SEOUL, South Korea, July 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LG Electronics (LG) is expanding its presence in the commercial laundry market with the global launch of the LG Professional Laundry lineup. Enhancing LG’s comprehensive product portfolio, the new lineup offers B2B partners across a broader range of commercial segments – from retail and industrial laundry to hospitality and healthcare – an integrated and intelligent ‘total solution.’ LG Professional Laundry is debuting in Europe this month, with launches to follow in Asia and North America.

Enhanced Efficiency for Commercial Operations
The new LG Professional Laundry lineup is designed to improve operational efficiency in commercial settings, offering large-capacity washers and dryers designed to handle high-volume commercial workloads. Based on an IEC standard seven-kilogram load, the LG Professional WasherDryer can complete a full wash and dry in around one hour.2 This all-in-one solution uses AI Weight Detection to optimize water and energy use according to load size, while the Dual Inverter HeatPump™ enables energy-efficient, low-temperature drying. Its ductless design also eliminates ductwork installation and maintenance, improving flexibility and reducing overheads for business owners.

Advanced Technology for Reliable Performance
LG’s Professional Laundry lineup incorporates advanced technologies to boost performance and efficiency. LG’s Dynamic Ball-Core System uses a built-in gyro sensor to detect drum imbalances in real time while a ball balancer stabilizes the load to minimize vibrations.3 This system enables stable operation at spin speeds of up to 1,100 RPM. The high-speed spin also improves water extraction, helping reduce drying time, energy consumption and noise.

Applied to the lineup’s dryers (including the WasherDryer), Sensor Dry helps reduce over-drying by using model-specific sensor data and intelligent algorithms.4 This garment- and linen-preserving feature adjusts and optimizes drying time based on accurate moisture-level detection. Wet Cleaning with MotionCare provides specialized care for delicate fabrics across both washing and drying cycles. It begins by delivering a gentle, high-performance wash, and completes the process with a protective, low-temperature drying cycle that uses precise drum movements to help mitigate the risk of fabric damage.

Simplified Maintenance and Intelligent Management
LG Professional Laundry solutions are engineered for durability and ease of maintenance. The Front Service Ready design provides easy access to key components, making servicing simpler and faster and reducing downtime. The lineup also helps address operational challenges with features such as Heat Exchanger Cleaning Assist and the Tub Clean cycle. The former automatically rinses the heat exchanger after each cycle while the latter has been verified by Intertek to reduce 99.9999 percent of bacteria in the washer drum (under specified test conditions), helping maintain the internal cleanliness of the machines.5 LG Professional Laundry appliances make it quick and easy for users to select and adjust cycles and settings with the intuitive ProGuide Control – a circular seven-inch LCD touch display with a clean, user-centric design.

Helping to streamline daily operations, the LaundryCrew app enables remote monitoring of equipment status, operational data and machine settings. It also supports software updates and system management, enabling business owners and managers to oversee their laundry solutions and overall operations more effectively. In addition, LG’s Open API can be integrated with existing business systems (through a separate system development process initiated post product purchase), enabling customers to build tailored platforms and further expand their operational capabilities.

Strengthened Global Presence in Commercial Laundry
LG has been building a solid foundation in the commercial laundry sector through its ongoing global B2B initiatives and partnerships. In North America, the company has strengthened its presence by supplying advanced laundry solutions to major service providers, while in Asia, it continues to expand its footprint through localized business models, including the Laundry Crew franchise operation in Thailand. The introduction of the new Professional Laundry lineup marks the next step in LG’s strategy, enhancing its ability to deliver more integrated and scalable solutions for B2B customers across key global markets.

“The LG Professional Laundry lineup is designed to enhance the efficiency and cost effectiveness of commercial laundry operations,” said Baek Seung-tae, president of the LG Home Appliance Solution Company. “By combining our AI-powered washing and drying technologies with our advanced core tech and comprehensive support services, we are providing our B2B partners with solutions that support business growth.”

1 Open API integration is not provided as standard and requires separate system development, which is initiated post product purchase.

2 Results may vary depending on usage environment or load conditions.

3 Based on LG internal lab tests using a 25kg capacity model: water content was 45% after spin (IEC 7kg load), while average drum vibration during cycle was 1.662mm (10kg load). Actual results may vary depending on usage environment or conditions.

4 Available exclusively on OPL-type models, the Sensor Dry feature minimized fabric shrinkage to just 1.9% in internal tests. Actual results may vary based on usage environment or conditions.

