Defy Appliances proudly presents its revolutionary Solar Off-Grid fridge and freezer range, designed to transform how we manage power outages and ensure food security. By harnessing solar energy, this innovative solution keeps food fresh even during outages, freeing households from reliance on the traditional electricity grid. Defy advocates for continuous refrigeration as a necessity, especially in regions with limited electricity access. The inaugural unveiling of this technology, attended by Honourable Minister Ebrahim Patel and representatives from Koç Holding A.Ş. and Arçelik Global, underscores its significance. Going beyond mere appliances, Defy collaborates with Taking Care of Business to donate solar fridges and freezers to Umlazi township, Kwa-Zulu Natal, empowering communities and reducing food waste. Defy is confident that its Solar Community project will demonstrate the transformative potential of this technology, highlighting the importance of small changes for positive outcomes. Join Defy in embracing innovation and sustainability! #DefyAppliances #SolarOffGrid #Innovation #Sustainability #ArtofLiving
