The company, which started in home appliance manufacturing, has now expanded its business into three directions: smart homes, data center cooling, and enterprise internal AI transformation.
In the smart home sector, as of 2025, Haier Smart Home had accumulated over 130 million registered users globally, with 86.1 billion scenario interactions throughout the year. Among these, the HaiSmart platform connected over 100 million devices in China and countries along the Belt and Road, with over 14 million monthly active users; the SmartHQ platform had over 5 million active users and more than 21 million connected products in the Americas, Europe, and Australia. The company has maintained the top position in smart home invention patents for 15 consecutive years, and in March of this year, was certified by Euromonitor International as the world's number one enterprise in smart home sales revenue. In addition, Haier Smart Home is the lead construction enterprise for the national AI+ application pilot base (consumer sector · home furnishing and appliance track).
In data center cooling, Haier Smart Home entered the field through its magnetic bearing technology in the large HVAC segment. In 2006, the company developed China's first magnetic bearing centrifugal chiller. Its water-cooled magnetic bearing and precision air conditioning system, customized for a national-level supercomputing center, achieved a stable PUE below 1.2; during the same period, the average PUE of newly built large data centers in China ranged between 1.3 and 1.4. In Southeast Asia, a data center adopting its air-cooled solution saw its PUE drop to 1.38. Its business scope covers both equipment supply and system integration.
In enterprise internal AI transformation, Haier Smart Home has developed its own vertical large language model and unified technology foundation, using the super agent "Zhi Xiao Neng" as the entry point to connect the entire chain of R&D, manufacturing, and services. After implementation, new product R&D cycles were shortened by 30%, manufacturing efficiency improved by 20%, service experience improved by 40%, and sales management expense ratios have been optimized for five consecutive years. The company's annual revenue exceeds 300 billion yuan, with business covering more than 200 countries worldwide.
Currently, Haier Smart Home's AI applications cover three areas: end-user products, data center cooling, and internal operations.
