To mark the 100th anniversary of IFA, BSH is showcasing its latest product highlights with focus on digitalisation and sustainability. In celebration of the 10th anniversary of its digital ecosystem Home Connect, BSH is also offering a glimpse into the future of the connected kitchen, including the world’s first Matter-enabled home appliance, which facilitates easy connectivity and simplifies everyday life. For the third year in a row, BSH’s appliances and solutions fill Hall 1.1 covering an area of 6,000sq m.
“I am delighted that as Europe's leading home appliance manufacturer, we have always been able to excite people at IFA with our latest products,” said Enrico Hoffmann, head of sales central Europe, pictured. “This year’s 100th anniversary of IFA provides a unique environment to present new technologies from our brands Bosch and Siemens that meet our consumers’ needs while addressing important trends like artificial intelligence and energy efficiency.”
Bosch is showcasing not only home appliances but also appliances and technologies that help achieve perfect results throughout the entire home. This year's highlights include the new French Door fridge-freezer combinations, the new Series 4 and 6 ovens with AirFry and steam function, and new 6 and 8 Series washing machines that save energy, water, electricity and detergent with every wash cycle.
Siemens is focusing on the desire for simplicity in everyday life. The new hobs with diamondProtect are equipped with a scratch-resistant CERAN surface, guaranteeing easy maintenance and durability. Siemens is now also introducing the new material for the first time in the iQ500 inductionAir Plus hob. Another highlight of the intelligent kitchen is the iQ700 oven with food recognition.
BSH will launch a Matter-enabled home appliance in 2025 that is being displayed at IFA: an XXL built-in fridge-freezer combination for both the Bosch and Siemens brands. The new Matter connectivity standard will enable fast and easy cross-brand connectivity in the future, offering even more benefits for everyday use.
