Häcker reports high demand in Emirate’s fit-out market
German kitchen manufacturer attributes strong sales to “discerning” UAE market
Kitchen manufacturer Häcker has reported higher sales of its new ‘Phantom’ kitchen island after its first two months in Dubai, than in an entire year on the UK market.
The firm credited the popularity of the Phantom line to a “discerning” client base, which actively seeks exclusivity.
It added that demand for high-quality products had driven the market.
Formed from natural stone, Phantom uses Silent Move technology to double the available work surfaces on kitchen islands.
The sliding, half-ton stone cover surface can be moved “with a single hand”, revealing a flush mounted sink and hob underneath; doubling the available surface area, without permanently losing space in the room.
The technology is patented to Häcker Kitchens and has already won the BMK award for kitchen design innovation.
“We find that customers in the UAE market are extremely discerning about their home interiors and demand furniture that is very innovative and at the pinnacle of industry designs,” commented Häcker Kitchens’ UAE director Samir Ranavaya.
“The Phantom line of kitchens offers the exclusivity that much of the market looks for in the UAE,” he added.
