P&C Global Practices: Corporate Performance, Data Science, Strategy & Innovation
Dishwashing Technology Client Engagement Overview
P&C Global partnered with a leading home appliance manufacturer to drive product innovation in ease of maintenance and reliability, two critical factors in the highly competitive major appliance market. Consumers demand appliances that simplify household tasks, and dishwashers are no exception.
Through strategic collaboration, we helped introduce a self-cleaning dishwasher filter technology that significantly reduces consumer maintenance efforts while minimizing product support issues. The EvenClean™ Dishwasher Filter was engineered to provide hassle-free maintenance, leveraging advanced filtration and self-rinsing capabilities to prevent buildup and improve long-term dishwasher performance.
This innovation not only enhances user convenience but also reinforces the client’s commitment to durability and reliability in the kitchen appliance sector. By reducing the need for manual filter cleaning, EvenClean™ improves the dishwasher’s lifespan and maintains optimal performance, directly addressing key consumer pain points.
