Garlic tadka, paneer butter masala, and even fried onions, whenever one opens the fridge, its pungent aroma gives away all the treasures hidden within. If there happens to be a half-cut onion, it can get quite overwhelming.
This is a pretty typical scenario one would find in Indian kitchens. With all the food we keep in the fridge, like spices, gravy, marinated meat, desserts, and even some stale food there is no surprise as to why fridges tend to smell so bad. Cleaning helps, but only temporarily. And until now, it seemed that the only real solution was a smarter feature that zaps the problem before it surfaces.
That is where ABT, or Anti-Bacterial Technology, steps in. ABT is designed to combat bacteria as well as odor-causing germs. The air inside the fridge is continuously purified, which ensures that the food inside stays fresh and the fridge remains odor-free. With the 4 door refrigerator, rest assured that your fridge’s cleanliness will be guaranteed.
If the smells lingering around the kitchen are escalating to unexpected levels, then it is time to not look for additional storage, but for a much-needed freshness boost powered by ABT.
Why Fridge Odour Is a Problem for Every Indian Household
Fridge odour is a dealbreaker for any home. Indian food is delicious, but the curry and chutney overload makes sure to fill the air with pungent aromas. Bacteria thrive within moist and warm conditions. When these food items are stored in the fridge, not only do they contribute to water vapor, but they are also the perfect breeding grounds for germs to thrive.
Some Other Factors Include:
- Stale food placed out in the open
- Unsealed containers housed in compartments with moisture build-up
- Rotten vegetables and leftovers
Lastly, the most traditional fridges still do not offer a solution for their users. The 4 door refrigerator is designed to remove odors within the fridge.
How Anti-Bacterial Technology Works
Affordable UV light along with other filters get rid of 99% of the germs circulating inside the fridge. ABT prevents germ-ridden air from being cycled throughout the fridge, which helps in maintaining hygiene, keeping food fresh and free from contamination.
Bacteria undergo treatment via UV rays designed to get rid of germs. The treated air stays within the fridge and continually moves, which means harmful germs won’t settle onto food placed in the fridge. The system itself operates on a 24-hour schedule without needing to change or clean filters.
The importance of all this is less odour, more safety in foods, and an experience that is pleasant every time the refrigerator is opened.
Features on Odour Control
ABT, works along with other smart innovations, making it a smell-free fridge.
1. Magic Convertible Zone
This is a smart feature that lets you increase or decrease the amount of freezer or fridge space based on your storage needs.
How does this help in isolating odour-prone items?
- Allows separation of strongly flavoured items from delicate ones like raw fish or cream desserts
- Reduces congestion of different food types, stopping the mingling of smells
2. Cooling with Triple Inverter and Dual Fan
Temperature greatly affects food freshness. Enhanced cooling and quicker recovery reduce bacterial activity, preserving food quality for longer.
- Keeps food fresh over a longer period
- Decreases the chance of bacterial activity causing odour
- Prevents formation of hot spots where food is more likely to spoil
3. Dairy, Vegetable and Fruit Sections
Refrigerators have specialized drawers for fruits, vegetables, and dairy.
- These compartments help avoid interaction between pungent items and neutral ones
- Minimizes chances of pastries and fruits smelling of garlic or absorbing other odours
4. Toughened Glass Shelves with Spill Protection
Not directly an odour-related feature, but extremely useful.
- If a container leaks, the shelf prevents spillage from seeping into lower shelves
- This reduces mess and limits the growth of bacteria that cause bad smells
Design Elements That Make Maintenance and Cleaning Simpler
The features located both inside and outside the fridge contribute to its ease of maintenance.
- Premium Black Glass Finish: The surface is easy to wipe down, helping with surface hygiene
- Sunlit Interior with LED Back Panel: Makes it easier to spot food going bad
- Smart Holiday Mode: While the family is away, it keeps the fridge running on low power to control odour and bacteria build-up
Why a Fresh-Smelling Fridge Actually Matters
Beyond comfort, not having a foul smell and maintaining hygiene contributes to long-term health:
| Benefit | How It Helps |
| Better Food Safety | Leads to safer meals due to reduced bacterial growth |
| Improved Culinary Experience | Food items are not contaminated by other flavours |
| Reduced Waste | Spoiled food can be spotted early and removed |
| Serenity | Open the fridge without any unpleasant surprises |
Is ABT Enough on Its Own?
Like any form of technology, ABT works best when paired with sound food storage practices.
ABT greatly reduces the work needed to maintain a fresh-smelling refrigerator, especially in homes where meal prepping is the norm or in multi-family dwellings that require bulk storage.
Final Thoughts: Is Now the Time to Change?
If your refrigerator continues to smell even when it’s cleaned frequently, then it indicates that the refrigerator is not designed to deal with the intricacies of storing Indian food. Smart upgrades that incorporate features like ABT, Convertible Zones, and other advanced cooling functionalities not only tackle stubborn odour issues but also enhance kitchen hygiene while improving overall lifestyle.
