Whirlpool launches new combi fridge freezer range with fresh aesthetic

Whirlpool, the world’s leading manufacturer of major home appliances, introduces a new range of combi fridge freezers with the addition of a modern aesthetic, called Absolute.

Whirlpool’s new Absolute aesthetic offers an eye-catching, sleek and progressive exterior finish that adds a fashionable twist to this new generation of combi-refrigeration. There are four new models featuring the new aesthetic, each with different configurations and benefits for an extended choice.

A key model in the range is the ‘A++’ energy rated WBV 33992 NFC IX Green Generation combi fridge freezer, which boasts Whirlpool’s patented 6th Sense® technology with electronic sensors that monitor and adapt the temperature and humidity levels accordingly to ensure outstanding food preservation. The fridge has an Activ0° compartment to store meat and fish at the ideal temperature and humidity to safeguard preservation of taste, appearance and nutrients.

This new combi fridge freezer also features Whirlpool’s 6th Sense® Fresh Control, which circulates chilled air around the fridge to maintain a constant level of humidity, extending food preservation of up to four times longer.
