on

Equipped With Cutting-Edge AI Technologies, the Company’s Large-Capacity Commercial Washers and Dryers Deliver Excellent Energy Efficiency

SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — LG Electronics (LG) is showcasing its PROFESSIONAL LAUNDRY lineup at Texcare International 2024, a global B2B laundry and textile care exhibition, held in Frankfurt, Germany, from November 6-9. Prioritizing energy efficiency, the new lineup features a variety of large-capacity solutions, including 30-kilogram washers and dryers, as well as a washer-dryer combo with heat pump, offering a maximum capacity of 25 kilograms for washing and 16 kilograms for drying. With the launch of its PROFESSIONAL LAUNDRY lineup, LG aims to strengthen its position in the commercial laundry market, both in Europe and worldwide.

LG’s comprehensive range of large-capacity commercial washers and dryers provides several outstanding options for customers to choose from. The new PROFESSIONAL LAUNDRY lineup features 20-, 25- and 30-kilogram washers, as well as 25- and 30-kilogram dryers, along with a 25- kilogram washer-dryer combo. These solutions are equipped with LG’s advanced AI technology, which automatically adjusts water usage and washing/drying times based on load size, enabling a complete cycle in just 60 minutes.* 

Along with energy efficiency, LG’s PROFESSIONAL LAUNDRY lineup boasts outstanding durability. The new washers feature the company’s Ball Balancing System, which supports a maximum spin speed of 1,100 RPM and enhances stability during high-speed washing cycles. The 25-kilogram washer-dryer combo stands out as one of the largest models in the heat pump combo category and is the industry’s first commercial combo to employ an inverter heat pump drying module. This proprietary technology significantly reduces drying times and boosts energy efficiency. Ideal for businesses with high laundry demands, such as hotels and care facilities, LG’s impressive heat pump combo represents a reliable, energy-efficient alternative to traditional gas and electric dryers.

LG’s commercial laundry solutions deliver further value with Proactive Customer Care, a smart service that actively monitors the machines’ operational data to identify potential issues before they arise. This service sends alerts to facility managers through the LG Laundry Crew app, allowing them to take preventive measures and avoid any service interruptions. In addition, the machines are equipped with features designed to safeguard performance, such as Tub Cleaning, which helps maintain hygienic conditions within the drum.

Since entering the global commercial laundry market in 2008, LG has consistently expanded its influence within the segment. Earlier this year, the company strengthened its partnership with WASH, a leading North American laundry service provider, to increase its presence in the growing U.S. and Canadian markets for laundry solutions in multi-family housing and university dormitories. LG also continues to showcase its innovations globally, with a successful appearance at the Clean Show 2022 in the U.S. and now at Texcare International 2024 in Germany.

With its new PROFESSIONAL lineup leading the way, LG plans to continue expanding its presence in Europe’s commercial laundry solutions sector. The company’s high-efficiency washer and dryer technologies will play a key role in helping commercial laundry operations lower their energy consumption.

“Building on our success in the residential washer and dryer market, we are now accelerating our efforts to lead the commercial laundry sector and are excited to launch our innovative, energy-efficient PROFESSIONAL LAUNDRY lineup,” said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company. “Texcare International 2024 is a notable opportunity to grow our commercial laundry business and strengthen our standing in the global market, particularly in Europe.”

By

MetaMetrics partners with Lumina Education to embed globally recognized Lexile® measures in assessments and learning tools.

SINGAPORE, Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Today at EDUtech Asia, Asia’s largest conference and exhibition for educators and EdTech providers, MetaMetrics®, a leader in educational measurement and research, announces the launch of the Lexile® Framework for Reading in Indonesia. This groundbreaking initiative through Lumina Education, a subsidiary of Lippo Group, will begin in 50 schools across the country. Lumina’s reading program, BukuAku, is designed to help students enhance their English reading proficiency by providing accurate reading measures and matching them with books appropriate for their reading level.

“We are excited to work with Stephanie and the Lumina team to bring the value of the Lexile Framework to Indonesia’s English language learners…Lumina Education’s mission to build a brighter future aligns strongly with our own vision.” –Brad Baumgartner, CEO, MetaMetrics.

At the core of the BukuAku program is the LTS Reading Test, powered by the Lexile Framework for Reading, a powerful tool for assessing a student’s reading ability and matching them to reading materials at their level. Unlike traditional assessments, BukuAku offers more than just a score; it provides a roadmap for growth by matching students with books in their Lexile range, creating a personalized learning experience that fosters curiosity and encourages a lifelong love of reading.
The launch event, held on November 5 in Jakarta, is a significant milestone, attended by influential leaders from both MetaMetrics and Lumina Education, including Stephanie Riady, CEO of Lumina Education.

“We are thrilled to bring the Lexile Framework to Indonesia and incorporate it into BukuAku,” said Stephanie Riady. “This partnership isn’t just about launching a new product; it’s about building a better future for students across Indonesia by enhancing their English literacy and giving them tools to succeed in a fast-changing world.”

“The development of the new LTS Reading Test involved a team from both companies, led by Catherine Mulyana, Chief Operating Officer of Lumina Education, and Lisa Bickel, Vice President of Partner Success at MetaMetrics” continues Stephanie, “working together, we tailored reading tests and resources to meet the needs of Indonesia’s English learners. One of the most powerful aspects of the program is tailored intervention strategies for students with lower-than-expected Lexile measures who need extra support.”

“We are excited to work with Stephanie and the Lumina team to bring the value of the Lexile Framework to Indonesia’s English language learners,” comments Brad Baumgartner, CEO, MetaMetrics, “our teams worked with Indonesian students to ensure the questions, assessments, reading materials, and the measurement scale connect together seamlessly. Lumina Education’s mission to build a brighter future aligns strongly with our own vision,” concludes Brad.

Integration of the Lexile Framework within BukuAku elevates how reading skills are taught and nurtured in Indonesia, empowering educators with actionable insights to support student growth. Lexile measures are also incorporated into Lumina Testing Services (LTS), a new web app offering educators detailed insights into student progress. With LTS, teachers and administrators can seamlessly monitor student growth, check for any potential gaps, identify improvement areas, and make data-driven decisions that promote better student learning progression.
