Upgrade your kitchen and keep food fresh with XTREME Cool Side-by-Side Inverter Refrigerator

Tweet

In the past years, innovations in home appliances have changed our lives considerably. The latest trends in home appliances aim to transform our households into a more versatile abode and a space for comfort and efficiency. XTREME Appliances, known for bringing innovations and quality home appliance products, has been taking notes on how to simplify our day-to-day life while inspiring a modern way of living, thus launching a new product under XTREME Cool solutions — the XTREME Cool Side-by-side Inverter Refrigerator (XCOOL-SideBySide20IG).

The COVID-19 pandemic has reshaped the way we perceive the importance of technology. With most of the people confined to their homes, working remotely and home-schooling, the human’s dependency on technology, especially on home appliances and consumer electronics, has risen. The efficiency of our appliances can help us survive this stressful and overwhelming lifestyle of this new normal. Luckily, XTREME Appliances introduces this new product that makes every home smart and convenient.

XTREME COOL Side-by-side Inverter Refrigerator (XCOOL-SIDEBySIDE20IG)

With people cooking at home more than ever, the demand for food storage space has risen exponentially. Refrigerators keep our food from spoiling, provide cool beverages in the middle of summer heat, and help limit our trip to the grocery store, which is being encouraged due to the rising COVID-19 cases in the country. The 19.8 cu. ft. XTREME COOL Side-by-Side Inverter Refrigerator (XCOOL-SIDEBySIDE20IG) is the ultimate choice for a spacious, convenient, and efficient way of preserving the freshness of our food. This boasts a combination of elegant and novel appearance and innovatively powerful technology for the modern Filipino lifestyle.

 

This two-door refrigerator delivers tons of storage spaces, adjustable shelves and compartments, capacious fruits and vegetable crisper drawers, as well as bright LED lights to let you see what’s tucked away. It has a no-frost feature that does not require defrosting and is able to limit the formation of mildew or odors inside the refrigerator. This new refrigerator comes with a digital touch panel on the door that allows you to adjust temperatures and settings easily with a simple touch without having to open the refrigerator door. This helps save energy by retaining the cooling.

Compared to a refrigerator unit that has a regular compressor, the XTREME COOL Side-by-Side Refrigerator is powered with an inverter compressor, saving about 25% electricity consumption. This enables the unit to operate according to the temperature in the refrigerator — runs at full speed when it needs cooling down and stops completely when the temperature is low enough.

Moreover, it is an environmentally friendly product as the freon-free refrigerant and foaming insulation materials are used for the fridge freezer, causing no damage to the ozone layer and having a minimal impact on global warming.

XTREME COOL Side-by-side Inverter Refrigerator is priced at Php 47, 995.

Tweet

Following the announcement of his 2021 BRIT Award nomination for Best British Single on the Raye-featured track called “SECRET,” Kosovan DJ and producer Regard has shared his brand new single ‘You’ with Troye Sivan and Tate McRae via Ministry of Sound.

Sophisticated, euphoric and effortlessly sultry, the ‘80s-inspired anthem flirts between Troye and Tate’s ethereal and confessional lyricism, singing, “When I talk to my friends, I talk about you. When the Hennessy’s strong, all I see is you.”

Speaking on the new track, Regard shares enthusiasm that ‘You’ is finally being released. “The entire song gives me wavy emotions with the angelic vocals from Tate and Troye.”

Canadian singer-songwriter Tate McRae also had an amazing experience working with Regard and Troye on this effortlessly solid club thumper. Tate adds, “It’s a totally different vibe than any of my usual songs, but still has the emotional and lyrical depth that I always try to write.”

With a BRIT Award nomination under his belt alongside leading one of 2021’s biggest collabs so far with two of the world’s most in demand figures in pop, Regard is quickly generating a global buzz and not so quietly cementing his status as a renowned force in music.

About Regard

Regard garnered global attention with his debut single ‘Ride It’ in 2019, which became an international hit, taking the internet and TikTok by storm, and quickly followed it up with his second BRIT award nominated hit single ‘Secrets’ featuring South London singer RAYE. He has gone on to achieve over 10x Top 10 single chart placements globally, and in the UK, ‘Ride It’ has sold over 1 million records to date (2x Platinum), while ‘Secrets’ was recently certified Platinum. Regard has amassed 2.2 billion combined streams and 9 million worldwide sales.

