Tuya Smart and Lock & Lock have collaborated to create smart appliances that deliver extraordinary experiences to consumers. The launch of this innovative smart appliance is in line with LocknLock's vision of becoming an innovator that changes the way people live. Notably, the firm has been upgrading its portfolio with a full array of new offerings from dining utensils and cookware to small appliances with an eye to providing consumers with a wider range of quality products and services.

Both products and services stem from life: LocknLock's focus on product quality, safety and consumer care services, the brand has received numerous awards in the traditional tableware and cookware markets while delivering strong performance in terms of innovation in electric appliances. The recognitions include the Red Dot Award, the Gold Award for the favorite kitchenware brands among households in the UK, and the first prize for sealed container brands in the Korea Brand Power Index (17 years in a row). Furthermore, the firm has recorded impressive sales of electric appliances in Korea and throughout Southeast Asia where the brand has become synonymous with high quality small appliances.

During the shopping festival in Vietnam, the company ranked second in all product categories following Apple, and took first place among small appliance and living brands. With the increasing demand for healthier and smarter electric appliances, major household appliance brands worldwide have begun to develop smart appliance lineups.

Given this scenario, LocknLock has also embarked on intelligent transformation by leveraging the increasing popularity of its electric appliances among at-home chefs in order to meet the expectations of both international markets and global consumers. LocknLock mentioned two key points when talking about what kind of smart appliances it plans to create: on the one hand, in addition to performance, delivering an excellent customer experience is key - the firm would focus on details by making sure that using the appliance is intuitive so that the user can easily figure out how to start using the smart appliance the minute it has been removed from the packaging. For example, a smart appliance should be designed to make it easy for the user to connect it to the app for the first time; on the other hand, it is essential for the firm to value responsiveness and practicality.

The user would certainly be less inclined to use a product if he or she finds it difficult to operate or to get in touch with support services even if it has outstanding smart features. In order to create smart appliances based on the concept of both products and services stemming from life, LocknLock chose to collaborate with Tuya Smart as the like-minded partner is capable of helping the firm create products that meet the expectations of consumers. Providing global consumers with smart appliances that deliver pleasant experiences: Built on its success and years of experience in the global market coupled with its deep understanding of consumer needs, LocknLock put forward clear requirements to Tuya Smart in terms of intelligence: convenient of use, smooth operation and practicality.

With the intelligent transformation, the household goods manufacturer has created barriers to rivals by developing smart appliances with competitive advantages. Tuya's IoT development platform provides many low- and zero-code solutions that have reduced LocknLock's development costs and time. In addition, Tuya Smart has empowered LocknLock to seize and leverage the emerging opportunities in a timely manner by developing new smart products rapidly.

For example, with a spike in sales of small appliances due to the Covid-19 pandemic, LocknLock launched several new products, including the LocknLock Smart Steam Air Fryer. LocknLock plans to further expand its product portfolio in a move to provide at-home chefs with convenient and personalized smart appliances that help make tasty food. By relying on the Tuya IoT development platform with its app development capabilities, LocknLock has created an efficient, useful OEM app through which users can integrate and operate smart appliances.

Furthermore, LocknLock can flexibly and conveniently add features to the app at any time without the need to develop an app from scratch.
