Mitsubishi R32 ac wins Red Dot Award

GERMANY: Mitsubishi Electric’s M Series MSZ-AP, R32 wall-mounted air conditioner has won a prestigious Red Dot Award.

The internationally recognised Red Dot Award acknowledges products that have achieved the highest levels of design quality. It is judged by an international jury of nearly 40 experts, who said that the MSZ-AP units are “highly user-oriented and well thought out to the detail in both form and implementation”. The judging criteria includes product functionality, degree of innovation, formal quality, ergonomics, durability and ecological compatibility.

Launched at the beginning of the year, the MSZ-AP range includes wifi control utilising the company’s MELCloud app, evenly distributed airflow and a weekly timer for more controlled scheduling.
