Midea Builds Momentum for European Built-In Cooking Strategy Following SpaceMaster’s IFA 2026 Debut

BERLIN, GERMANY - Media OutReach Newswire - 10 September 2026 - Following the debut of its SpaceMaster Built-in Oven Series at IFA 2026, Midea concluded its Berlin showcase with live cooking demonstrations and a clearer roadmap for the future of its built-in cooking business in Europe.

Midea Builds Momentum for European Built-In Cooking Strategy Following SpaceMaster’s IFA 2026 Debut

At IFA, the SpaceMaster Series put two technologies at the center of Midea's cooking showcase: temperatures of up to 350°C and Graphene Turbo Hot Air technology. On Midea's Culinary Stage in Hall 5.1, Michelin-starred chefs used the built-in ovens to prepare dishes live, demonstrating how high-temperature cooking and fast thermal response could translate from technical specifications into real culinary applications.

During an onsite Q&A at Messe Berlin, Midea executives also explained why pizza was selected as a key proof point for the SpaceMaster Series. Pizza places several demands on an oven at once, requiring intense heat, fast thermal response and precise temperature control to achieve a crisp exterior without burning. Midea positioned the 350°C pizza application as a way to address consumer expectations for shorter preheating times and restaurant-quality results at home.

At the core of the SpaceMaster Series is Midea's Graphene Turbo Hot Air technology. The graphene heating element has a thermal response time of as little as 0.2 seconds, while the oven supports cooking temperatures of up to 350°C. Midea also re-engineered the thermal system, airflow and control algorithms as part of its broader approach to high-performance built-in cooking.

Beyond the technologies demonstrated at IFA, Midea outlined how SpaceMaster fits into its longer-term European product roadmap. Graphene is expected to serve as a common technology thread across its future premium built-in cooking portfolio. Plans include extending the technology to steam-combi models tailored for European artisanal bread baking, followed by space-saving compact formats for urban apartments.

This roadmap reflects Midea's "design for Europe from Europe" approach. Its European R&D team leads local user research, engineering and compliance while collaborating with global R&D teams to translate regional cooking habits and kitchen requirements into product development.

Midea has set an ambition to become one of Europe's top-three cooking brands within five years, spanning built-in ovens and freestanding cookers. Following its IFA 2026 showcase, the SpaceMaster Series is planned for market launch in 2027.
