COWAY

As 2025 comes to a close, Coway reflects on a year characterized by purposeful innovation, global recognition and continued progress toward sustainable growth. From expanding the company’s flagship product lineup through to receiving international design accolades and strengthening its Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) performance, this year has certainly marked another meaningful step in Coway’s journey as the “Best Life Solution Company”.   Rounding Out a Flagship Lineup Tailored to Everyday Life In 2025, Coway deepened its leadership in environmental home appliances with meaningful innovations in its core water and air purifier lineup, reflecting the company’s fundamental approach to innovation, one that balances design, performance and consumer trust equally.   Coway’s Icon Ice Water Purifier Mini Lineup   One of the highlights of this year’s advancements was the completion of the new Icon Ice Water Purifier series, comprised of Mini, Standard and Max models. Designed to meet a diverse range of household needs, the expanded lineup now spans compact to large-capacity sizing options, all while maintaining Coway’s signature minimalist aesthetic and featuring the company’s leading advanced filtration performance. With their seamless integration of ice-making capabilities and refined, elegant design, each model in the new Icon series sets a new standard in the ice-making water purifier category and further strengthens Coway’s competitive position within the market.   Coway’s NOBLE 2 Air Purifier Lineup Coway also elevated its premium air purifier portfolio in 2025 with the launch of the NOBLE 2.0 Air Purifier series. Equipped with a four-sided 4D filter, the NOBLE 2.0 delivers 360-degree air purification, efficiently circulating clean air throughout spaces of up to 133㎡. Its refined square tower design and nature-inspired color options reflect Coway’s design philosophy, seamlessly integrating advanced performance with sophisticated aesthetics to enhance everyday living environments. Earning Global Recognition Through Design and Corroborating Customer Trust Coway’s product design philosophy continued to gain international recognition throughout 2025 as the company swept all four major global design awards: the iF Design Award , the Red Dot Design Award , the International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA) and the Good Design Awards . These achievements serve as a testament to Coway’s ongoing emphasis on design that puts the user first, as well as the company’s leadership in global design innovation.   Coway Is Recognized at the 2025 Korean Standard Service Quality Index   Alongside its continued design prowess, Coway also achieved recognition from several of South Korea’s leading customer satisfaction and brand trust-related awards this year, including from such representative Korean customer satisfaction indices as the Korean Standard Service Quality Index (KS-SQI) and the National Customer Satisfaction Index (NCSI). Such acknowledgement only further goes to reaffirm Coway’s long-standing reputation for quality and reliability not just in the eyes of the industry, but from the perspective of consumers, too.   Championing ESG as a Core Business Principle   Children from the Netmarble Puruni Daycare Center Take Part in A Coway River Plogging Campaign   In 2025, Coway further strengthened its commitment to sustainable management by securing an A rating in an ESG evaluation conducted by the Korea Corporate Governance Service (KCGS).   This recognition reflects Coway’s ongoing undertakings across environmental initiatives, social responsibility programs and governance transparency. So as to reinforce its ESG management framework, Coway established an ESG committee in 2021 and published its landmark 20th Sustainability Report earlier this year. Looking ahead, Coway remains determined in its focus to embed key ESG principles across all of its long-term strategies in order to ensure growth that is as responsible as it is resilient.   A Year of Progress Across Markets In 2025, Coway did not just see momentum in the scale of its product innovation and the number of awards it received; the company’s growing global footprint and local engagement in markets around the world also saw expansion.   Coway’s Airmega Mighty is named Best Air Purifier for the 10th Year In a Row by Wirecutter In Malaysia, Coway Malaysia marked its 19th anniversary by hosting the Coway Innovation Fest, an immersive event celebrating nearly two decades of growth in the region and showcasing the very latest product categories to be launched in the local market. Meanwhile, in the U.S., the Coway Airmega Mighty (AP-1512HH) achieved the milestone of having been named Wirecutter’ s Best Air Purifier for 10 years in a row, and in Thailand, Coway brought the local community together by hosting the inaugural Coway Run, which saw more than 3,000 participants come together to strengthen community connections and underscore the brand’s expanding presence in the region.  Together, these achievements demonstrate Coway’s evolving role as a global wellness brand. As Coway moves into 2026, the company remains focused on deepening its innovation capabilities, enhancing customer experiences and advancing sustainable growth across all the markets that it operates in. Thanks to the solid foundation built by the company and its consumers alike throughout 2025, Coway is well-positioned to continue shaping healthier living for users worldwide in the New Year.  

