Harnessing the best of Hitachi technology, we derive immense pleasure in delivering eco-friendly refrigerators through proprietary technologies.
Hitachi Made in Japan refrigerators exude external aesthetic beauty and are also made for the intelligent and innovative homes of the future.
With Hitachi, you’ve got it made.
The secret to longer-lasting freshness is reduced oxygen levels. Hitachi’s original preservation extracts air to maintain approx. 0.8 atm of vacuum preservation. With unique Platinum Catalyst, chilled meat, fish and dairy products are kept fresh and nutritious, and ready to cook.
Stay healthy. A vacuumed environment prevents oxidisation and retains nutrients inside the food.

K-value of 20% or higher is not suitable for eating raw and K-value of 60% or higher is not suitable for consumption. The effect may differ depending on types or freshness of food stored, and does not extend to best-before and expiration dates.
Excellent preservation of original flavour and texture, by minimising the drips while keeping them fresh without getting frozen and hydrated without the need for troublesome wrapping.

* Tested by Hitachi. Tested Model : R-WB64VGD0. The effect may differ depending on types or freshness of food stored, and does not extend to best-before and expiration dates.
Quick seasoning is made possible because the Vacuum Compartment removes air from stored food, enabling seasoning to be absorbed at a faster rate.*3 So, with less time required for seasoning and cooking, there’s more time for eating!
**3 Tested by Hitachi. Tested Model : R-G6700D (equivalent atmospheric pressure to R-HWS480KS). Penetration rates may differ depending on food seasoning used.
Hitachi innovation at its finest and most consistent : the sealed pressure-resistant vacuum realises and maintains the vacuumed environment. A vacuum pump extracts air and reduces oxygen to achieve approx. 0.8 atm (atmospheric pressure) throughout usage.
* The image is R-HW610NS, and wide length and capacity differ from R-HWS480KS.
Approx. 2°C of chilled temperature suppress the activities of bacteria so the cooked item stays fresh and delicious.*3
High humidity keeps the salad fresh without rapping by suppressing dehydration and discolouration.
*3 Tested by Hitachi. The effect may differ depending on conditions and amount of food stored.
Storing at high humidity environment retains the freshness of your food, and suppresses dehydration and discolouration without troublesome rapping*4.

*4 Tested model : R-HX60N (equivalent Moisture Cooling performance to R-HWS480KS) for With Moisture Cooling and R-XG56J (equivalent performance to R-G570GS) for Without Moisture Cooling. The effect differs depending on the type and freshness of food.
Now you can use the whole Refrigerator Compartment as a chilled room.
Approx. 2°C chilled air lets them "breathe" and retains Vitamin C and freshness.*15
A warm item such as a pot*26 can be stored without affecting surrounding items.
A warm item such as a pot*26 can be stored without affecting surrounding items.
*15 Tested by Hitachi. The effect differs depending on the type and freshness.
*26 The pot is needed to be cooled down to approx. 50°C for storing.
By suppressing dehydration of the air to the refrigerator compartment, the fully-moistured air suppresses the temperature drop and the dehydration of the food.
By controlling the rotational speed of the cooling fan dedicated for refrigerator compartment, it controls the whole shelves of the refrigerator compartment at approx. 2°C.
