THEmmer besserthat is to say “always better”In German: this has always been the ambitious motto of HoneyL’appliance company born in 1899 in Germany who took this really seriously slogan.
But, today, the “getting better” assumes, fortunately, too another connotation: it’s not just the best for the final consumerthat is, those who physically use the appliance, but also for the environment that surrounds us and, consequently, for the future generations.
The focus on sustainability is the basis of the company’s research and development of products, which it has not only managed to become carbon neutral in all its offices, but I enter 2030 also aims at to reduce further CO emissions by 15%2 in phase of use of products.
In fact, from the analyzes carried out, it appears that over 80% of the carbon footprint total derives fromuse of the products by the consumerwhile less than 20% from the remaining phases of the product life cycle.
Miele appliances, 33% in class A
And this deep attention to sustainability – the 33% of the range of domestic appliances is in class A – which never goes to the detriment of the highest performance of the appliance, it is also evident in the dishwashernow an indispensable object in our kitchens.
Not only that: Miele is keen to do information from the consumer – who is already more and more attentive and aware of his own – underlining, for example, how the Eco program is used by users only in 3% of cases for washing machines and in 25% of cases for dishwashers. And that’s a shame, because if it’s true that i eco programs last longer, however, they allow to save more than 50% of energy.

Regarding water saving, thanks to the ECO program the water consumption was reduced to 8.9 liters. Doing so is also needed less energy for heating and the dishwasher is advantageous in terms of energy.
