“The introduction of air conditioners, switches and sockets is an important part of this journey. As we expand our portfolio, we are also focused on making our products more accessible and strengthening the ways in which we engage with and serve our customers across different segments and channels. We believe this broader approach will enable us to deliver greater convenience and value while building a stronger and more meaningful relationship with our customers,” she said.
Delmege Air Conditioners Designed for Performance and Efficiency
At the centre of the latest expansion is Delmege Air Conditioners, a new range designed to provide powerful, efficient and reliable cooling for residential and commercial applications.
Available in capacities of 12,000, 18,000 and 24,000 BTU, the air conditioners combine advanced features with inverter technology to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures while supporting efficient energy consumption.
Designed to operate in demanding climatic conditions, the range offers Extreme Climate Cooling capability at temperatures of up to 55°C, alongside a 30-second rapid cooling function. Its I FEEL intelligent temperature-sensing technology detects the temperature around the remote control to help deliver greater comfort, while Vector Precision Air Supply is designed to optimise airflow for effective cooling.
The units also incorporate Gold Fin Technology to enhance durability and provide corrosion protection. Inverter technology, supported by intelligent Fuzzy Logic, adjusts operation according to cooling requirements, helping to improve energy efficiency and reduce electricity consumption.
Additional features include ECO Mode, Child Safety Lock, Auto Restart and GEN Mode, which supports stable operation during periods of limited power availability.
Customer-Focused After-Sales Support
Delmege Air Conditioners are backed by a customer-focused service offering that includes free installation for up to three metres of piping and three complimentary services during the first year.
The range also comes with a five-year warranty for the inverter compressor, providing customers with additional assurance and peace of mind.
Through the introduction of air conditioners, switches and sockets, Delmege Building Products continues to broaden its portfolio, strengthening its position in the building and lifestyle solutions market.
