Sound Engineered
Extensive sound design is carried out in a special laboratory
to identify noise levels and their acceptability to the ‘ear’ and
the impression they make. This research is then applied to all
Siemens washing machines to reduce noise levels by using
only sound reducing materials, extensive insulation and quality
components to ensure the only noise produced i s pleasing
to the ear.
Testing and Life Expectancy
All machines are 100 % tested duri ng production for safety,
function and noise. Door hinges and metal door catches were
tested to open a minimum of 20,000 times: that’s equal to 48
years use – one door was tested for up to 60,000 uses.
Washing machines conti nuously on te st in our factory 24
hours a day on 60°C cotton program me at maxim um spin
for up to 2,500 washes – that’s equivalent to 12 years usage.
98% of all components in our washing machines are recyclable.
