Gonggong (CEO Lee Seon-an) received the Minister of Trade, Industry, and Energy Award at this year’s Invention Patent Exhibition, recognizing the company’s technological innovation.
Gonggong’s Swasher is a next-generation air purifier that replaces conventional HEPA filters with a water vortex system, significantly reducing resource consumption, waste production, and the vicious cycle of environmental pollution.
One of its standout features is the ease of maintaining the water filter. The water filter section has a transparent design, offering consumers a sense of trust and combining aesthetic and technological innovation by merging air purification with interior design appeal.
The product operates on a principle where air drawn into the purifier, along with dust particles, passes through air inlets located on both sides of the unit. Inside, the air interacts with the water vortex, causing dust to sink into the water, while purified air is released through the upper air outlets. The energy consumption is remarkably low, costing
just 450 KRW per month to operate continuously for 24 hours a day.
Gonggong has also been selected as a participant in the Korean Pavilion at CES 2022, the world’s largest IT product exhibition to be held next month in Las Vegas, USA, marking a major milestone in the company’s journey toward global expansion.
