BERLIN, Sept. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Nordic countries have a long history of using air-to-air heat pumps, often combined with fireplaces or electrical heaters. However, harsh winters and extremely low temperatures pose challenges, as efficiency drops and additional heat sources are often needed.

Fluctuating energy prices, environmental concerns and performance in extreme cold are key factors when choosing air-to-air heat pumps. Nordic homes, typically equipped with one indoor unit, face issues with even heat distribution and subsequent comfort. Robustness, strong performance, and aesthetic integration are essential, as these heat pumps often run 24/7 from autumn to late spring.

Midea introduced Raynor – built for the North – a product tailored to Nordic conditions. Its name, meaning “wise warrior”, reflects its powerful heating capabilities and smart features that maximize comfort while saving energy. The Nordic focused air-to-air heat pump was awarded the “Excellent Heating Technology Innovation Gold Award” at IFA 2025.

Raynor delivers reliable heating even at -40°C, with full heating performance at -25°C. Its maximum heating capacity of 8kW, ensures that a single indoor unit can heat most Nordic homes. With an A+++ energy efficiency rating and a SCOP of 5.1, Raynor ranks among the most efficient air-to-air heat pumps. Its AI based ECOMASTER function reduces energy consumption by over 30%.

Raynor excels equally in comfort and in design. It offers 180° vertical air deflection for perfect heat distribution, directing warm air in waterfall mode towards the floor. Paired with a unique fireplace mode, it can also circulate heat from stoves or fireplaces, further enhancing efficiency, while a dedicated silent mode ensures warmth without disturbing sleep. Its thoughtful design, light and warm colors and soft, rounded shapes, blends seamlessly into Nordic interiors.

In terms of air quality, Raynor’s “air magic+” function reduces airborne bacteria and viruses, combining temperature control with air purification. Its deep self-cleaning mode warms the heat exchanger to 56°C for 30 minutes, eliminating up to 99.9% of bacteria after two cycles.

Built for durability, Raynor’s outdoor unit features a heated bottom plate, ceramic ball bearings, and corrosion-resistant fins made with Prime Guard Hyper Grapfins, tested to withstand 1500 hours of salt water spray. Its high magnetic energy technology compressor ensures long term performance in cold climates.

Planned to launch in December 2025, Raynor represents another milestone in Midea’s “local for local” strategy, delivering tailored solutions for Nordic heating challenges.

BERLIN, Sept. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Midea, a world-leading home appliance brand, unveils two groundbreaking dishwashers that push the boundaries of sustainability and spatial efficiency. The GreenApex Heat Pump Dishwasher and the TITAN Dishwasher reflect Midea’s enduring commitment to innovative, eco-conscious, and user-focused solutions.

The GreenApex dishwasher, acclaimed with the Excellent Energy-Saving Technology Gold Award at the 2025 Global Product Technology Innovation Awards, introduces a monumental leap in energy efficiency. By seamlessly integrating heat pump technology and eco-friendly R290 refrigerant, it achieves an unprecedented A-50% energy efficiency rating compared to conventional A Class models. This innovation not only minimizes energy consumption but also supports global carbon reduction efforts with its zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP). Each cycle underscores Midea’s pledge to sustainable development and a net-zero future.

Complementing this achievement, the TITAN Dishwasher reimagines space utilization and cleaning performance. Through precision engineering—including an 18% leaner pump system—it offers 26% more upper rack capacity within the same elegant footprint. The “Micro-shell, Macro-capacity” design enhance space efficiency while the zone-specific washing system delivers targeted, spotless results. Whether hosting gatherings or enjoying daily meals, users can now rely on TITAN for powerful cleaning without spatial constraints.

At Midea, we engineer more than appliances—we create systems that enhance lives and protect the planet. From the heat pump revolution in GreenApex to the space optimization in TITAN, our products empower users to gather freely and live sustainably.

Midea invites all IFA attendees to experience these innovations at its booth and discover a new era of intelligent, responsible dish washing.
