For more than seven decades, ASKO has etched its name in the annals of Scandinavian design and its new Celsius induction cooktop is another great leap forward.
ASKO’s journey is a testament to its commitment to healthy living, functional design, dedicated craftsmanship and environmental responsibility. The brand’s ethos is rooted in the vision of an enterprising young farmer named Karl-Erik Andersson. What began as a quest to build an efficient and environmentally friendly washing machine for his mother has blossomed into a global brand synonymous with premium kitchen, laundry and professional appliances.
Karl-Erik’s ingenuity led to the creation of a unique washing machine with superior cleaning power and reliability, setting new standards with its state-of-the-art stainless-steel drums. The demand for his groundbreaking creation spurred the establishment of a world-class engineering and manufacturing facility on the family farm, a foundation that still stands strong today.
Seventy years on, ASKO remains committed to its core Scandinavian values, delivering innovative appliances that embody purposeful design and healthy living. As a global brand available in more than 50 markets worldwide, ASKO has come a long way from its small farmstead origins in Sweden. Yet the brand continues to uphold Karl-Erik’s dream of bringing quality home appliances to everyone. In Australia – its largest international market – ASKO has been providing the nation with state-of-the-art products designed to enhance the modern home for more than five decades.
In the world of ASKO, where understated elegance meets functionality, the Celsius°Cooking system exemplifies award-winning Scandinavian design.
The upcoming launch of the Celsius induction cooktop highlights the company’s commitment to blending technology and wellbeing. This system, representing a revolutionary stride in smart induction technology, integrates Bluetooth-connected accessories, offering home cooks precise temperature control and guided recipes. Vincent Hofstee, ASKO’s global design manager for cooking and refrigeration, describes Celsius°Cooking as “a professional guidance tool, or a GPS, in the kitchen, giving people the inspiration and confidence to create new dishes that really impress with far less stress than if they were exploring the recipes on their own.” This pioneering approach has earned ASKO’s Celsius°Cooking induction hobs and smart cookware system an iF DESIGN AWARD, a recognition of its outstanding design.
In the world of ASKO, where understated elegance meets functionality, the Celsius°Cooking system exemplifies award-winning Scandinavian design.
