ISTANBUL, March 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Beko, leading global home appliances company, has been honored with four iF DESIGN AWARDS 2026, one of the most prestigious and globally recognised design competitions. The awards celebrate excellence across physical product design and digital user experience, reinforcing Beko's commitment to creating home solutions that are stylish, practical, and built to last.
Selected from over 10,000 submissions across 68 countries, the winning entries – Beko 36 Inch Multi Door Refrigerator, Hitachi Skyline Side By Side Refrigerator, Beko Intelligent Guidance (UX) and Beko Coffee Experto V4 (UI) – were evaluated by an independent panel of leading international design and sustainability experts.
With 28 R&D and design centers and more than 2,300 researchers, Beko continues to prove that thoughtful, beautiful design and rigorous digital engineering can coexist, delivering solutions that earn both awards and a lasting place in people's homes.
The Winning Designs
Beko Intelligent Guidance (UX) reimagines the appliance support experience entirely. Integrated into the HomeWhiz app, it provides instant, intuitive assistance, eliminating the need for manuals or online searches. Covering washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, and dryers, the system delivers clear notifications, step-by-step guidance and proactive care recommendations, making everyday maintenance simple and seamless. While offering Intelligent Guidance care support, it also presents relevant Beko-approved maintenance products within the same journey, enabling one-click access to the appropriate care solutions and helping appliances maintain their day-one performance with ease.
Beko 36 Inch Multi Door Refrigerator transforms everyday food storage into a wellness and lifestyle companion. The refrigerator has a minimalist aesthetic to complement a contemporary kitchen. Innovative features include silent ice making, vitamin-preserving HarvestFresh™ technology, and seamless Aeroflow™ cooling to keep food fresher for longer.
Hitachi Skyline Side By Side Refrigerator blends quality with high performance. It was recognised for its sleek design language, hidden illumination, and ergonomic storage. It offers smart connectivity, vacuum preservation, and customisable cooling zones to keep food fresher for longer.
Beko Coffee Experto V4 (UI). Personalisation is at the heart of Beko's Coffee Experto. The machine features a minimalist interface and intuitive connected design to streamline the brewing process. The appliance offers barista-level coffees with an easy-to-use interface.
Since 1954, the iF DESIGN AWARD has served as a symbol of outstanding design. For Beko, these four wins add to a growing portfolio of international recognition that includes the #1 spot in the Corporate Knights Global 100 for the household durables industry, seven consecutive years as industry leader in the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment, and two innovations featured in TIME's Best Inventions 2025.
