Products

All new products are born out of the Group’s process for consumer-driven product development. Extensive consumer interviews and visits to consumers’ homes have enabled Electrolux to identify global social trends and needs, to which new products are tailored.

Brand

The Electrolux brand commands a global position as a premium brand that represents innovative, energy-efficient products with attractive design. Electrolux is now a leading brand in most major markets.

Cost

The Group has a competitive production structure in which all vacuum cleaners and approximately 55% of appliances are manufactured in low-cost regions.
