ROTPUNKT, leading designer and manufacturer of climate friendly German kitchen furniture, loves laundry in 2023, with the company’s XGE handleless profile, which offers a super-tight insertion with sleek angular design.
For use across its Zerox furniture in all 26 colour options, this furniture concept with XGE profile means you can now bring the streamline qualities of the handleless kitchen into the modern laundry room, while fully optimising an extensive range of custom accessories.
Space-saving by design, the XGE handleless profile provides a deep, angled cut out for easy access to this lifestyle-oriented laundry room, which features an impressive arrangement of tall laundry units with an integrated laundry basket tray, waste bin, shoe storage, cleaning supplies tray and wooden racks for storing bottles.
Handleless: The XGE handleless profile creates a deep, angled cut out hidden behind the cabinet door for easy access to laundry furniture that typically demands easy operation, or is limited on space. Customers won’t need to worry about their delicates getting caught on the door handles either, as the XGE rail presents a recessed gap that runs the full width of the chosen door or drawer for a stylishly safe, handleless furniture solution.
Versatile: Rotpunkt offers three tall unit designs in five available heights measuring 1,820 mm, 1,950 mm, 2,080 mm, 2,210 mm and 2,340 mm tall with a depth of 565-625 mm. Fully equipped with a range of interior elements and storage components for the laundry room such as adjustable and fixed shelving, doors with custom cubby holes, and special design features like angled baskets, pull-out deep drawers complete with laundry hamper, and even a built-under drawer unit with fully extendable shelf.
Ergonomic: Pair tall laundry units with a combi furniture solution for a washing machine and dryer, specially designed at an ergonomic working height for ease of use. In fact, stacked or side-by-side laundry appliances are designed to create a clear separation of tasks, so customers can easily wash and dry clothes in a way that is more hygienic and far quieter, being housed outside of the main kitchen!
Climate friendly furniture: All Rotpunkt furniture is designed and created under the company’s award-winning Together to Zero climate strategy to reduce carbon emissions at every stage of manufacture. The featured Zerox furniture in Nature Split Oak and Snow finishes are crafted from Greenline BioBoard Gen2, the sustainable, green and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional chipboards, which consists of up to 90% recycled wood without sacrificing on quality.
Matt Phillips, head of UK operations at Rotpunkt, says: “As today’s lifestyle and love of open plan living continues to define how we cook and wash in the home, we are seeing the departure of laundry appliances in the kitchen. Now a key design consideration if space allows, relocating the washer and dryer is helping to prevent unwanted sound pollution in the main kitchen and better serve the busy working family answerable to essential daily tasks. Along with the XGE handleless profile, you can also introduce a laundry room into an open-plan kitchen space with our new access door, which opens in reverse. Embracing the possibilities of reconfiguring the ground floor, our access door provides discreet entry through a continuous run of tall units that when used, reveals a hidden room which is self-contained from the rest of the kitchen living space — ideal if a separate laundry room is required!
