В край вечного лета сегодня устремлены взоры большого числа отраслевых экспертов и потенциальных потребителей роскошной домашней техники, которые не терпят компромиссов ни в чём. Традиционно на KBIS (Kitchen & Bath Industry Show) будут представлены лучшие игроки, предлагающие кухонное оборудование элитного класса, которое отвечает потребностям самой взыскательной публики.
Главной интригой январской выставки в Орландо станет участие южнокорейского гиганта Samsung Electronics, который представит свою коллекцию впервые за последние 7 лет проведения KBIS. Судя по распространённому сегодня официальному пресс-релизу, Samsung готов с ходу поразить воображение посетителей, представив сразу 6 комплектов премиальных кухонь серии Samsung Chef Collection на любой вкус в широком ценовом диапазоне.
Помимо выдающихся потребительских характеристик, новые линейки Chef Collection отличаются высокотехнологичным интеллектуальным оснащением и готовы к интеграции в IoT-экосистемы "умных домов" (SmartHome). Благдаря внедрению беспроводных вычислительных модулей ARTIK, связывающих каждое устройство с интернет-сетью и наличию предустановленной операционной системы TIZEN/TIZEN RT, смарт-кухни Samsung принесут совершенно новый уровень сервиса в дома их будущих владельцев.
О возможностях смарт-девайсов Samsung мы уже неоднократно рассказывали поэтому не будем повторяться.
Но это ещё не все новости. Рядом со стендом Samsung расположится не менее грандиозный стенд ведущего американского производителя элитных кухонь - компании Dacor. В 2016-м году Samsung купил эту калифорнийскую фирму с замечательной родословной и теперь намерен совместно с ней штурмовать американский рынок премиальной техники - самый большой в мире.
Благодаря сотрудничеству инженеров Samsung и Dacor, имеющих огромный опыт в выпуске высококачественной техники, на свет появились абсолютно новые линейки кухонных девайсов. Как мы уже упоминали, у Samsung это Chef Collection, а Dacor в этом году сможет похвастаться комплектом оборудования под маркой Modernist Collection, которая обласкана целой серией престижных наград.
Как мы уже сообщали ранее, руководству Samsung в эти дни придётся изрядно поднапрячься, поскольку топ-менеджеры техногиганта вынуждены разрываться между двумя городами США, где в одни и те же дни проходят важнейшие для корпорации мероприятия - CES 2018 в Лас-Вегасе и упомянутая выше KBIS 2018 в Орландо. Однако, надо полагать, всё это, в конечном итоге, приятные хлопоты, так как обоим участникам действительно есть что показать.
Кстати, на KBIS Samsung и Dacor занимают лучшие стенды в самых посещаемых местах.
