Panasonic’s new white goods receive endorsement from the Energy Saving Trust
2nd July 2009
Panasonic is pleased to announce that its new range of white goods are now endorsed by the Energy Saving Trust and therefore carry the coveted Energy Saving Recommended logo.
Under the Energy Saving Recommended scheme, only products that meet strict criteria on energy efficiency can display the logo. The criteria is set by an independent panel and reviewed annually. The logo ensures consumers that they are purchasing the most energy efficient products and will cost less to run whilst also helping to lower CO2 emissions.
Panasonic’s new NR-B30FX1 refrigerator is the industry’s first A++ Energy Rated model with No Frost technology. The exceptional energy efficiency is made possible by a shrewd combination of technological innovations such as Inverter technology and the U-Vacua vacuum insulation panel.
As a result, the new fridge-freezers are much quieter than comparable models while the substantially thinner insulation walls provide greater storage capacity.
Two of Panasonic’s new washing machines, NA-16VX1 and NA-16VG1 are also certified by the Energy Saving Trust as energy efficient appliances. All Energy Saving Recommended washing machines must be AAA rated: A for energy efficiency, A for spin efficiency and A for wash performance. With the EU-rated A-20% energy efficiency class, the premium model, NA-16VX1, has a power consumption of 20% lower than conventional A-category appliances and, like the fridge-freezers, produce best values in terms of electricity use. The washing machines also work faster and use less water by tilting the drum 10°.
