waste disposer applying Korea’s ‘circulating dehumidification drying and grinding technology.’ Unlike simple drying and grinding type food waste disposers, it features the principle of a dehumidifier that converts moisture in the air into water. It condenses food waste odors and moisture into clear water and discharges it through the drain.

It does not release various odors and moisture generated during food waste processing to the outside, allowing a comfortable indoor environment without worries about odors, bacteria, or mold even in hot and humid summers. In particular, it additionally applies a ‘vacuum clean filter’ that removes more than 99.9% of even fine odors, blocking problems such as filter contamination, bad odors, and bacterial growth caused by moisture vapor once again. Furthermore, the drying container that holds the food waste is heated to a high temperature to sterilize 99.9% of various viruses and bacteria such as E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus, maintaining a clean and hygienic product condition.

The processing speed is 4 hours per cycle (based on 500g of standard food waste sample), quickly drying and grinding food waste so there is no need to separately collect or wait for the food waste. Also, with powerful grinding force and drying container cooling technology, it reduces the volume of food waste by up to 80% or more, minimizing environmental burden.

Use and management are also simple. Anyone can easily use it with a single touch without complicated settings, and after operation, the door automatically locks until the appropriate temperature is reached to prevent safety accidents. In addition, it provides optimized convenience features for users such as one-touch cleaning, low-noise design, and operation (jamming) prevention. When used with the ‘dedicated storage stand,’ designed with a two-stage separable structure, it can be used more conveniently at an optimal height without bending over, and it can also be used as a multipurpose storage box in daily life.

The colors are ▲Misty Beige ▲Misty Green ▲Misty Blue ▲Misty Coral, offering consumers a wider range of choices. It applies SK Magic’s differentiated ‘Natural Monochrome’ design that pursues harmony with the space.

An SK Magic official said, "SK Magic introduced a food waste disposer in 2008 and has spared no time or research to develop an eco-friendly food waste disposer that can be used hygienically without worrying about odors. We will continue to prioritize customer value and strive to become a lifestyle subscription company that provides customers with health, convenience, and eco-friendly values.”
