Kiturami Boiler, the Only Boiler Brand to Achieve Its Highest-Ever Ranking

Korea's Favorite Boiler Brand Delivers Total Heating Solutions Through Innovative Products

Kiturami Boiler has once again confirmed its overwhelming brand recognition, becoming the only household boiler brand to make the list of Korea's Top 100 Brands.

Kiturami Co., Ltd. (CEO Kim Hak-soo) announced that Kiturami Boiler has been selected for the '2023 Korea's Top 100 Brands' released by brand value evaluation firm BrandStock, marking its 11th consecutive year on the list.

'Korea's Top 100 Brands' is a brand value certification program that announces the top 100 brands based on the composite BSTI (BrandStock Top Index) score, which is made up of a brand stock price index and a consumer survey index.

Kiturami Boiler climbed a substantial nine spots from the previous year to reach 51st place overall—its highest ranking ever. This is the result of a steady climb over 11 years since it first entered Korea's Top 100 Brands at 98th place in 2013, continuing its standing as Korea's favorite boiler brand. Amid an era of energy crisis, Kiturami is providing total heating solutions by introducing new products that enhance consumer convenience with high energy efficiency, including eco-friendly boilers, carbon mats, and carbon boards.

The 'Reverse NEW Condensing L10 Gas Boiler,' a flagship eco-friendly product, further improves hot water quality compared to previous models through a 'Smart Hot Water Function' that utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) and big data systems. As a storage-type product optimized for ondol (underfloor) heating, it delivers fast and efficient heating even in homes with reinforced flooring or marble floors, as well as in large-sized homes.

The 'Kiturami 3rd-Generation Carbon Mat Ondol,' which dramatically improves upon the harmful electromagnetic waves and fire hazards of first-generation electric mats and the water leakage, bacteria, and water-refilling inconveniences of second-generation water mats, has established itself as the mainstream choice in the heating mat market in its fourth year on the market.

Kiturami has recently entered the building heating materials market as well, launching the 'Kiturami Carbon Board Ondol,' which applies the advantages of the 3rd-generation carbon mat to indoor heating materials. The Kiturami Carbon Board Ondol features a patented carbon heating mesh at its core, delivering fast and uniform heating throughout the entire indoor space via far-infrared radiant heat. As a dry-type heating material that requires no hot water piping work, it is easy to install, and it can be easily disassembled for reuse or relocation, drawing attention for use in lodging facilities and various public facilities.

A Kiturami Boiler official said, "Ever since we supplied modern briquette boilers to 450 households at the Mapo Apartments in 1962, the efforts we have made over half a century in business to advance and innovate Korea's ondol heating culture have become the driving force in establishing Kiturami as synonymous with the household boiler," adding, "Not only with eco-friendly boilers but also with a wide range of solutions that concentrate Kiturami's heating technology—such as carbon mats and carbon boards—we will deliver warmth to homes across Korea."
