Press release

Bosch Green Collection now also includes ovens - smart cooking technology combined with materials that have a lower CO₂ footprint used in production

  • The Bosch Green Collection now includes ovens made with production materials that have a 20 percent lower carbon footprint compared to standard models [1].
  • The lower CO2 footprint is verified by a TÜV certification for Product Carbon Footprint.
  • The aluminium of the dark inox handle consists of over 85 percent recycled material.

Munich, Germany – Consumers today pay close attention to what they bring into their homes. Quality, durability and thoughtful design matter - as does how a product is made. Bosch responds to these expectations with the expansion of its Green Collection: with a built-in oven that delivers precise, reliable cooking results and is produced with materials that have a 20 percent lower carbon footprint than the conventional production materials used in comparable standard models [1]. This reduction in the CO2 footprint has been independently verified by a TÜV certification for Product Carbon Footprint – providing transparent, substantiated information for consumers and trade partners alike.

High quality made visible

The Green Collection Oven is immediately recognisable by its handle in the distinctive colour dark inox. The design sets a clear visual signal while maintaining the high-quality finish that Bosch home appliances are known for. The aluminium of the dark inox handle consists of over 85 percent recycled materials that have been collected and recycled after use by end-consumers. Compared to aluminium out of a standard process this leads to a reduction of the CO2footprint.

Smart cooking that takes the guesswork out

At the heart of the Green Collection oven are smart features, available via the Home Connect app [2], that make everyday cooking more precise and convenient. PerfectBake Plus automatically adjusts the settings to the specific type of baked goods and tells users how much time is left until the dish is ready, ensuring consistent results without manual intervention. PerfectRoast Plus does the same for meat: the integrated meat probe monitors the core temperature in real time and adapts the cooking process accordingly, so roasts always come out exactly right. For even more ease while cooking – whether preparing a family dinner or trying something new – users can turn to the Cooking Assistant. It can be used via voice control through the Home Connect app and suggests the right settings for the desired dish. Beyond the Cooking Assistant, the Home Connect app provides users with step-by-step guidance, remote monitoring and personalised recipe suggestions.

The Bosch Green Collection: more than just ovens

The new ovens complement a product family that Bosch is consistently expanding. The Green Collection already includes fridge-freezers with production materials that have a 50 percent lower carbon footprint compared to equivalent standard models [3] – achieved through the partial use of carbon-reduced steel and bio-based plastics. What unites all Green Collection appliances: verified and transparent CO₂ reductions in production for technology that delivers outstanding results in daily life.

[1] Compared to a comparable Bosch oven with conventional production material (HBG7764B1). Calculation of carbon footprint of production material (without packaging) based on ISO 14067. The CO₂ savings achieved through suppliers’ reduction projects within production processes are attributed to specific quantities delivered. In our production, the CO₂ reduced material is partly mixed with conventional material but is allocated to the Bosch Green Collection oven by calculation through mass balancing according to ISO 22095-2. This means that a mass balanced product may, in purely physical terms, contain less or even no CO₂-reduced materials. Verified and confirmed by TÜV Rheinland.

[2] Some of the functions can only be used if the appliance is connected to a Home Connect account and a SingleKey ID account via the internet. Home Connect is a service provided by Home Connect GmbH. Further information about Home Connect can be found at www.home-connect.com.
