New Sapphire Black Color Added! AQUA Launches New Models of 'VP Series' Fully Automatic Washing Machines

AQUA Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Du Jingguo) will release new models of the 'VP Series' fully automatic washing machines (Model numbers: AQW-VP14B and 4 others) on June 11, 2026. These machines feature the 'Bubble Full Wash' technology as standard, which delivers high cleaning power by converting detergent into foam. To meet the growing demand for time-saving and labor-reducing home appliances, as well as to address common laundry concerns such as odors from indoor drying during the rainy season and stubborn sebum stains, the VP Series offers unprecedented convenience and overwhelming cleaning power. The 'Bubble Full Wash' function, which dispenses detergent as foam, is standard across all models. AQUA's proprietary 'Bubble Generation Unit' creates high-concentration detergent foam that quickly penetrates deep into fibers to lift dirt, while a 3D water flow provides powerful washing to remove stubborn stains from the core. Furthermore, the high-end models (AQW-VP14B/VP12B) are equipped with an industry-first 'Custom Tank' as a third tank, supporting the automatic dispensing of four types of liquids: liquid detergent, fabric softener, oxygen-based liquid bleach, and detergent for delicate clothes. This allows for easy customization based on the season or purpose. Users can automatically dispense bleach to prevent bacteria and odors, or set two types of fabric softener to switch between moods, eliminating the need for manual measuring every time. The new models also include a 'Soak Course' that repeats soaking and agitation before the main wash to lift stubborn stains, and a 'Bleach Soak Course' that automatically completes the tedious task of soaking with bleach. The lineup includes five models ranging from 14kg capacity for large families to 8kg for single households, available in White and the new Sapphire Black to suit any interior.
