Frost & Sullivan, a globally recognized market research firm, has awarded GREE Electric Appliances a certificate confirming that GREE ranked No. 1 globally by sales volume of premium residential air conditioners in 2025. This recognition is based on research into the global premium residential air conditioning market, measured by sales revenue from premium residential air conditioners in 2025.
According to Frost & Sullivan data, GREE's leading position in the premium segment is built upon comprehensive superiority in core product performance. Consumers in this segment do not pay merely for a higher price tag; instead, they choose products that offer superior usage experiences, durable and stable operation, and outstanding energy-saving performance. GREE's widespread recognition is rooted in its years of deep cultivation in energy efficiency, noise reduction, and comfortable airflow technologies, which have passed demanding user tests across diverse scenarios in different countries and regions.
To address harsh challenges posed by diverse global climates, GREE independently developed a matrix of core compressor technologies covering all climatic zones. The Timo series, equipped with G-Boost single-stage enthalpy-adding compressors, was developed for extremely hot regions like the Middle East, maintaining reliable operation at ambient temperatures up to 68℃, with non-declining cooling performance at 54℃. The Airy series pioneered the commercialization of ultra-wide frequency rotary compressors, enabling continuous heating for 10 hours without defrosting and improving seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) by 9.5% to 16.7%. The S-cool series, equipped with G-Hyper dual-cylinder two-stage compressors, was crafted for extremely cold regions such as Northern Europe and North America, operating stably within an ultra-wide temperature range of -40℃ to 54℃, achieving industry breakthroughs of non-declining heating at -25℃ and non-declining cooling at 46℃. These three compressor technologies provide all-climate comfort solutions for users in different climate belts through differentiated technical paths.
In key dimensions of user experience, GREE also addresses consumer pain points with hardcore technology. The newly launched 2026 Ai Silent King features GREE's self-developed AI energy-saving chip, paired with artificial intelligence algorithms, saving energy from the moment it is turned on and improving annual energy efficiency by 23%. Meanwhile, GREE's SilenzX series air conditioners achieve ultra-low sound pressure levels of just 29 dB(A) for the outdoor unit and 15 dB(A) for the indoor unit, far below the industry average. This achievement earned the Gold Medal at the 51st International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva, marking GREE's leadership in noise reduction technology globally.
From compressors to whole unit systems, from AI energy saving to quiet technology, GREE has built the core competitiveness of premium products through solid technological accumulation and continuous innovation breakthroughs. As of July, GREE holds 50 world-leading technologies. From residential air conditioners to central air conditioning systems, from single-refrigerant systems to solutions covering all climatic zones, GREE has constructed a complete, autonomous, and controllable technology matrix. This systemic innovative capability allows GREE to maintain rapid response and technical adaptation in the face of differentiated needs across global markets.
Currently, GREE products serve more than 190 countries and regions worldwide. By adhering to serving users with core technologies and high-quality service, GREE continues to meet people's pursuit of a better life. Honors are witnesses to the past, and innovation is the eternal coordinate. Standing at a new starting point, GREE Electric Appliances will continue to drive high-quality development through independent innovation, moving from scale leadership to value guidance, and from Chinese Manufacturing to Global Brand, thus achieving Made in China, Loved by the World.
