LG Introduced Innovative Total Home Solutions at KBIS and IBS 2025
LG Electronics showcased its cutting-edge residential space solutions at the 2025 Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS) and 2025 International Builders’ Show (IBS), which took place in Las Vegas from 25 to 27 February 2025.
As a regular exhibitor at KBIS and a first-time participant at IBS – the world’s largest annual light construction tradeshow – LG introduced a range of innovative products and solutions designed to meet the evolving needs of home designers and builders in the American market. Aligned with America’s latest lifestyle and housing trends, LG’s offerings combined thoughtful design with cutting-edge technologies.
At KBIS 2025, LG aimed to captivate and inspire attendees with its rebranded SKS (SIGNATURE KITCHEN SUITE) ultra-premium built-in kitchen solutions. Visitors experienced the passion and authenticity behind SKS’s True to Food philosophy through the brand’s latest innovations, including the SKS 36-inch Cook-zone-free Induction Pro Range and the revolutionary Island System concept.
Executive Chef Nick Ritchie, from the SKS Experience & Design Center in Napa Valley, Calif., hosted live culinary demonstrations featuring the SKS Pro Range and Combi Wall Oven. These cutting-edge appliances feature Gourmet AI™, which analyses available ingredients and suggests optimal recipes and cooking modes for an elevated cooking experience.
The SKS showcase also highlighted “Technicurean” concept kitchens – where culinary expertise meets advanced technology. Designed for different facets of the Technicurean lifestyle, these kitchens seamlessly integrate SKS’s latest innovations, including the 24-inch column wine cellar with LG ThinQ™-enabled wine curation and the stylish SKS Transitional package.
Maximising Space, Energy Efficiency and Everyday Convenience
Beyond SKS, LG’s KBIS exhibit presented a range of premium LG-branded solutions designed exclusively for the U.S. market. Visitors explored high-capacity, high-efficiency appliances across four dedicated zones – Zero Clearance, Zero Gas, Zero Venting and Zero Inefficiency – and experienced seamless connectivity and personalised comfort enabled by the LG AI Home hub, ThinQ ON™, and smart life solutions including ThinQ UP™ and ThinQ Care™.
Emphasising the “Zero” theme, LG introduced innovations designed to optimise home spaces.

Showcasing the benefits of electrification, the Zero Gas Zone highlighted a variety of electric kitchen and laundry appliances, including induction cooktops and ovens.
