LG Electronics will roll out a new washer at CES 2024 that offers a more sustainable solution that enhances the daily hygiene of consumers who drink from reusable cups and tumblers.
The company says the new unit, known as LG mycup, simplifies the cleaning process and encourages the regular use of reusable cups and tumblers.
Users clean one tumbler at a time by placing it inside and selecting from two cleaning courses—Quick Wash and Extra Wash—through an app. Both courses utilize a 65-degree Celsius hot water cycle to ensure thorough and sanitary cleaning. It does not appear to need dish washer detergent.
The unit also incorporates LG's Bubble-Jet technology, which is said to significantly reduce water usage while maintaining exceptional cleanliness standards, according to the company that showcases new concepts at the large consumer electronics show in Las Vegas.
By employing bubble jet technology, the Quick Wash course cleans the inside of the tumbler in just 30 seconds, according to LG. And for thorough cleaning and drying for harder-to-clean residues like dairy, the extra wash course utilizes an integrated air-drying design to clean and gently dry the tumbler with a multi-directional water jet and hot air.
"The compact, easy-to-use LG mycup washer cleans tumblers fast and effectively with its powerful cleaning capabilities, which promotes a sustainable lifestyle that protects our planet for future generations," said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company. "We will continue to develop products that impact our customers' daily lives and the environment in a positive way, as we pave the way to a cleaner future."
