Not all design is to be seen

The highly technical extractors in the 400 series are painstakingly designed to achieve two competing aims: the removal of airborne contaminants, quietly. The science of airflow and handmade components ensures silence and efficiency.

The creation of combi-steam

Ours was the first steam oven to be made for the private kitchen. Putting a water tight oven in a home requires clever designing around a lot of engineering. As well as a reassuring amount of testing.

Hand making the TFT touch display

Amidst the almost timeless production line of skilled craftspeople workbenches and hand tools, there exists a futuristic oasis. The clean room. This is where a very few build each TFT touch display complete with trademark stainless steel rotary knobs.

Made in Lipsheim

This is where we develop and produce many of our appliances, largely by hand. And yet, the latest laser welding technology is utilised and TFT touch displays are constructed in a clean room. Welcome to the world of Lipsheim.