About Tate McRae

On the rise singer/songwriter/dancer Tate McRae is a platinum-selling artist with over 1.8 billion career streams with over 3.3 million subscribers and nearly 500 million video views on YouTube. She was listed on Forbes 30 Under 30 List for 2021 as the youngest musician on the list as well as Apple Up Next For March 2021, YouTube’s Artist On The Rise, and MTV’s Push Artist For July 2020. Mixing her vocal ability and intimate lyrics with her unparalleled dance moves, Tate performed her breakout single, “you broke me first” on the MTV’s European Music Awards, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and the VMA’s Pre-Show.

In his career to date, Troye Sivan has amassed over 8.4 billion combined global streams. His sophomore album, ‘Bloom’ (Capitol Records), was named as one of the best albums of 2018 by critics at Rolling Stone, The Guardian, USA Today, Billboard, OUT, NPR Music and numerous other publications, with TIME saying “Troye Sivan is the perfect pop star.” His numerous awards include a Billboard Music Awards trophy, three MTV Europe Music awards and two GLAAD Media wins. His collaboration ‘Revelation’ – with Jónsi for the film Boy Erased, which Troye co-starred in – was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Original Song – Motion Picture and shortlisted for an Oscar. ‘Louder Than Bombs’, a track Troye Sivan co-wrote, is also featured on the new BTS album, Map of The Soul:7, which debuted at #1 in the U.S., Korea, Australia and around the world.

“Evoking her peers Phoebe Bridgers, Sharon Van Etten and Angel Olsen…fast proving herself as one of the genre’s brightest prospects” The Line Of Best Fit 

“Explores the lasting impact of youthful hedonism and friendship with the kind of surgical precision that only hindsight can engender” The Fader

“There’s a new indie kid on the block” Gigwise

“Hype List 2021” Dork

Marking the latest instalment from the musician’s growing collection of relatable and heartfelt pop anthems, ‘Cheer Captain’ sees Adams wave goodbye to a youth spent in a deeply conservative, Christian environment in Alabama where she put cheerleading, worship leading, her family and often toxic relationships with men (and God) above all.

“‘Cheer Captain’ is a resentful and regretful song about struggling with a saviour complex as a serial people pleaser”, explains the rising songwriter. “I desperately wanted to be everything for everyone so I became a customizable human being that often went against everything I actually am. It’s always felt like the thesis of this project as I touch on my relationship with religion, my parents, and men.

I grew up in Alabama and I was captain of the cheerleading team in my freshman year of high school and a worship leader at a church. I think it’s safe to say I was struggling with my identity, in fact I really hated it all so a year later, I started school online and moved to Nashville for music”.

With this relocation essentially kickstarting her musical career, Adams’ momentum has certainly gathered pace in recent months, earning substantial praise throughout the press landscape (NPR, The Fader, Billboard, The Line Of Best Fit, Dork, Gigwise) as she carves her own spot within the alt-rock sphere alongside contemporaries such as Phoebe Bridgers, Julia Jacklin and Sharon Van Etten.

Having already unveiled evocative lead single ‘Didn’t Make It’, and pulsating follow-up ‘Maybe Could Have Loved’ from ‘Bullseye’, an album title inspired by a nickname Justin Vernon gave her playing darts following a chance encounter at a Nashville dive bar, ‘Cheer Captain’ exemplifies the newcomer’s boundless potential amidst an ongoing search for her true identity, and provides a firm indication of what to expect from her upcoming record.

Mixed by Patrick Dilett (St. Vincent, David Byrne, Sufjan Stevens), Charli Adams’ ‘Cheer Captain’ is out April 14^th via Color Study (Haux, Lav, Rosie Carney) and will be available on all digital platforms.

