With sustainability embedded into every decision, from product design to operations and corporate governance, this event is another example of the central role sustainability plays in Beko’s corporate culture. Active participation across regions ensured Beko Day brought together internal and external speakers to inspire action, highlight progress, and reinforce Beko’s ongoing commitment to its vision: ‘Respecting the World, Respected Worldwide.’

These kinds of collective actions are at the heart of creating a powerful shared purpose, which is the true driver of meaningful employee engagement.”

A Global Gathering of Ideas and Inspiration

Following opening remarks by Hakan Bulgurlu, CEO of Beko, the programme continued with four impactful sessions designed to spark reflection and drive action. Speakers explored how to move from promise to practice in achieving the 2030 Goals, reflected on three decades of change in sustainability and what lies ahead, highlighted how Beko’s technologies contribute to advancing the SDGs, and discussed how sustainability is embedded in everything the company does.

These sessions showcased how sustainability at Beko extends far beyond technology; embracing collaboration, responsibility, and shared value creation across all functions. Employees and leaders alike shared insights on collective progress toward the 2030 Agenda and Beko’s evolving role as a responsible industry leader.

Local Actions Creating Global Impact

Beko Day activated local communities worldwide, as teams from Türkiye to the UK, Pakistan to Poland turned their chosen SDG focus areas into creative, purpose-driven initiatives.

In Türkiye, employees organised a lively Swap Day, exchanging toys, stationery, and decorative items in support of SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production, and also built birdhouses to promote local biodiversity in line with SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities. In the UK, a bake sale raised funds and awareness for cancer support, contributing to SDG 3: Good Health and Well-Being, while also supporting SDG 2: Zero Hunger through its charitable donations.

Meanwhile, in Thailand employees celebrated SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation through their “Save Tissue, Save the Earth” campaign, displaying awareness posters and encouraging mindful resource use in the workplace.

These were just a few examples of the many creative and purpose-driven initiatives that took place across Beko’s global network each demonstrating how small, local actions can collectively create a lasting global impact.

Participation, Creativity, and Engagement

Employee creativity and collaboration were at the heart of the celebrations. Colleagues across the world joined the Global Beko Day Quiz, exploring sustainability goals and initiatives in an engaging, interactive way. The Slogan Contest further inspired imaginative ideas, with winning entries capturing the spirit of equality, innovation, and sustainable living and these winning slogans will go on to contribute to Beko’s sustainability narrative in future communications.

Across a shared digital platform, teams from 50 countries exchanged reflections, photos, and ideas turning the day into a true celebration of connection, belonging, and creativity that defines the Beko culture while bringing the SDGs to life in a meaningful way.

A Shared Purpose for a Better Future

• Adyen is first to market with the S1E4 Pro, a robust all-in-one mobile device that is spill and drop proof targeted at the F&B space.
• Also announced today, the S1F4 Pro, an all-in-one portable Android device which offers printing power for enhanced flexibility across dynamic retail and service environments.

AMSTERDAM, Nov. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Adyen, the global financial technology platform of choice for leading businesses, today announced the release of two new terminals; the S1E4 Pro and S1F4 Pro. Designed to thrive in challenging environments across various sectors including retail, food & beverage (F&B), hospitality and beauty & wellness, the introduction of these latest terminals marks the latest step forward for Adyen’s in-person payments solutions.

The S1E4 Pro and S1F4 Pro.

S1E4 Pro: Smart inside, strong outside, built to last
The S1E4 Pro is an all-in-one mobile POS built with a durable design to thrive in the most demanding environments, from busy restaurants and bars to high-volume event venues. It is rated IP-65 spill proof and dust proof, plus a 1.5m drop-proof rating. The S1E4 Pro is built to last and withstand the realities of extended, rigorous use which is essential for the service environment where broken terminals can be disastrous for a busy restaurant.

Other key features include a large 6.1-inch screen for viewing in visually challenging settings, an easy to use handstrap, as well as being PCI 6 certified and PCI 7 ready. The S1E4 Pro ensures seamless service and uptime with its fast processor, all-day battery life, and comprehensive connectivity (4G, Wi-Fi). It accepts all major payment methods and currencies via tap, insert, swipe, and QR code scanning.

Running on Android 13 OS, the device allows merchants to integrate and run their existing business apps, effectively streamlining order-taking, payment, and back-of-house tasks into a single, intuitive device.

S1F4 Pro: Smart, portable, with a printer
Optimized for flexibility, the S1F4 Pro functions seamlessly as a dedicated countertop POS when seated in its dock, or as a fully mobile terminal for service on the floor when not docked. The S1F4 Pro’s combination of mobility and an integrated printer offers a distinct advantage, allowing businesses to streamline transactions anywhere in-store. This queue busting functionality significantly reduces customer wait times and accelerates service in busy stores.

The terminal offers full connectivity (4G, Wi-Fi and Ethernet), easily handles all payment methods and currencies, and runs on Android 13 OS, empowering businesses to efficiently manage orders, process payments, and oversee loyalty programs.

