Sep. 22, 2017

Aware​ ​of​ ​the​ ​hype​ ​surrounding​ ​new​ ​product​ ​launches​ ​from​ ​popular​ ​brands.​ IKEA​ found the​ ​perfect​ ​occasion​ ​to​ ​re-launch​ ​their​ ​wireless​ ​charging​ ​solutions.

The​ ​news​ ​are​ ​out​ ​there​ ​and​ ​we’re​ ​not​ ​the​ ​only​ ​ones​ ​to​ ​be​ ​excited.​ ​The​ ​latest​ ​iPhone models​ ​support​ ​wireless​ ​charging.​ ​Finally,​ ​the​ ​time​ ​is​ ​here​ ​when​ ​iPhone​ ​owners​ ​can make​ ​use​ ​of​ ​the​ ​multi-functional​ ​RIGGAD​ ​–​ ​your​ ​phone’s​ ​favorite​ ​lamp.

Already​ ​back​ ​in​ ​2015,​ ​IKEA​ ​released​ ​their​ ​first​ ​wireless​ ​chargers.​ ​With​ ​smartphones being​ ​such​ ​a​ ​natural​ ​part​ ​of​ ​our​ ​lives,​ ​they​ ​wanted​ ​charging​ ​them​ ​to​ ​become​ ​a​ ​natural part​ ​of​ ​our​ ​homes.​ ​That’s​ ​why​ ​they​ ​created​ ​a​ ​range​ ​of​ ​wireless​ ​chargers​ ​that​ ​make mobile​ ​charging​ ​a​ ​lot​ ​more​ ​accessible,​ ​yet​ ​a​ ​lot​ ​less​ ​obvious. 

Björn Block,​ ​Business Leader​ ​IKEA​ ​Home​ ​Smart​ ​at​ ​IKEA​ ​of​ ​Sweden, says:

We wanted to make charging a natural part of your home. Our lamps and side tables with integrated wireless charging are the most ambitious results of that effort. While our standalone charging pads cater to the curious newcomers.

 

Jeroen​ ​Hubert,​ ​Global​ ​marketing​ ​communication​ ​manager​ ​at​ ​IKEA​ ​Group, says​:

One of the main advantages of being a brand in the 21^st century are the opportunities given to us by digital outlets and social media. How we can react and take part of ongoing happenings around the world and create forums for discussion.

 

Morten​ ​Kjær,​ ​Creative​ ​Director​ ​at​ ​IKEA​ ​Creative​ ​Hub, ​says​:

IKEA has been very progressive with wireless charging, and we are thrilled that new iPhone owners finally can make use of one of the most powerful lamps we’ve ever made.

 

​Johan​ ​Holmgren,​ ​Creative​ ​Director​ ​at​ ​ACNE, says​:

Wireless charging has been around for a while. But as it’s getting increasingly democratised, we felt it was important to tap into the discussion. Bringing a relevant message about how technology helps us in our everyday and how IKEA tackles that in their products​​.

 

*The​ ​wireless​ ​chargers​ ​are​ ​available​ ​globally​ ​at​ ​your​ ​nearest​ ​IKEA​ ​store.