5 Tested by Intertek in May 2025. The Tub Clean cycle reduced tested bacteria in the washer drum by 99.9999% under specific test conditions. Real-world results may differ depending on the operational environment.

From Global Orders to Global Growth: Financial Infrastructure for Mid-Market Exporters

Published

on

By

At the 140th Canton Fair, PhotonPay demonstrates how its stablecoin-centric financial operating system helps growing exporters manage cross-border collections, currency conversion and global payments.

HONG KONG, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — For a growing homewares exporter, a major overseas order brings opportunity, but also an immediate question: how will the business finance production, cover shipping costs and manage cash until the buyer pays?

A furniture manufacturer may need to pay suppliers weeks or months before receiving the final payment. A home décor or festive-goods exporter may be managing several seasonal orders at once, each with different delivery schedules, payment terms and currencies. As the business expands into more markets, tracking incoming payments, converting currencies and paying suppliers becomes increasingly complex.

These are everyday challenges behind international trade. At the second phase of the 140th Canton Fair, themed “Quality Home Life” and featuring furniture, kitchenware, household items, home decorations, gifts and festive products, PhotonPay is highlighting how financial infrastructure can help growing exporters manage these demands as they expand internationally.

Financial Tools for the Next Stage of Growth

Large multinational companies can draw on dedicated treasury teams, established banking relationships and sophisticated systems to manage funds across markets. Smaller businesses may have simpler payment needs. Mid-market exporters occupy a different position: their operations span multiple countries and currencies, while their finance teams often remain lean.

At the same time, production and freight costs must be covered before all customer payments arrive. Receivables may be spread across currencies and accounts, while suppliers expect payment according to their own schedules. Finance teams must track receipts, reconcile invoices and maintain a clear view of available funds.

Across multiple markets and overlapping orders, these tasks can consume significant time and complicate decisions about when and where to deploy cash. Growing exporters need practical tools to coordinate collections, manage funds across currencies and pay counterparties worldwide, without having to build a large treasury function from scratch.

Connecting Fiat and Stablecoin Rails to Global Business

Bank accounts and fiat payment networks remain central to international trade, connecting businesses to local collection methods and established banking relationships. Stablecoins offer an additional way to transfer value across borders, with transactions possible outside conventional banking hours depending on the network and transaction arrangements.

Connecting fiat and stablecoin rails can give businesses more flexibility in managing cross-border funds. For exporters, the practical value lies in connecting the stages of a cross-border financial workflow: receiving customer payments, converting currencies and making funds available for supplier payments and other business expenses.

PhotonPay is built around this connection. As a stablecoin-centric financial operating system, PhotonPay brings together a cross-border financial infrastructure across both fiat and stablecoin rails.

Its multi-asset wallet supports fiat currencies and stablecoins within a unified environment. Local collection capabilities cover 21 currencies, enabling businesses to receive payments in the currencies their customers use. Through integrated on- and off-ramp services, businesses can convert between fiat and stablecoins, while 24/7 foreign exchange allow funds to move across markets at any time. Cross-border payouts in fiat and stablecoins are available across 200+ countries and territories. Card issuing capabilities also allow companies to manage overseas business spending directly from one platform.

These capabilities connect the key stages of cross-border financial operations, and for growing exporters, this provides a more integrated way to manage international payments as their business expands.

PhotonPay also extends its infrastructure to platforms through Embedded Finance. Its APIs enable B2B platforms, marketplaces and other digital businesses to integrate financial capabilities, including accounts, fiat and stablecoin wallets, global payouts and card issuing, into their own products. This allows platforms to build collection, payment and fund management services into existing workflows and extend financial capabilities to their customers.

Financial Infrastructure That Grows With the Business

For mid-market exporters, international growth brings new customers, more markets and greater demands on financial operations. The ability to manage funds across borders needs to keep pace, supporting everything from the next production run to the next supplier payment and the next market entry.

By connecting fiat and stablecoin rails within one financial operating system, PhotonPay helps growing businesses manage cross-border funds with greater flexibility as they scale internationally.

Visit PhotonPay at Area D, Booths DT1714–DT1718, during the 140th Canton Fair.

About PhotonPay

PhotonPay is a stablecoin-powered payment operating system built for global infrastructure. Designed for modern enterprises, PhotonPay enables businesses to send, receive, convert, and settle funds across both fiat and stablecoin rails through a single, compliance-first integration, spanning 200+ countries and territories.
