You throw away 47 kg of food every year.

September 1, 2022

Edible food, mind you. It's unfortunate when it's so easy to do something about it. One of the best investments you can make in your kitchen is to acquire a Liebherr refrigerator with BioFresh. This way, you reduce both food waste and save money.

Liebherr's quality refrigerators with BioFresh technology provide your food with optimal conditions, extending shelf life, preserving taste, avoiding food waste, and saving you money. What’s not to like?

But isn't a Liebherr refrigerator more expensive than a regular refrigerator? "Yes, on the day of purchase, but a regular refrigerator without the right technology will be significantly more expensive over the years – and with a Liebherr refrigerator, you will daily notice significantly more freshness and durability in your food," says Dennis Juelsgaard, Product Manager for Liebherr at Witt A/S. "In fact, you also save time because you don't have to shop as often." Did you know, by the way, that all functional parts in a Liebherr cabinet are tested for a minimum of 15 years of use?

Thursday, September 29, is Denmark's national Food Waste Day, and Liebherr is further focusing on their patented BioFresh system, which helps significantly reduce food waste.

Facts about food waste*:

  • A family of 4 in Denmark throws away food worth an average of 7200 DKK per year
  • Each Dane throws away 47 kg of food every year
  • If food waste were a country, it would be the 3rd largest climate offender - only surpassed by the USA and China.

Liebherr: For over 65 years, Liebherr has been producing quality refrigerators that consistently take the top spot in tests worldwide. One of the reasons lies in their many unique, integrated technologies that keep food fresh for as long as possible. 

BioFresh is Liebherr's patented technology that ensures a constant temperature close to 0°C and perfect humidity, so nutrients are preserved much longer than in traditional refrigerators. The shelf life and freshness of most fruits and vegetables can be extended by storing them in a BioFresh drawer (except tomatoes). It has even been proven that the vitamin content in fruits and vegetables can increase.