Featuring a large 6.7-inch screen, PCI 6 certification with PCI 7 readiness, a fast Octa-core processor, and a long-lasting battery, the S1F4 Pro is built for durability and continuous use. Additional key features include the QR code scanner as well as front and rear cameras.

Elevating customer experience
“This latest product update underscores our commitment to transforming the in-person payments experience,” said Derk Busser, VP of Product at Adyen. “By listening closely to our customers, we’ve identified the key gaps in both our previous offering as well as the industry. These new terminals are designed to directly address those requirements, whether that be the need for a rugged device in an F&B setting, or a mobile terminal for retailers which can print, we want to offer powerful, reliable tools tailored to the operational demands of a whole range of verticals, each which has unique needs.”

Availability
The S1E4 and S1F4 Pro will be available for order in Europe, UK, North America, New Zealand, and the United Arab Emirates in Q1 2026, with the devices rolling out in Mexico, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Singapore in Q2, 2026.

First Launch Sold Out—Exclusive Black Friday Restock with Jaw-Dropping Discounts Available NOW

NEW YORK, Nov. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — VEVOR, the global home improvement brand empowering home creators, announced that its newly launched Hybrid Heat Press has exceeded first-week sales projections, offering the market professional-grade customization equipment at accessible price points. To capitalize on this momentum and meet surging holiday demand, VEVOR is unveiling exclusive Black Friday promotions across its entire Hybrid Heat Press lineup.

Creators Vote with Their Wallets: Launch Week Success

Since its launch, the Hybrid Heat Press has resonated strongly with young creators, stay-at-home entrepreneurs and small business owners. Within the first seven days, VEVOR processed thousands of orders. Customer feedback highlights the 3-step operation and “pull and walk away” convenience as key purchase drivers, with many buyers citing the ability to scale their creative businesses as their primary motivation.

“These numbers validate what we’ve been hearing from the creator community—there’s a real hunger for equipment that delivers professional performance without the professional price tag,” said Gavin, Brand Director at VEVOR. “We’re seeing orders from young creators customizing custom streetwear that reflects their unique personality, college students launching their first Etsy shops, DIY enthusiasts making personalized gifts for friends and family, stay-at-home parents building side businesses, and small boutiques bringing production in-house. The Hybrid Heat Press is empowering people to create, express and profit.”

The product has also gained unexpected traction among school organizations, and community groups seeking in-house customization capabilities.

Your Shortcut to Professional Results—Now with Black Friday Savings

For those who missed the initial launch or have been waiting for the right moment to invest in their creativity, VEVOR’s Black Friday promotion delivers compelling value.

The Hybrid Heat Press’s patented design features a 3-step operation transforms heat pressing from a physical endurance test into an intuitive creative process: pull the board, grab the handle, hit the box. Users pull out the smooth-gliding press board to position their design and fabric, grab the handle to engage the mechanism, then hit the control box to activate 170kg of consistent pressure. The machine maintains that pressure automatically—no arm fatigue, no quality variations, just professional results every time.

This simplified workflow enables creators to complete custom T-shirts in under five minutes, with the freedom to walk away and prepare their next project while the press works. The full pull-out design keeps hands safely away from the 150-240℃ heat plate, while the 15-minute auto shut-off provides peace of mind for busy multi-taskers.

Available in two press sizes—12″x15″ and 15″x15″—the Hybrid Heat Press accommodates everything from standard tees to oversized streetwear designs. The 50mm maximum opening height handles thicker items like hoodies and layered materials, a capability typically reserved for higher-priced equipment. Multi-functionality options include 5-in-1 and 8-in-1 configurations, enabling users to customize T-shirts, caps, mugs, plates, and more with a single investment.

Black Friday Exclusive: Maximum Value for Home Creators

Black Friday Flash Sale: Save up to $47.99+ and FREE Bonuses:

• 12″x15″ 5-in-1 Hybrid Heat Press: Now $161.49 (Reg.$189.99) – SAVE $28.49
• 15″x15″ 8-in-1 Hybrid Heat Press: Now $191.99 (Reg.$239.99) – SAVE $47.99

PLUS: Every purchase includes FREE starter essentials

These offers are available for a limited time during Black Friday 2025, exclusively through vevor.com and Amazon.

Why This Matters: The Personalization Economy Meets Accessible Tools

The Hybrid Heat Press’s strong launch performance reflects broader market trends. The personalization economy continues its double-digit growth trajectory, driven by consumers who value unique, meaningful items over mass-produced alternatives. Simultaneously, social media has democratized marketing, enabling micro-entrepreneurs to build sustainable businesses from bedrooms, garages, and small shops.

Traditional heat presses require significant physical effort and produce inconsistent results. Automatic presses deliver professional quality but cost $400-600+, putting them out of reach for startup budgets. The Hybrid Heat Press occupies this critical middle ground—bridging manual and automatic operation to deliver professional capability at an accessible entry point. Featuring VEVOR’s exclusive patented exterior design, the machine combines professional aesthetics with functional innovation. At nearly half the cost of comparable automatic systems, the Hybrid Heat Press enables creators to invest their savings into materials, marketing, or expanding their product lines.
