Two products from Hettich came out top among more than 5000 entries. AvanTech, the drawer system for the premium segment, and the Sensys thin door hinge impressed the 58 international jury members of the iF Design Award 2016.
The AvanTech drawer system continues the most exacting design aspirations on the inside of furniture: an AvanTech drawer cuts a fine figure with perfect sleek lines, sharply rounded edges and no cover caps whatsoever on the high quality 13 mm aluminium drawer side profiles. With the Actro 5D drawer runner, AvanTech makes perfection something you can see, feel and hear.
The new Sensys8646i thin door hinge with extremely shallow cup gives furniture makers maximum design flexibility for further options in making a mark of distinction. It permits the use of thin core board panels in a thickness from just 8 mm with a design defining surface application layer, such as glass or concrete. Thin solid front panels made, for example, of solid surface materials are also an option. The look and feel of exclusive materials can now be combined with the purist style of slender lines and narrow reveals.
The iF Design Award has been an internationally recognised hallmark of design excellence for over 60 years. It ranks among the world’s most prestigious design prizes. The award presentation will be taking place on February 26, 2016 at BMW World Munich. The AvanTech drawer and the Sensys hinge will be on display in one of three changing exhibitions staged by the iF Design Exhibition Hamburg.
