https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2406E05] Coway Co., Ltd. recently launched its premium small massage chair, BEREX Mine Plus (MC-B02).
The new product BEREX Mine Plus is a premium lineup of the small massage chair, ‘Mine,’ released in December 2022, and is a product with an upgraded design and more powerful massage performance while maintaining a compact size.
BEREX Mine Plus is equipped with a lower-body specialized massage system that has not previously been seen in the existing small massage chairs, thus greatly expanding the range of massage options. The ‘Leg Convertible,’ specialized for lower body massage, powerfully massages the desired leg area, from thighs to calves. The leg convertible allows one to easily adjust the position of the massage module and receive massage focused on the desired leg area, including thigh and knee massage mode, and calf massage mode.
In addition, the bottom of the product is equipped with a sole roller massage and instep air massage function to provide intensive care to the entire lower body, from thighs to toes.
The massage chair automatically detects the user’s shoulder position and provides optimal massage. The shoulder detection sensor recognizes the height and position of the user’s shoulder and increases the sense of contact with the body, providing a more precise customized massage. In addition, it provides more detailed care to tired areas through a 3-zone heating function that warms the entire body from the back to the hips and calves, and a 3-zone air massage function for the pelvis, calves, and insteps.
The new product, BEREX Mine Plus, offers a total of 12 massage modes that can be selected according to condition and massage preference. You can choose between six automatic massage modes (vitality, relaxation, waist focus, etc.) that are selected according to the situation and condition, and six manual massage modes (kneading, acupressure, tapping, etc.) that perform a focused massage tailored to the desired area.
This product has enhanced usability with various convenient features. Based on the human body curved SL frame, an electric reclining function that can adjust the angle up to 141° is applied, allowing one to enjoy relaxation and massage at the same time in a comfortable position. The control panel is a built-in type that can be easily operated, and is equipped with various convenient functions such as a Bluetooth speaker and USB charging port.
This new product inherits the compact size and design advantages of the existing BEREX massage chair, Mine, and improves space utilization with its slim size. The range of colors available to consumers has expanded to include champagne beige, rose brown, and ink black.
A spokesperson for the company explained, “Our BEREX Mine massage chair is evaluated as a product that opened new horizons for small massage chairs and has been steadily gaining popularity since its launch.

[INQ. NO. 2406E04] athome corporation service inc. recently launched its new product, the mini dryer PRO+ (Pro Plus) under its mini home appliance brand MINIX.
The convenience of use of the mini dryer PRO+ has been improved through improved functionality and increased drying capacity. There is a push button on the door, so one can easily open the dryer with a single touch of the button without using force. In addition, with the same appearance of size, the drying capacity was increased from 3kg to 3.5kg, making it possible to dry a larger amount of laundry at a time while maintaining space efficiency.
A wrinkle-prevention function similar to that of a large dryer is also incorporated in this new product. If you do not take out the dried items immediately after starting the drying operation, the dryer automatically rotates to prevent clothes from being piled up and wrinkled. It is convenient to be able to wear neat clothes without ironing them after drying.
The mini dryer PRO+ is Korea’s only 4-in-1 product that can dry, deodorize, sterilize, and care for clothes, and has attracted attention for its minimalist and trendy design, with more than 120,000 units sold over the past three years since its launch in 2021.
Another strength of the brand MINIX is that it is the only one in the industry to apply a triple filter (intake filter, primary exhaust filter, and secondary exhaust filter), blocking the emissions of fine dust and fiber debris, thereby allowing it to be used indoors with confidence.
A spokesperson for the company explained, “We will continue to upgrade our products so that it becomes not just a small dryer, but a dryer you desire and have to buy.”

 [INQ. NO. 2406E03] SHINIL, which started as a small motor manufacturer in 1959, is a company that has taken the lead in popularizing electric fans in Korea by producing electric fans based on its excellent motor technology.
SHINIL’s recently released its air circulator S10, which is evaluated as a product that accurately understands consumer needs.

The cube type has a differentiated cube-shaped design, giving it a clean and modern appearance, and thus making it an excellent interior product. In addition, it can be operated with various voice commands such as ‘Turn on the fan,’ ‘Raise the wind speed,’ and ‘Find the remote control’ ― making it easier to use without the need to operate the remote control separately.

Air Ventilation System

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

[INQ. NO. 2406E12] HIMPEL Co. Ltd., as an indoor air quality (IAQ) specialist company, manufactures excellent ventilation products to enable healthy indoor life by supplying healthy and comfortable air, with the mission of ‘contributing to human health through air and energy technology.’
HIMPEL, selected by a government agency as a company with excellent quality competitiveness, is a leading ventilation company and is expanding its market, building a wide range of delivery performance and the best professional networks — not only with consumers but also with excellent domestic construction companies.

Customized air solutions
Huven C is a customized air solution that provides comfortable and clean air 24 hours per day, 365 days a year. It removes bad indoor air and fills the space with fresh air, creating a comfortable and healthy living space where one can always breathe comfortably.

Purifying the outside air & bringing it in
While air purifiers continuously circulate and recycle indoor air, HIMPEL’s Huven C ventilation system exhausts polluted indoor air to the outside, and cleanly purifies the air from outside and draws it in.
Purifying indoor air has the disadvantage of not being able to improve carbon dioxide levels, so that is why fresh air from outside must be introduced.
To lower carbon dioxide levels, one needs to open windows and ventilate, but there are disadvantages to doing this, such as allowing in fine dust, pollen, and causing energy loss. If natural ventilation is difficult, one can use Huven C to mechanically ventilate and filter out impurities in the air, while conserving indoor energy through a waste heat recovery device.
