As an innovative fittings specialist, Hettich is an indispensable partner for kitchen and appliance manufacturers when developing solutions that simultaneously meet the requirements of the market and of kitchen buyers. The new proTech X designer drawer side profile from Pronorm is based on the ExeoTech drawer system from Hettich. It impresses with a particularly slim, clean-lined design and the ability to reflect different design versions within one system – and it also takes the brand manufacturer's production process to a new level.

FurnSpin revolutionising kitchen design
The FurnSpin turn-and-swivel system from Hettich can be scaled to suit various applications. It makes transforming kitchen furniture from open to closed and vice versa a new form of storage space utilisation and a highlight in the premium kitchen segment. Eggersmann utilises this fitting innovation to demonstrate just how extraordinary kitchen designs can be with the homely GLOW tall unit element, which integrates glass sides and lighting. Nobilia uses a FurnSpin XL in its base unit, and BT 45 showcases it in a total of three different applications. One of these is based on Hettich’s RoomSpin object carrier, which makes entire interiors rotatable.

The 2025 design trends
Kitchens not only have to look good; they should also make everyday life noticeably easier. With its optimised storage solutions, ergonomic drawer systems with lighting, and other fittings innovations, Hettich provides a wide range of solutions that create greater convenience in the kitchen. Openness and visual lightness are further design trends. This is reflected in open shelves, reduced frames, slim contours, and greater transparency. With the new SAH 500 heavy-duty hanger, which makes even heavy furniture appear to float, Hettich has introduced another trend-oriented solution.
In addition, natural materials dominate kitchen design. Wooden structures, along with light surfaces, are becoming even more prominent than before. Natural stone, brushed surfaces, and hand-patinated metals are combined with smooth finishes. Here, organic structures replace pure minimalism. Manufacturers are increasingly focusing on soft transitions with curved edges, rounded unit sides, and semicircular shapes. Ergonomics and well-being play a major role in kitchen design. This is also reflected in warm, earthy, and muted colours. Shades such as beige, greige, sand, sage, olive, and terracotta create a pleasantly calming atmosphere. Black is used more as an accent colour. Refining details such as bronze, gold, and metallic finishes can be found on handles, fittings, and decorative strips.
