Haier blasts off for 4th time with “space refrigerator”

Appliance giant takes to outer space aboard Shenzhou XI mission

Global technology leader Haier takes another giant leap for mankind by joining the Shenzhou XI launch this October. This is the company’s fourth time to join a space mission as part of research and development into aeronautic technology for commercial refrigerator applications.

“We are proud to be the only home appliance brand so far to ever reach space,” said Yutaka Itamochi, President and CEO of Haier Philippines. “Our company has gone a long way in terms of quality and innovation, and our technology is now making history thanks to space missions like Shenzhou XI.”

Big fridge for small business

Full-size functionality with Haier’s large-capacity refrigerators

Food entrepreneurship in the last few years has branched away from the traditional restaurant model as more businesses set up at home or join food parks across the Metro. But success in this rising sector takes more than just delicious food, value for money, or even connections.

“Consumers today aren’t just picky eaters, they also look at the whole service when evaluating the quality of a food stall or restaurant,” Haier’s Product Manager for Refrigerators Jennifer Samson said. “With that in mind, aspiring food businesses should always be ready to meet customer expectations.”

Kitchen functionality is vital to quality food service, and appliances like the refrigerator play a central role in keeping the prep area organized and efficient. Unfortunately, a typical residential fridge might prove too small for storing a week’s worth of food and drinks, while a commercial refrigerator might be too bulky for a house or small stall.

Protect your homes from Zika and dengue with ZAP AK Multi-Insect Killer

With recent reports of a sixth Zika case in the Philippines as confirmed by the Department of Health and twelve cases in Singapore as per the World Health Organization (WHO)’s record, the fear of acquiring the virus is rapidly spreading, too.

As of today, the Zika virus, which is transmitted by the Aedis aegypti mosquito, has reached at least twenty-four countries. Zika is attracting worldwide attention because of its connection with microcephaly, a neurological disorder resulting in babies born with abnormally small heads.

Even before the Zika virus became a worldwide threat, dengue—another mosquito-borne disease—has continually plagued the Philippines.

Consider the numbers: according to data gathered by the WHO Western Pacific Region, dengue cases rose to epidemic levels in 2015, with an average of 220 reported cases per day. As of February 2016, there have been 18,790 reported dengue cases in the country.

How Alkaline Water And Diet Can Help Maintain Your Health

​Much has been said regarding the impact of an acidic body ph to one’s health particularly its connection with various diseases.

The body naturally creates acids as part of the digestive system or as a by-product of various metabolic processes. However, one’s body may experience over acidity due to factors like a diet rich in processed foods, stress, and other lifestyle factors. Chronic over acidity affects all the body’s cellular functions and is seen to contribute to cancer, heart disease, obesity, weight problems, allergies, fatigue and premature aging as well as problems with our nervous system, cardiovascular system and muscles.

Brother’s effortless Refill Tank System redefines ink refilling

Tedious, messy refilling process, and inconsistent printouts - a thing of the past with Brother’s smart, cost-efficient ink solution

Printer consumables—especially ink cartridges—can be a major pain point for many modern offices. In the Philippines, consumers often opt for low-cost alternative of having original ink cartridges refilled with cheaper and inferior ink formulas that can clog print heads and fail to deliver good printouts.

Brother International Philippines Corp., a leader in home and business IT peripherals, introduced a line of Multi-Function Centres (MFCs) that maximize productivity and savings through a smartly designed Refill Tank System. Built right into the machine itself (unlike other refilling devices sold by third-party manufacturers), the easy-to-use Refill Tank System allows users to maximize productivity and savings without risking poor print output and machine damage.

Three-step refill process

Topping up ink levels with the Refill Tank System is easy—users just have to follow three simple steps: open the cover, refill the ink tanks, and close the cover. The refilling process is so easy that users can do it on their own!

Brother also introduced several smart innovations to the system’s design, including a translucent cover that allows users to monitor ink usage at a glance, as well as a tank that can be refilled just by tilting the bottle at a 45-degree angle. At this angle, refilling is quick and mess-free; users will never spill and waste a single drop of ink. The ink goes straight into the tanks, and not on fingers, furniture, clothes, and important documents

Reading pet food labels

How to choose the right one for your pet?

Pet foods in the market today are increasingly becoming more specialized, offering wide array of varieties that are based on the life stage, size, breed, or health condition of the dog or cat.

In an effort to help pet owners make more informed decisions on selecting the best food for their dogs and cats, Pet Food Institute (PFI), shares some tips in deciphering the different components that make up the pet food label. PFI is committed to educating the growing Filipino pet community on responsible pet ownership through its initiative, the Well Fed, Well Nurtured campaign in partnership with the Veterinary Practitioners Association of the Philippines.

Dyson captures the invisible threat in your home

The Dyson Pure Cool™ Link purifier fan automatically removes 99.95% of indoor allergens and pollutants as small as 0.1 microns from the air.1

Globally, air quality in cities is deteriorating. But the air pollution inside your home can be up to five times worse than outside2, and we spend approximately 90% of our time indoors.3

Major indoor air pollutants include gases from cooking and central heating, mould, pet hair, pollen and allergens. Invisible to the naked eye, it is these ultrafine and potentially harmful particles that can travel easily through the air that surrounds us in the home.

Dyson engineers have combined their expertise in fluid dynamics and filtration systems with software to develop the new Dyson Pure Cool™ Link. This is a purifier that gives you an indication of the air quality in your home automatically purifying the pollutants it detects, whilst reporting the live indoor and outdoor4 air quality to the Dyson Link App – making the invisible visible, at the tap of a finger.
