Panasonic unveils innovative way to guarantee wrinkle-free outfits anytime, anywhere

KUALA LUMPUR: Panasonic Malaysia has introduced its latest handheld garment steamers, which come in two models – the NI-GHF025WSK (two-way ironing, foldable) and NI-GHD015WSK (non-foldable).

These appliances are designed with a focus on powerful steam, user-friendly features, and a sleek, minimalist design, reflecting the brand’s dedication to innovation and simplicity.

These handheld steamers are perfect for frequent travellers, busy professionals, and individuals who are always on the go, as these devices simplify the process of achieving wrinklefree outfits, no matter the time or place.

Panasonic Malaysia managing director Keisuke Nishida hailed the new handheld garment steamers as ‘the epitome of Panasonic’s commitment to enhancing customers’ daily lives and overall well-being’.

“Recognizing the on-the-go nature of today’s consumers, we have designed these products with three key elements: convenience, simplicity, and efficiency.

“We are excited about this product as we believe it will revolutionise garment care in Malaysia by offering a compact, convenient and efficient solution.”

The NI-GHF025WSK, a foldable model with ‘Titanium Soleplate’, offers two-way ironing: steam and dry, while the NI-GHD015WSK, featuring a ‘Plastotype panel’, is ideal for delicate fabrics.

Both models boast rapid start-up, allowing users to start steaming clothes in just 30 seconds for the NI-GHF025WSK, and 20 seconds for the NIGHD015WSK. With 1,300W steam power of up to 21gm/min, deep wrinkles are smoothed out quickly.

Another exceptional feature in both models is their ability to steam away 99.99 per cent of mites and bacteria – making them suitable for use on not only clothes, but also on soft toys and pillows and thus, extend the lifespan of fabric-based items.

The new handheld steamers are available for purchase at all official Panasonic online and physical stores, as well as official distributors. The retail prices are RM299 for the NI-GHF025WSK model, and RM179 for the NIGHD015WSK model.
