Panasonic has consolidated itself in the world market with important categories of home appliances. “We are managing to maintain the growth strategy in different segments, which makes us optimistic. We continue to invest in the expansion plan, looking at the needs of consumers by bringing innovations to the market, helping them to lead a more practical and sustainable life. The pace of development is positive, and we expect steady progress in the years to come,” says Sergei Epof, Panasonic’s chief executive.

They have the Vanish Program to enhance the use of the stain remover, guaranteeing 20% more performance. The NA-F140B6W model, weighing 14 kg, has the Cyclone system, which does not require a central stirrer, Panasonic reuse functions (warns the time of draining for the consumer to store the water), and active foam (the soap dissolves before contacting clothes, avoiding residues or stains).
The water reuse function is also present in the 16 kg NA-F160B6W model, which has the AG antibacterial system, which eliminates 99.9% of bacteria proliferation. Another model, the NA-F170P6T, 17 kg, has the antibacterial system, titanium body and digital panel with white LED lighting, in which it is possible to identify the time left for the washing to finish, as well as customize and save a favorite show.
