Adopting a more mindful lifestyle also means paying attention to the choice of appliances and how they are used on a daily basis. Reducing food and energy waste is not only an ethical choice, but also an opportunity to optimize resources and improve the quality of home life.

The oven, refrigerator, and dishwasher are among the most important allies in the daily management of the kitchen. Using them properly not only helps reduce unnecessary consumption but also extends their lifespan and enhances their performance.

How to use appliances more efficiently

Oven and Hob

Latest-generation ovens and cooktops are equipped with advanced technologies that help reduce energy consumption while delivering high performance. Using them correctly ensures you can make the most of their potential.

With the Smeg Galileo ovens you can rely on automatic functions that help save time and energy while cooking tasty and healthy meals.

Choosing the right hob also makes a difference for a more mindful kitchen: induction hobs with ECO function allow for reduced energy consumption without compromising performance.

Choosing the right refrigerator

When choosing a refrigerator, it's essential to consider features that help reduce environmental impact. For example, opting for models with a high energy rating, or selecting a fridge that matches the actual size needs of your household.

Some of the most innovative models are even made with recycled components.

Washing Dishes

Using resources mindfully in the kitchen also means paying attention to water consumption when washing dishes. Properly loading the dishwasher and choosing the most efficient times to run the programs helps maximize its efficiency.

Smeg dishwashers support sustainable living at home with intelligent programs that optimize both consumption and performance.
For example, the Auto program automatically adjusts temperature and cycle duration based on the level of dirt, while the Eco program minimizes water and energy use. These features, along with options like Green Express for even more efficient cycles, make Smeg dishwashers an eco-friendly and practical choice for everyday life.

Creative and Sustainable Cooking

Sustainability in the kitchen goes beyond choosing the right appliances and using them properly. It also means making the most of your ingredients, storing them carefully, and reinventing them in creative recipes that respect both food and the environment, without sacrificing flavor.
