Detailed product information
The front is the face of a kitchen and this can be presented in a variety of surface finishes.
In terms of design and quality the surfaces show considerable differences.
Some surfaces display a high resistance to water and to fluctuations in temperature, whereas others show an extreme reaction. The various qualities automatically determine the value of a front.
At this point we would like to mention that in Germany the average life expectancy of a kitchen is 13 years. A rational kitchen has a much longer lifespan. This means that superior workmanship, high-grade materials and perfect technology are necessary in order to guarantee the corresponding longevity.
