peka SICAM 2021

Precision craftmanship inside and outside the unit

The exhibition centre in Pordenone (Italy) once again showcased the best of furniture production this October, with accessories, components and semi-finished products of all kinds on display.

There was plenty to interest visitors to peka's stand. The Swiss fittings manufacturer brings dynamism and movement to furniture design, particularly in the kitchen. Visitors' eyes were immediately drawn to some brand-new innovations, with the freshly unveiled Piuro family of kitchen organisers providing a foretaste of peka's high-precision craftsmanship. This impression was confirmed with a look behind the unit fronts. The Pinello family of base units, with their wide range of applications, offered a host of features to discover. The Riverso system, allowing drawers to be opened from both sides, and peka's most space-efficient larder unit pull-out to date, Pleno Maxi, also attracted a lot of attention. Most of the products, including some classics, were displayed in the new Liro design line.

Kitchen organisers

Piuro product family

A naturally elegant addition to any kitchen counter, peka's new Piuro product family is aesthetically defined by its clean lines. Its distinctive design exudes calm and helps to create an uncluttered overall feel.

The family of high-quality kitchen organisers consists of six products: a small tray, Piuro Mini Tray; its larger counterpart, Piuro Maxi Tray; the Piuro Box storage box; the Piuro Sink caddy; the Piuro Board chopping board holder; and the Piuro Paper kitchen roll holder.

These organisers are available in delicate silk grey, complementing and enhancing warm kitchen designs, as well as high-impact black – ideal for adding emphasis. All are made from fine-textured powder-coated steel. This material, so typical of peka products, is durable and recyclable.

Piuro provides a stylish home for loose items, not only in the kitchen but also in living areas, bathrooms and studios.

Customisable system base units

Pinello product family

Covering an array of applications with just a few core items: that's the philosophy behind peka's latest family of base unit pull-outs. The metal fabricators and storage professionals have come up with a truly ingenious product system.

Pinello is the name of peka's newly launched product family, and it covers all the functions you could want from a base unit.

Pinello Spice is the slender pull-out spice rack that fits in a 150-mm-wide unit. Designed for unit widths of 200 and 300 mm, Pinello Cargo is the 'big daddy' of the family, boasting an incredible amount of storage space. Pinello Towel is an extending towel rail while Pinello Board provides easy access to boards and trays. There's even Pinello Bread, intended specifically for that most ubiquitous of foods. As well as fulfilling their designated functions, Pinello Towel, Board and Bread also offer additional storage space. Last but not least, Pinello can also be sold as a purely internal pull-out for furniture with hinged doors and is used, for example, next to the waste bin to store cleaning materials.

Benefits at a glance

As usual with peka products, Pinello pull-outs are made of coated sheet steel, which has some first-rate advantages as a material. It can be made into thin-walled yet highly stable products, guaranteeing the best possible use of available space. The shelves have closed bases that stop bottles and small items from toppling over or falling through. They are also incredibly easy to clean.

All Pinello pull-outs are fitted with a Softclose mechanism for smooth, silent closing, and a push-to-open system is also available for handle-free doors. Their high degree of lateral stability ensures good sliding properties, and the pull-outs move smoothly and easily thanks to the top-quality Grass Nova Pro or Blum Legrabox runners for which they are designed.

Variety without complexity

"Pinello is the most efficient system I know of," enthuses the peka product manager – and he isn't referring to its quick and easy assembly. The system is clever because it uses just a few basic elements to offer an array of different configurations.

A Pinello is always a double-decker, but with the freely positionable extra shelf, up to four levels are possible. This means that each Pinello product is compatible with multiple unit heights. There are also add-ons such as the bottle rack, non-slip mats and magnetic dividers. This platform strategy culminates in the design. A pull-out is available in three basic colours, white, silver and anthracite, but these colours can be supplemented with light-oak rails if desired. Customers can even specify their own choice of material instead of oak.

All in all, Pinello is a highly efficient system that greatly reduces the number of component items, which saves on both storage space and inventory value. It will be of interest to anyone who values a tightly-organised, clearly-arranged warehouse.

A fresh take on space

Riverso drawer system

One unit, two spaces. Riverso is a unique system that allows drawers to be opened from both sides, whether in island units or room dividers. peka's latest invention opens up completely new possibilities for the use of space.