- Three additional Coway Airmega models have been recognised by the National Asthma Council Australia for their potential to benefit those living with asthma and allergies. - Special Boxing Day Deals will be available for selected Coway Airmega air purifiers on Amazon Australia from December 24th to 30th. SYDNEY, Australia, December 23, 2025 –  For the millions of Australians living with asthma or seasonal allergies, summer isn’t just about making the most of long, sunny days. It also marks the height of hay fever season, and in Southern Australia, the drier climate during late spring and summer significantly amplifies the risk of bushfires. With allergy and asthma symptoms often peaking at this time of year, many Australians are turning to air purifiers as an effective way to keep the air in their homes clean. By capturing airborne pollen, allergens and other irritants, air purifiers help create more comfortable indoor environments. Coway, South Korea’s leading wellness tech company, announced today that their Airmega 350, 100 and 50 models have been newly recognised under the Sensitive Choice program by the National Asthma Council Australia . Products carrying the Sensitive Choice logo have been assessed and approved by the National Asthma Council Australia for their potential to improve the lives of people with asthma or allergies. Four of Coway’s Airmega models – the Airmega Mighty and the Airmega 150, 250 and 400 – have already received approval from the Sensitive Choice program, and this latest addition of three further models serves to strengthen Coway’s commitment to providing Australians with a wide range of options geared towards healthier indoor living. The Airmega models to most recently receive approval under the Sensitive Choice program provide options for a wide range of room sizes and air purification needs:   Airmega 350: Ideal for large areas such as offices and commercial spaces, the Airmega 350 purifies spaces up to 182m² in size in just 60 minutes. Its aerodynamic blades deliver high-volume airflow through controlled vortices for stablised, efficient performance. Airmega 100 : A compact, cylindrical model with 360° air intake, the Airmega 100 can clean the air in a 63m² space once every hour. Weighing only 3kg and standing just 39.5cm tall, it is ideal for apartments, bedrooms, nurseries and similar smaller living spaces. Airmega 50 : Small yet powerful, the Airmega 50 is equipped with a full 360° filtration system capable of serving rooms up to 31 m² in size in just one hour. The most compact model in the series, weighing just 1.6 kg and standing 32 cm tall, it can easily be moved between rooms. All three models are equipped with Coway’s proprietary 3-stage HEPA filtration system capable of removing 99.999% of nano-sized particles down to 0.01 microns – smaller than most allergens, bacteria, mould and pollen – and efficiently reducing smoke and other unpleasant odours for healthier and fresher indoor air. Additional features and functionalities of Coway’s Airmega models include:   Real-Time Air Quality Indicator (AQI) : A colour-coded display that provides users with easy oversight of their indoor air quality. Smart Auto & Sleep Mode : Smart Auto Mode automatically adjusts airflow based on air quality, while Sleep Mode ensures lower noise and reduced lighting for undisturbed rest. Easy Maintenance : A convenient indicator reminds users when it’s time to replace filters.

