What's the ideal pressure for manually clamping boards together? Extra tight or just somewhat tight?

Furniture connecting fittings are a part of Häfele's core expertise, and have been manufactured for the furniture industry in large quantities for decades by the Nagold-based company. A prime example of these connecting fittings is the Minifix, which has been manufactured millions of times and undergone continuous improvement, and has been reliably holding furniture together all over the world since it was developed by Häfele in 1983.

The sale of furniture handles & knobs has been a constituent of the Nagold hardware fittings specialist‘s core business since the early days of Häfele. 90 years after it was established, Häfele has now presented its own furniture handle & knob collection for kitchens and living areas at interzum. From initial design studies via prototyping and tool construction to series manufacture, the handles & knobs are completely “Engineered by Häfele”.

Users are excited about multifunctional furniture. This was proven by the feedback to Häfele's presentation at interzum 2013, where the company showed how innovative hardware technology can make life easier on the example of a multifunctional kitchen and a convertible home office, among other things.

Made to measure sliding door solutions – that is what the successful “Silent Aluflex” range of fittings from Häfele is all about. This range of aluminium frames that has been designed and manufactured by Häfele has been impressing customers and partners alike in different areas (interior fitting, joiners/cabinet makers and the industry) for years with its extensive range of design and convenience solutions. It also reflects the spirit of the age with regard to modern, expansive living areas and practical storage space solutions. The continuous additions to the product range, different materials and wide range of decorative panels with which individual solutions can be efficiently implemented in residential areas and offices are also important.

Maximum functionality and optimum convenience: These two objectives have been achieved perfectly with the Slido Classic 70 VF A. This new, modular sliding door system demonstrated its versatility on a four-door cabinet at interzum and impressed the specialists with its running characteristics and outstanding design. The Häfele hardware professionals from Nagold have once again succeeded in highlighting their sliding expertise with this new fitting and other innovations.

Following the successful launch of its new, hinge-less Free flap stay flap fittings this year, Häfele is now extending this range of fittings. For example, at interzum the Nagold company group exhibited what it already has up its sleeve – based on the existing Free flap 1.7 and 3.15 fittings. A push-to-open solution for these two fittings will soon be available. Other highlights are an electric drive, the extension with the Loox LED lighting system and a low-cost double flap lift up fitting.

Choosing the right light for every mood and every situation is luxury. Light is often the number one priority in modern interior fitting and furniture manufacture wherever there is a need for additional convenience and functionality. Häfele has the right answer to innovative and economical LED lights: The Loox LED lighting system. The latest system additions have now been introduced at interzum, and make the use of light in furniture even more versatile and flexible.
