We all know that feeling of opening the fridge to find a pile of soggy and stale food.

Let’s face it: some types of fruit can last more than 40 days in the fridge, while vegetables usually expire in less than a week. When it comes to things like seafood, you definitely should plan to eat it the next day.

The average Australian heads to the supermarket once a week, which often results in “overshopping”. Basically, that means you buy a bunch of unnecessary items without really thinking them through.

This habit means we discard up to 20 percent of the food we buy, which equates to one out of every five bags of groceries purchased. It’s an inefficient and expensive way of operating.

We all need fresh food. It’s delicious and nutritious and allows our bodies to flourish.

As such, in order to get the most out of it, it means we have to store it in the more effective and efficient way possible to stop it losing its crunch and flavour.

That’s where Liebherr comes in. Its patented BioFresh technology outperforms its conventional counterparts by slowing down the aging process of things like fruit, vegetables, fish, meat and dairy products. The new BioFresh technology allows Australian families to store their groceries at just above zero. By storing produce just above the freezing point, things like fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, dairy, fish and seafood last longer.

Liebherr’s high-quality fridges and freezers have the mark of reliability and longevity that comes with more than 60 years worth of sophisticated German design and innovation. Its range of sophisticated products and services is continually evolving, always with the highest level of customer satisfaction in mind. Thanks to innovative technologies and high-quality materials, its appliances are both convenient and energy-efficient.

Liebherr products take away the challenge to remember which temperatures are best suited for our groceries, with marking food type icons on its BioFresh and BioFreshPlus draws. No two fridges are the same, because no two families are the same. The design allows you to select the fridge/freezer best suited to your lifestyle and family’s needs. All products also come with an easy-to-use overview and technology guide.

Flexibility is another huge asset of Liebherr fridges. VarioSpace and VarioSpace technology allows you to modify the configuration and free-up extra storage space quickly depending on your needs.

The other huge benefit to Liebherr fridges and freezers is the fact you can choose a model to suit your kitchen. Appliances can be freestanding or integrated, and you can choose from BlackSteel, stainless steel or integrated finishes that seamlessly blend into your home.
