Coway's Icon Pro Water Purifier: A Design Marvel

In a significant achievement for innovative home appliances, Coway Co., Ltd. announced that its Icon Pro Water Purifier has been recognized at the 2025 International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA). This prestigious accolade celebrates Coway's 16th consecutive year of recognition, underscoring its commitment to pioneering design in the industry. The IDEA, hosted by the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA), is globally revered, ranking alongside Germany’s iF Design Award and the Red Dot Design Awards.

Innovative Features of the Icon Pro Water Purifier

The Icon Pro Water Purifier sets a new standard with its advanced full-screen LCD touch display, which enhances user interaction and convenience. Unlike traditional models that rely on numerous buttons, the Icon Pro's touchscreen makes controlling the device intuitive and straightforward. Users can access real-time information and seamlessly adjust the purifier's settings with ease.

One standout feature of the Icon Pro is its Recipe Mode. This innovative function intelligently configures the water temperature, dispensing volume, and methods according to individual needs. The display also offers critical alerts regarding system updates and maintenance notifications. When maintenance is required, the purifier not only identifies issues but also provides step-by-step troubleshooting guidance to facilitate a quick resolution.

For filter and cartridge replacements, built-in sensors detect user movements, presenting helpful video and audio instructions. This significantly reduces the complexity often associated with maintaining water purification systems.

Aesthetic Appeal Meets Modern Functionality

Beyond its impressive technology, the Icon Pro Water Purifier boasts a sleek and modern design that will enhance any kitchen's aesthetics. Available in five stunning colors – Pebble Black, Porcelain White, Bronze Beige, Icy Blue, and Iron Silver – it offers versatility to match diverse home decor styles.

Jin Sang Hwang, the head of Coway's Design Lab, expressed pride in this innovative product: "The Icon Pro Water Purifier combines smart features with sophisticated design through its intuitive touchscreen interface. We aim to continue pushing design boundaries and innovation to create extraordinary experiences for our customers."
