LG AI home solutions took center stage at Innovest Middle East & Africa 2026 in Abu Dhabi, where LG Electronics unveiled its comprehensive range of intelligent home appliances tailored specifically for the regional market. The event, held from February 3-5, 2026, marked the return of Innovest after a seven-year hiatus and showcased LG’s commitment to innovation in fabric care, kitchen solutions, built-in appliances, and cleaning technologies.
Advanced Fabric Care with AI Core-Tech
LG’s fabric care solutions for the Middle East and Africa region feature AI Core-Tech technology that delivers smarter washing and drying experiences. The award-winning 29-inch LG SIGNATURE WashCombo™ combines washer and dryer in a single unit, offering the world’s largest capacity in its category. The newly introduced 27-inch WashCombo™ model, unveiled for the first time at Innovest, caters to large families with an impressive 25kg washing capacity and 21kg drying capacity.
The expanded LG WashTower™ collection now includes a new 25-inch model alongside existing 24-inch and 27-inch variants, providing flexible installation options. These units feature AI Wash and AI Dry technologies that automatically optimize cycles based on load weight and fabric characteristics. LG’s new front-load washer incorporates a sleek flat design with an integrated LCD screen and the advanced AI Direct Drive™ motor for enhanced washing efficiency.
Smart Kitchen Solutions with Integrated Design
The Fit & Max pavilion showcased LG AI home solutions for modern kitchens, emphasizing seamless integration and intelligent functionality. The LG French Door refrigerator with InstaView technology features Zero Clearance hinges that accommodate various kitchen layouts, while the AI Fresh feature provides optimal cooling based on usage patterns. A new bottom freezer model also incorporates Zero Clearance hinges for a sleek, contemporary appearance that enhances kitchen aesthetics.
The completely redesigned SolarDOM™ All-in-One microwave oven represents the first major overhaul in over a decade. This semi-built-in model replaces traditional buttons with a 2.4-inch LCD interface and offers up to 60 automatic cooking menus, including newly added air frying capabilities. Wi-Fi connectivity enables remote monitoring and control through the LG ThinQ app, bringing convenience to everyday cooking tasks.
Enhanced Dishwashing Performance
LG’s latest dishwashers feature QuadWash® Pro technology, which creates micro-bubbles to enhance cleaning performance and reduce cycle times. The AI SenseClean technology automatically adjusts washing times and cycles based on soil levels, ensuring optimal results. All models now include a one-hour wash and dry feature, completing full cycles in less than 39 minutes for maximum convenience.
Premium Built-In Appliances for Luxury Kitchens
The new built-in appliance collection addresses local customer preferences in the Middle East and Africa region, strengthening LG’s competitive position in the luxury kitchen segment. The Wide Combi built-in refrigerator has been expanded to 690mm width (from 540mm), increasing internal capacity to 385 liters (from 233 liters). The Inverter ProBake™ built-in oven heats food faster and more evenly than conventional ovens, utilizing a bi-directional fan powered by a BLDC motor for consistent and efficient heat distribution.
Comprehensive Cleaning Solutions
LG’s cleaning portfolio includes the Wet & Dry vacuum with automatic water supply system and a new robotic vacuum cleaner featuring 100°C steam mopping capability. The robot comes with a concealed charging station designed as a compact table, blending functionality with home décor.
