The original pioneer of this iconic
semi-professional design has infused this collection with
contemporary details, new models and striking finishes.
LUMBERTON, N.J. and TORONTO, July 2, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- BLANCO, the premium kitchen solutions brand
backed by industry-leading German engineering and known for the
BLANCO UNIT– a customizable combination of sink, faucet,
accessories and organization – is relaunching their award-winning
faucet collection in new models and finishes. The BLANCOCULINA was
introduced to the market in 2011 as one of the first semi-pro
faucet archetypes to make its highly functional, industrial-style
debut from professional kitchens to residential households.
BLANCO's stylish interpretation became a kitchen must-have across
25 countries, and is now revamped with modern design details, a
full kitchen suite and a breadth of trending finishes.
The reimagined BLANCOCULINA II suite has
seamlessly blended the iconic semi-pro design with contemporary
enhancements.
Iconic Design Reimagined
BLANCO's international
product design team, spearheaded by Marcel
Moritz, revisited the iconic design of BLANCOCULINA and
modernized the look, feel and functionality to appeal to the
evolved home chef. The faucet's form is sleeker, slimmer and taller
than before, with triple coil hose protection for
professional-grade handling and anti-sagging properties. The
classic semi-professional handspray has a magnetic docking system
that securely locks into place when not in use and a sleek
dual-spray button to easily switch between powerful spray and
laminar flow. Constructed in solid brass, the BLANCOCULINA II
features a longer, more ergonomic handle and unique black inlay
design detail that visually connects the full suite.
"With the reimagined BLANCOCULINA II collection, we have
seamlessly blended our iconic semi-professional design with
contemporary enhancements. Our goal was to honor the pioneering
spirit of the original while introducing innovative features that
cater to the modern home chef," stated Edyta Drutis, Vice President of Brand Marketing
for BLANCO North America. "The new
BLANCOCULINA II faucets not only offer superior functionality but
also elevate the aesthetic appeal of any kitchen with their sleek
lines and stunning finishes."
Dual Sensor Technology
To further modernize the
BLANCOCULINA II semi-pro faucet, the new collection includes
motion-sensor technology in two faucet models to assist with meal
prep and cleaning workflows. Sensor capabilities include two
intuitive access points: the pot filling sensor on the semi-pro's
arm and the handwashing sensor on the body to prevent spreading
mess. The pot filling sensor is motion activated with infrared
light, while the handwashing sensor automatically shuts off after
90 seconds. Set the ideal water temperature and flow with the
handle via the digital cartridge and use the cleaning lock to pause
the sensors when needed.
The BLANCOCULINA II sensor versions are available in the full
and mini semi-pro sizes in Chrome and PVD Steel finishes.
Expanded Suite
The BLANCOCULINA II collection has
expanded to the largest faucet suite available at BLANCO to outfit
the full kitchen, including the semi-pro, mini semi-pro for compact
kitchens and bars, the beverage faucet that connects to BLANCO's
new water filters and pot filler. Each handle in the portfolio
showcases the circular black inlay design detail. Available in six
beautiful finishes, homeowners can perfectly match their kitchen
faucet to their pot filler, beverage faucet and soap dispenser. The
BLANCOCULINA II finishes include Matte Black and Chrome, as well as
four PVD finishes; Satin Gold, Satin Dark Steel, Steel and Satin
Platinum. Each faucet boasts a 1.5 gallons per minute (GPM)
flow rate for water-saving benefits, and the beverage faucet ranges
from .5 to 1.5 GPM depending on the filter. Products are available
at kitchen and bath showrooms and online retailers.
To complete the sink station, pair the BLANCOCULINA II semi-pro
faucet with a BLANCO sink, accessories and under-cabinet
organization for a highly functional, showstopping BLANCO UNIT.