Observed annually around the globe on December 3, the International Day of People with Disabilities (IDPD) shines a spotlight on the importance of building inclusive, equitable and diverse societies. The theme of 2025’s IDPD, “Fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress”, is centered around growing community awareness, understanding and acceptance of those with disabilities to build a better future, together. Every year, IDPD encourages organizations worldwide to reflect on their role in creating environments where everyone is able to thrive. For Coway, the “Best Life Solution Company”, the matter of the inclusion of persons with disabilities is not merely a symbolic gesture tied to a single day; it is a continuous commitment rooted in the core belief that equitable opportunities enable individuals to enhance their well-being, confidence and social participation. Through ongoing support for disabled sports programs and cultural activities, Coway is contributing to a more inclusive ecosystem for people with disabilities in the company’s home country of South Korea. Championing Ability: The Coway Blue Wheels   The Coway Blue Wheels, Winners of the 2024 Korean Wheelchair Basketball League Championship Arguably the most well-known of the company’s efforts towards promoting disability inclusion, the Coway Blue Wheels, led by former national player Head Coach Youngmoo Kim, brings together many of the sport’s leading athletes, and is currently the only corporate-sponsored wheelchair basketball team in South Korea. With Coway providing sports equipment, training facilities and welfare support, athletes are able to focus on their performance in exceptional and dependable environments. The Coway Blue Wheels have won a total of 11 domestic and international wheelchair basketball competitions to date, rising to the prestigious position of being the top-ranked team in their league. Most recently, the team claimed victory in the 2025 Korean Wheelchair Basketball League’s regular season, further solidifying its reputation as a model for corporate engagement in disabled sports programs.   Students Participate in the Coway Cup Youth Wheelchair Basketball Competition Beyond their own athletic achievements, the Coway Blue Wheels also play a meaningful role in the socio-educational sphere. The team regularly visits schools and universities across South Korea, providing students with firsthand experiences that foster understanding and break down preconceived stereotypes about disabilities. This year, Coway also hosted its inaugural Coway Cup Youth Wheelchair Basketball Competition, with six local high school teams made up of both disabled and non-disabled students participating. The event not only encouraged inclusive sportsmanship among the high school students, but also helped cultivate a culture where diversity is appreciated, celebrated and championed. Amplifying Voices: Mulbitsori Choir In tandem to the company’s sporting initiatives, Coway also founded the Mulbitsori Choir in 2022 in order to provide visually impaired individuals with more creative opportunities. The choir’s name, ‘Mulbitsori’, contains a special meaning within itself; the beautiful melody (‘sori’ in Korean) of the choir is created as Coway’s representative symbol, clear water (‘mul’), comes together with the illuminating light (‘bit’) of the talented singers.  People with disabilities often have limited platforms through which to express their talents; the Mulbitsori Choir was created to change that. The choir offers members a space to develop their musical skills, build their confidence and share their artistry with wider audiences, thus transforming existing perceptions of disability through the power of performance.   Coway’s Mulbitsori Choir Performs at the 2nd Annual Mulbitsori Recital The Mulbitsori Choir has appeared on numerous regional and national stages, delivering moving performances that highlight both the skill and the spirit of its choristers. In 2025, Mulbitsori Choir earned top honors at South Korea’s 33rd National Choral Festival with the Disabled, a milestone that underscored the group’s excellence and growing potential. Coway also hosts its own annual Mulbitsori Choir recital, inviting company employees along with the community at large to experience the choir’s music and engage in artistic inclusion for its social, as well as its creative, value. A Long-Term CSR Vision Rooted in Empowerment Coway’s programs for the inclusion of persons with disabilities demonstrate the company’s dedication to sustainable, long-term support – not just short-term sponsorship. Through the provision of established environments where athletes and performers can train, grow and challenge themselves, Coway is enabling such groups to pursue their higher goals and take on new opportunities with confidence. This commitment mirrors Coway’s broader Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) mission, “Good Wave for People & Environment”. Known worldwide for its innovations in the clean water and air sectors, Coway also prioritizes wider social value by championing communities that are often overlooked. Through its support for disabled sports programs and artistic activities, the company is continuing its goal to contribute to a future where people with disabilities can participate fully, creatively and independently in society.   A Lunchtime Concert by Coway’s Mulbitsori Choir Engages Members of the Local Community As Coway continues to expand its inclusivity-based initiatives, it aims to deepen community engagement, broaden opportunities for youth participation and highlight the continued achievements of the Coway Blue Wheels and Mulbitsori Choir. By elevating stories of perseverance, talent and collaboration, Coway maintains that true inclusion is more than just a corporate social contribution strategy; it is a path to building a society wherein everyone is able to thrive.
