KBB Review
Blum giving 55% more storage space
Blum fittings and systems offer solutions that can give up to 55% more storage space over conventional kitchens. This can give the most compact kitchen enough storage space if it is planned carefully. There are some simple rules to bear in mind: The space available inside a cabinet is not just from front to back, it’s also from top to bottom – think volume!
Never use fixed shelves in base units – all drawers and pull-outs should move out to the user on a full extension basis so that the entire contents are both fully visible and accessible, even items at the very back. If you have high- fronted drawer units the height above the base drawer is often wasted – install an internal pull-out. Larder units
should have close stacked internal pull- outs with gallery systems and dividers – you’ll be amazed how much more can be stored!
Extremely important is to organize the internal space of drawers and pull- outs with the organisational and dividing systems offered by Blum’s ORGA-LINE.
Even zero-protrusion Blum hinges offer a few extra inches of width on tall cabinets which, when added up, equates to a significant amount of storage.
The most important thing to bear in mind is access and visibility so that no part of your internal space becomes “lost or forgotten”.

Grupo Alvic keeps innovating with new surface options G
rupo Alvic is Spain’s’ largest producer of panel components and finished doors and has several factories based in the south of Spain and another factory in the Barcelona area.
The flagship product is the LUXE range, which is the result of applying the very latest UV lacquering technology combined with the latest generation of materials which allows the creation of modern and elegant combinations for kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, shop fitting and architectural specifications.
According to Barry Berman, who represents Grupo Alvic in the UK: “One of the secrets of Luxe is the total control of the manufacturing process – from the impregnation of the raw papers to the pressing of the boards which allows the added result of being able to offer a matching reverse which is so often requested by the market when selling top quality products.
“The physical characteristics of LUXE are impressive, especially the scratch resistance and surface quality and there is a collection of finishes ranging from solid colours in gloss and matt, gloss
and matt metallics, and gloss woodgrains and abstract designs.”
Panelco, part of the Meyer Timber Group, is the exclusive distributor of the Luxe boards and is now stocking over 30 different finishes and offers a nationwide service which is hard to beat. Next day delivery is guaranteed on orders placed before 5pm, of any quantity.