Shopee Supports Eco-Friendly Brands in Time for Earth Day

Shopee shares how Messy Bessy, Unilever, and Klean Kanteen Philippines advocate for a sustainable future through different initiatives

Every year, people celebrate Earth Day to raise global awareness and inspire millions of individuals to take action to protect the environment. As part of the international efforts to drive action among the community, Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, launched Shop Green to encourage Filipinos to support sustainable products through Shop Green, an online sale from April 19 to 25. 

In 2015, the General Assembly adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which listed responsible consumption and production, climate action, and sustainable cities and communities as part of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, most nations are still far from reaching these goals, with the Philippines ranked 99th out of the 166 countries in terms of progress towards achieving these objectives.

Committed to creating a sustainable future, brands like Klean Kanteen Philippines, Messy Bessy, and Unilever are pushing for sustainable operations and actively choosing to  use organic materials as steps towards building a better and healthier planet. Therefore, Shopee launched its Shop Green campaign to support these brands in their advocacy for a more sustainable and eco-friendly lifestyle.

Klean Kanteen Philippines

At Klean Kanteen Philippines, environmental responsibility is an ongoing journey that involves constant research on how to source better and more eco-friendly materials. The brand’s mission is to create durable, versatile, and affordable products for its consumers, and encourage the switch to drinking bottles that are more environmentally sustainable. Klean Kanteen Philippines saw Shopee’s extensive growth as a testament to the platform’s commitment to innovate and adapt to changing consumer needs. Through Shopee,  consumers can easily purchase their favorite Klean Kanteen bottles and join the movement to stop single-use habits. 

According to Klean Kanteen Philippines, “We don't just make bottles. We create solutions for social change.  We work hard to design durable, versatile and affordable products that can last a lifetime and replace mountains of single-use waste. Our partnership with Shopee allows us to tell our story and start important conversations with more consumers.”

Klean Kanteen Philippines is committed to donating 1% of their annual sales to organizations they believe in every single year. 

Messy Bessy 

Messy Bessy is a line of plant-derived home and personal care products. The social enterprise aims to change the world, one sustainable product at a time. By developing eco-friendly products made from organic ingredients, the brand creates sustainable livelihoods for Filipino students, at-risk youths, and abused young adults to help stop the cycle of poverty. All of their products make use of cleaning agents that are found in nature, such as deriving ethyl alcohol from sugar cane. Their surface cleaners, all-purpose scrubs, and liquid detergents also do not have harmful chemicals. 

 

The company is growing at a rapid pace and there is a demand for more convenient access to their products. By partnering with Shopee, Messy Bessy was able to reach more buyers nationwide, especially those looking for affordable, easily accessible, and effective environmentally friendly products. 

Krie Reyes-Lopez, CEO and Founder of Messy Bessy, said, “We believe that being mindful of the environment and its sustainability is important. Partnering with Shopee truly helped us expand our e-commerce business and allowed us to reach people nationwide. With Shopee’s coin cashback and free shipping promotions, our clients find it easier to purchase our refill bottles and this allows us to use less plastic bottles. Currently, we have collection points in our Metro Manila kiosks for these bottles since we are able to recycle and reuse them.”

Unilever’s Love Beauty & Planet
In 2019, Unilever brought its Love Beauty & Planet initiative to the Philippines, in line with its commitment to do small acts of love to make consumers and the planet a little more beautiful, everyday. With Shopee, Unilever could reach more consumers, convincing them to be more eco-friendly and pro-planet with their products. Shop Green is aligned with Love Beauty & Planet’s purpose of enabling consumers to do more for themselves and the planet by providing a convenient platform to make more sustainable choices when purchasing products.

Isab Galang, Assistant Brand Manager for Love Beauty & Planet, Unilever Philippines, said, “Shop Green sheds light on how easy it can be to do more for the planet. Being a part of this campaign solidifies our brand’s commitment for a better, greener and more sustainable planet. Through this initiative, Love Beauty & Planet can reach more Filipinos and help them create #smallactsoflove with just one click.”

Shoppers can also look forward to brands like Forever 21, P&G’s Herbal Essences, and Colgate-Palmolive. To find out more about the campaign and to show your support for sustainable brands, visit  https://shopee.ph/m/shop-green from April 19 to 25, 2021.