A drawer that can be pulled out on both sides means that the same unit can be accessed from two different sides. This offers countless possibilities to use space in new ways and make day-to-day processes more efficient. "Passing items through the unit instead of carrying them around it saves a huge amount of walking!," says peka's Deputy CEO Sandra Weber. For a typical example of how Riverso can be used in homes, imagine a cutlery drawer in an island unit or room divider which can be opened from both the kitchen and the dining area.

Businesses, too, have started to see the potential of drawers that are accessible from both sides. Riverso is perfect for display units in showrooms, for instance, as it means that two salespeople can access the same items at the same time. Simplifying product flows is also beneficial in medical settings such as pharmacies, hospitals and laboratories, where rooms and spaces need to be divided up, substantial distances are involved, and complex access procedures may be in force. Being able to exchange materials easily via a drawer makes a lot of processes simpler.

Quality down to the last detail

Riverso uses a full-extension drawer runner with a load capacity of 40 kg. The runner technology, made by Grass, has excellent sliding properties. The runner also has built-in soft-closing mechanisms for added user-friendliness.

Unlike conventional systems with drawers that open from both sides, Riverso's overlay fronts mean that the front of the closed side is not pulled through the unit when the drawer is opened from the opposite side.

Custom-designed drawers

A defining feature of peka's solution is its flexibility. The fact that Riverso consists of just two pairs of runners, a coupling and front brackets on both sides means that the drawers can be manufactured to the customer's individual requirements, with unit depths ranging from 530 to 900 mm and unit widths from 550 to 915 mm.

Riverso is compatible with any unit design and any front material thanks to the overlay fronts that are the system's main USP. These mean that the fronts do not have to be artificially shortened, which gives the whole unit a uniform look. What's more, handle-free fronts can be fitted on one side, which makes the system even more versatile.

Typically peka

With Riverso, peka is staying true to form. The fittings manufacturer is constantly looking for ways to make clever use of space, and its great ingenuity and passion for detail have seen it develop a raft of premium-quality products that are also extremely user-friendly. Riverso is just the latest in a long line of world-class innovations.

The new Pleno Plus: now even more storage space

Pleno Plus larder unit

peka's handy larder unit just got even more efficient. The new version of Pleno Plus boasts a winning combination of more generous shelves and better use of vertical and horizontal space.

Pleno Plus has always offered impressively easy access to the entire unit contents, no matter how high or how far back they are. It's all thanks to the special way the system works: when the door is opened, all the shelves glide out together so that all the unit's contents are displayed. Because the upper shelves are also split between the door and the cabinet, even short users can reach any item stored in the unit quickly and comfortably.

It goes without saying that this feature has been retained in the new Pleno Plus, but the new version also boasts extra-large shelves that are wider and deeper than before. It also makes even better use of the unit height.

Last but not least, Pleno Plus is now attached to only one of the side walls, and the same fittings can be used for either side. That means that for the first time Pleno Plus can be used to create a double unit without the need for a partition.

These innovations in the shelf, frame and slide system also apply to Pleno Standard, of course.

Users will continue to enjoy the pull-out's smooth movement, including Softopen and Softclose, and an unbeatable overview of the unit contents. The shelf types of varying sizes provide perfect storage space for everything from small espresso cups to large pots. Pleno Plus is also ideally suited to centralised food storage. Its Liro-design shelves offer all the advantages of peka's powder-coated sheet steel shelves and can also be customised with rails.

One design, multiple styles

Liro design line

Liro is the new shelf line from peka. Its design offers scope for creative freedom.

Liro shelves fit with the customer's style as they can be combined with rails for a tailor-made look. Users can choose to pair the shelves with rails made of solid oak, which are the perfect complement to wooden front panels and warm colours, or, alternatively, they can opt for glass, compact laminates, aluminium or another material. Without rails, Liro shelves ooze calm sophistication. Combined with inserted rails, they create an eye-catching effect as the unit door is opened.

Liro is defined by its clean lines and uncomplicated shape, yet the details of the new design reveal peka's exceptional expertise in metal processing. The shelves are made of top-quality coated sheet steel, folded with millimetre precision: every angle is exactly right.

This material, so typical of peka products, allows designs with very thin walls but no compromise on stability. The shelves are easy to clean thanks to their even surface, and they can be recycled as a single material at the end of their life. Liro shelves can also be visually and functionally enhanced with hard-wearing, discreet silicone mats.
