SEATTLE, March 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Tineco announced today that its flagship floor washer, the FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam, has been named a winner in Good Housekeeping’s 2026 Cleaning Awards for “Multifaceted Floor Vacuum.” Among several brands recognized across vacuum categories, Tineco was the only company honored in the Floor Washer category, reinforcing its leadership in one of the fastest-growing segments in home cleaning.

Tineco’s FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam Named As a Good Housekeeping 2026 Cleaning Awards Winner

Good Housekeeping’s 2026 Cleaning Awards recognize products that demonstrate meaningful innovation, performance, and consumer value. The FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam stood out not only for its advanced integration of vacuuming, washing, and steam technology in a single premium system, but also for how it responds to the evolving demands of modern households. Today’s consumers seek efficient, space-saving, and intelligent solutions that simplify routines without compromising results. By combining multiple cleaning functions into one seamless system, the S9 Artist Steam delivers practical, time-saving performance that aligns with the realities of busy, design-conscious homes. Its intuitive operation and premium aesthetic reflect Tineco’s broader “Modern Living” vision – where smart technology enhances everyday life in ways that feel effortless and refined.

“This award is especially meaningful because it validates what we’ve been building at the highest level of the category,” said Mr. Leng, CEO of Tineco. “This recognition signals an important shift in how consumers see Tineco. While we’ve built strong awareness in smart cleaning, the FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam represents our most advanced expression of innovation: a high-performance, design-forward system built to compete at the top of the market. Being the only brand awarded in the Floor Washer category demonstrates that Tineco isn’t just participating in the category, we’re defining where it’s headed”

The FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam combines powerful suction, continuous washing, and high-temperature steam to tackle stuck-on messes while delivering a deeper level of clean. Powered by Tineco’s proprietary iLoop™ Smart Sensor Technology, the system automatically detects debris levels and adjusts suction, water flow, and steam intensity in real time, optimizing performance without manual adjustments.

Beyond its technical capabilities, the S9 Artist Steam is engineered to adapt seamlessly to a variety of real-life cleaning scenarios – from everyday kitchen spills and pet messes to high-traffic living areas that require deeper sanitation. By eliminating the need to switch between multiple tools, it streamlines floor care into a single, efficient process. The integration of steam adds an extra layer of hygienic confidence, while its intelligent automation reduces guesswork and physical strain. This thoughtful combination of performance, versatility, and ease of use is what resonated with the GH team, recognizing the product not simply as a feature-rich appliance, but as a comprehensive solution for contemporary home care.

Experts across the GH Institute, including pros in the Home Care & Cleaning Lab, Media & Tech Lab, and Home Improvement & Outdoors Lab, rigorously tested 200 submissions to identify the most innovative products for this year’s GH Cleaning Awards. In addition, nearly 800 home testers rolled up their sleeves to evaluate the products in their own homes and share honest feedback. To choose the winners, judges focused on attributes like performance, design, ease of use, uniqueness, value, and safety. The full list of Good Housekeeping 2026 Award winners, including the FLOOR ONE S9 Artist Steam, can be viewed at Good Housekeeping’s 2026 Cleaning Awards and will also appear in the March/April issue of Good Housekeeping magazine.

Woori IO, an OSR Company, Signs NDA with Sinopharm for China Market and Global Multicenter Trials

BELLEVUE, Wash., March 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — OSR Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSRH), a healthcare-focused holding company advancing innovative medical technologies, today announced that its subsidiary, Woori IO Co., Ltd. (“Woori IO”), has entered into a mutual non-disclosure agreement (“NDA”) with Sinopharm Group Beijing Huahong (“Sinopharm”), the Beijing-based unit of Sinopharm Group and major state-owned healthcare and pharmaceutical distribution enterprise of China. This announcement is being made in accordance with Regulation FD to ensure broad, non-exclusionary public dissemination of this information.

The NDA establishes a formal framework for Woori IO and Sinopharm to exchange confidential information relating to Woori IO’s noninvasive near-infrared (NIR) glucose monitoring technology, allowing both parties to evaluate potential regulatory, clinical, and commercial pathways in China. Sinopharm Group, with reported 2024 revenue of approximately USD 81 billion, is generally considered China’s largest pharmaceutical and medical device distributor with the most extensive nationwide network.

China represents one of the world’s largest and fastest-growing diabetes markets, with more than 140 million people estimated to be living with the disease and rising demand for convenient glucose monitoring solutions. China’s diabetes device market is projected to expand significantly over the next decade, potentially exceeding $12 billion by 2032, according to a report by Research and Markets, as adoption of advanced glucose monitoring technologies accelerates. Woori IO’s proprietary NIR optical sensing technology addresses this demand directly, offering noninvasive, needle-free continuous glucose monitoring without the pain and adoption barriers of conventional invasive methods.

“China is a highly compelling market, given its large and growing diabetes population and increasing adoption of advanced glucose monitoring technologies,” said Peter Hwang, CEO of OSR Holdings. “Our engagement with Sinopharm reflects the strategic importance of the China market and the potential role that established national distribution platforms may play in enabling future commercialization. While still at an early stage, this engagement underscores the broader global interest in Woori IO’s noninvasive glucose monitoring platform.”

Woori IO has received additional interest from healthcare organizations, pharmaceutical companies, and distribution partners across multiple regions, highlighting growing recognition of its noninvasive glucose monitoring platform and strong demand for more accessible, patient-friendly solutions. “Our NDA with Sinopharm allows us to begin evaluating potential regulatory and commercial pathways in China while continuing discussions with partners in other regions,” said Sunkie Park, CEO of Woori IO. “These interactions could help shape future clinical development programs, including potential global multicenter trials.”

While discussions remain preliminary, OSR Holdings intends to actively pursue strategic partnerships across major international markets as it advances development, regulatory strategy, and potential commercialization pathways for this next-generation glucose monitoring technology, which could represent a transformational step forward in improving accessibility and convenience in diabetes care globally.

We look forward to further enhancing the theatrical experience and growing the list of AMC and Odeon locations where guests can enjoy SCREENX and 4DX in the months and years to come.”

The new auditoriums will showcase a slate of major upcoming releases enhanced for SCREENX and 4DX, including “Project Hail Mary,” “The Super Mario Galaxy Movie,” “Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu,” and “Spider-Man: Brand New Day”, from studios including Amazon MGM Studios, Universal Pictures, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, and Sony Pictures.
