The new showroom is an integrated Eco Solution B2B showcase designed to make specification, installation and maintenance decisions clearer and more intuitive for industry professionals. Guests at the opening were taken through live demonstrations, serviceability walkthroughs, and system integration scenarios spanning LG’s full commercial HVAC portfolio, all under one roof.

Together, we are enabling more dynamic and scalable conversations that help turn engagement into measurable business value,” said Kukuh Prayogi, Enterprise Business Director at Infobip (Indonesia).
