The kitchen is one of the highest traffic areas of your home and has become so much more than just the room where meals are prepared. It’s time to move away from convention and let technology inject some convenience into the heart of the home. Here’s how:
Make your kitchen sink tech-savvy. Gone are the days when your sink had taps. Mixers can now be high tech affairs, like this Neptune Filterflow Mixer from Franke. The filtration cartridges mean you can enjoy naturally fresh water direct from your sink mixer. This innovative technology filters out metals, chlorine, and more, giving you an effective way to safeguard your health and well-being.
You can even take this one step further with the ZIP Hydro Taps, which dispense boiling, chilled, and sparkling water. Imagine never having to wait for a kettle to boil and being able to get the perfect temperature water, straight from the tap, for a cup of piping hot coffee. What a lifesaver first thing in the morning! Its sparkling water function will make bottled water a thing of the past. We guarantee that the chilled water will be a favourite during our hot South African summers.
GROHE Blue® Pure is the answer for people who prefer the natural taste of still water. The GROHE Blue® filter technology turns regular tap water into fresh water, eliminating all the materials that can spoil its taste. This means that people who prefer still water do not have to miss out on the great taste of water from a GROHE Blue® water system. The GROHE Blue® filter cartridge can decontaminate up to 600 litres of water and can be replaced in just a few steps. In addition, it delivers a pure, stimulating taste experience with no aftertaste of heavy metals, limescale, or chlorine.
If you’re an enthusiastic cook who spends a lot of time in the kitchen, you want surfaces that are durable and easy to clean. Your sink is one of the most used elements of the kitchen, so let science make it better! Stainless steel is an obvious go-to here, but if you’re looking for something with all the same hygiene benefits but a more natural look, consider a more modern finish such as Franke’s Fragranite. This surface is finely textured but not porous, ensuring a high standard of hygiene. Composed of 80% quartz sand and 20% hard acrylic resin, Fragranite is durable enough to last a lifetime.
Even cleaning up after meal prep has been made easier by modern technology. We love Franke’s Waste Management solutions for the convenience of just making organic waste disappear. Food scraps are liquified and flushed in an instant, banishing smelly bins and flies from your kitchen for good. If you’re not ready to take the plunge with a full-on disposal, we also have discreet built-in under-counter bin options.
