Smart kitchen helpers that make life easier

A flexible workspace

A family hangout, a haven for foodies, a workplace and a retreat: the kitchen is so much more than simply a room where we eat and drink. Kitchens put the life into lifestyle: from dawn to dusk – and sometimes into the night. Which is why our standards for kitchen design are so varied and personal, characterised by ever-changing needs and requirements. Multifunctional faucets like the smart Oras Optima hybrid offer just the help we need in our busy kitchens.

When we’re at home, we spend a lot of our day-to-day lives in the kitchen. While we use fridge, stove-top and faucet to brew up the first coffee of the day and prepare our midday or evening meals, we’re catching up with the family, phoning friends, working, having fun and living life to the full. The kitchen’s a little ‘ecosystem’ of its own. And so its fixtures and fittings really should be ready to lend a helping hand. The kitchen faucet has an important part to play, since it’s virtually in constant use throughout the day.

Versatile, convenient and safe

Multifunctional kitchen faucets can do much more than simply provide us with tap water: they really come into their own when we have our hands full with work in the kitchen. Like the Oras Optima hybrid, for example. This amazing all-rounder combines design, functionality, safety and ease of use into one smart, stylish faucet. Thanks to the twin sets of controls, the faucet can be operated either conventionally by hand using two colour-coded levers or touchlessly with a sensor. When used as a touchless faucet, the temperature can be pre-set with a rotating ring. The display shows the temperature set in degrees Centigrade and warns users about hot water (42 degrees). As soon as the sensor detects hand movement, water flows out at the pre-set temperature for a configurable period of time before stopping again automatically. As well as protecting users and saving water, this feature is also very hygienic: since nothing needs to be touched during operation, no bacteria, viruses or microbes are transferred from hands to the faucet surface. The faucet also stays sparkling clean for longer – even if cooks need to rinse off sticky fingers while preparing a meal.

The semi-professional variant of the smart Oras Optima hybrid offers maximum freedom of movement and convenience at the kitchen faucet.

The semi-professional Oras Optima hybrid model features a high, flexible spring hose that offers additional freedom of movement and convenience. The elegantly curved spout with a hygienically smooth soft-touch finish can be directed to wherever water is needed at that moment. This makes handling large pots and pans much easier, for example. Another practical touch is the hand shower built into the spring hose, which offers two separate spray variants: One can be used for gentle washing of delicate foodstuffs or careful watering of sensitive house plants, while the other makes short work of food residues on plates and other crockery.
