- 9 April 2026 - LG Electronics (LG) is showcasing its latest products
and region‑specific solutions at LG InnoFest 2026 APAC, held in Busan,
Korea, from April 7–10. The event marks the grand finale of LG's 2026
InnoFest series, bringing together more than 200 key partners and media
representatives from approximately 20 countries across the Asia-Pacific
region to strengthen collaboration and share business strategies.
Under the theme "Innovation, Forward Together," LG InnoFest 2026 APAC
offers a comprehensive look at LG's latest products and solutions
designed around Asian consumers' lifestyles. Drawing on cultural
elements that resonate widely across the region, the exhibition
demonstrates how LG applies its K‑Tech innovation to deliver practical,
locally relevant home solutions for diverse Asian markets.
A New Generation of Clothing Care Solutions
LG is expanding its laundry portfolio with a full WashTower™ lineup,
including a new 25-inch model tailored for Asian homes, alongside
existing 24-inch and 27-inch versions. Designed for space efficiency and
everyday convenience, the lineup reflects LG's deep understanding of
diverse housing environments across Asia.
New top-load washer models further enhance fabric care and performance,
powered by Artificial Intelligence Direct Drive™ (AI DD™) technology
that optimizes wash motions based on fabric type and soil level, while
TurboWash™ 3D completes a full cycle in under 30 minutes. In addition,
an automatic dispenser measures and dispenses detergent for each load,
reducing the need for frequent refills.
The new LG WashCombo™ further strengthens LG's drying solutions as an
all‑in‑one model, delivering stable and effective drying through LG's
Inverter HeatPump™ technology. The improved energy efficiency reflects
the strong focus on electricity costs among Asian consumers, while an
expanded standalone dryer lineup offers a broader range of
high‑efficiency options.
LG also offers commercial laundry solutions engineered for
high‑frequency, long‑hour operation. Building on more than a decade of
semi‑commercial experience, the portfolio features professional‑grade
capabilities such as customizable wash programs, open API connectivity,
and a service‑friendly front‑access design. Leveraging this expertise,
LG will introduce a new commercial washer‑dryer HeatPump Combo that
integrates washing and drying in a single unit, enhancing convenience
and space efficiency. Global expansion is planned following strong
demand in Korea.
Smarter Kitchen Solutions for Every Lifestyle
LG is unveiling refrigerator solutions designed to reflect diverse
lifestyles and housing conditions across Asia. The new Fit & Max
design features a Zero Clearance Hinge, enabling a seamless built‑in
appearance without wasted space against the wall, while maximizing
storage capacity in compact kitchens. LG's advanced Ice Solution
addresses the high ice consumption common among Asian consumers,
offering four ice options — Craft Ice™, Crushed, Cubed and Mini Craft —
suited for everyday use and entertaining.
For faster, more effective dish care, LG's latest dishwasher features an
exclusive one‑hour wash‑and‑dry cycle. QuadWash™ Pro uses four spray
arms with high pressure water jets and microbubbles to clean dishes from
multiple angles. Dynamic Heat Dry+ enhances drying performance with a
moisture-absorbing material to remove humidity and efficiently produce
warm, dry air. Notably, A-grade energy efficiency is achieved across key
models spanning both premium and volume segments.
For Southeast Asian markets, LG will also introduce a tailored built-in
kitchen collection that includes ovens, cooktops and hoods, targeting
both B2B and B2C segments. A highlight is the advanced Camera Oven,
which uses an internal camera to identify ingredients inside and
recommend optimal cooking mode, while monitoring surface color to check
when dishes are ideally cooked.
An Immersive Exhibition Experience
For the first time at InnoFest, LG will host live commerce sessions for
partners in selected markets, creating a dynamic, interactive sales
environment directly from the event floor.
Moreover, attendees can explore three distinct exhibition zones, each
representing different home environments across Asia. While the
lifestyles showcased reflect diverse regional needs, the spatial designs
are inspired by Korean dramas that have gained strong resonance across
the region, creating an engaging and familiar experience for partners.
Within these zones, LG brings its AI Home vision to life, demonstrating
how intelligent technologies can enhance everyday living with greater
convenience. Powered by the AI Home Hub, ThinQ ON™, LG's AI‑enabled
appliances and IoT devices are seamlessly connected and coordinated to
deliver intuitive, integrated home experiences. ThinQ ON has already
launched in its initial market and is scheduled for a phased
introduction across Asia, starting with Australia and Thailand.
As part of its long-term growth strategy in Asia, LG is extending its
innovation beyond products through the global expansion of LG Subscribe,
a flexible subscription service for home appliances. The company is
actively developing this business in key urbanized Asian markets,
including Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan, Singapore and Vietnam, offering
customers both access to appliances and comprehensive product care.
"Asia is one of our most dynamic and important markets, and InnoFest
2026 gives us a valuable opportunity to connect with our partners and
share our vision for the future," said Jaeseung Kim, Regional CEO of LG
Electronics Asia Pacific. "Building on our technology innovation, we are
advancing AI‑powered home solutions that reflect local lifestyles."
