[Asia Economy Reporter Han Yeju] LG Electronics announced on the 23rd that it will unveil its new concept table-type air purifier, 'PuriCare Aero Furniture,' at 'IFA 2022.'

Considering the lifestyle of customers who increasingly live in 1-3 person households and use air purifiers in various individual spaces such as bedrooms and studies, LG Electronics plans to launch an air purifier within the year featuring a new convergent design with dimensions of 27.5cm in width and 55cm in height.

The LG PuriCare Aero Furniture has a cylindrical design at the bottom, which draws air in 360 degrees, based on the 'PuriCare 360 Air Purifier,' and the top offers two types of tables to choose from: circular and track-shaped. The product’s purification area is 19.8㎡ (approximately 6 pyeong).

At the bottom of the table, a mood light is applied that allows users to select one of eight lighting colors and adjust brightness in two steps via the LG ThinQ app. The exterior material uses recycled plastic extracted from discarded electronic devices.

The product’s UVnano function sterilizes the fan that blows air using UV LEDs, removing 99.99% of harmful bacteria, and the air purification filter not only has antiviral and antibacterial effects but also removes five major harmful gases including ultrafine dust, ammonia, formaldehyde, toluene, acetic acid, and acetaldehyde.

Even after purchase, new features can be added through upgrades via the 'UP Appliance Center' in the LG ThinQ app.

Customers can choose from three colors: Cream Rose, Cream Yellow, and Cream Gray, and two limited edition tables, 'Travail' and 'Secret admirer,' created in collaboration with artist Kim Sunwoo, will also be introduced.

Lee Jaesung, Vice President and Head of the Air Solution Division at LG Electronics H&A Business Division, said, "Through Aero Furniture, which allows customers to select designs that fit their lifestyle and use them in various ways, we will provide a differentiated customer experience."
