Necessity is the mother of invention. And so it was for visionary designer Willi Bruckbauer.
A growing dissatisfaction in the existing options drove him to realise innovative invention was the only solution.
He was focusing on kitchens – the expert blend of functionality and form which leads to
outstanding design – and this time it was specifically the issue of eliminating cooking
vapours.
Extractor hoods were typically loud, ineffective and visually intrusive, restricting the
possibilities of amazing design and not functionally fit. His drive for perfection meant it had
become absolutely necessary to invent something completely new, something
groundbreaking.
Embracing the challenge in 2006, Willi Bruckbauer developed and patented his first cooktop
extractor system, the BORA Professional. At last - something quiet, clean, sleek, effective
and which offered versatility in design and function.
Today, the company has gone from strength to strength and is really turning heads on the
international market. Following continual redevelopment by the BORA team, it outstrips any
competition and has won several prestigious awards.
And BORA is continuing to push the boundaries of innovation and design. This spring sees
the launch of the BORA classic 2.0 range, winner of the 2019 ICONIC AWARDS.
So what exactly is the BORA cooktop extraction system and how does it work?
In a range of sizes and functional options, it creates an area of low pressure which draws in
air from the surrounding hob. Steam and vapours rise at a maximum of 1 metre per second,
so the BORA cooktop extracts with cross flow suction that is faster, thus eliminating them.
Streamlined and subtle – it eliminates the need for any unsightly overhead extractor allowing
overall design versatility in a kitchen. Its low-noise motors are softened further by sound
absorbers and its extraction efficacy means 100 per cent clean air at head height. And it’s
extremely easy to clean.
It’s transformed the cooking experience and brought serenity to even the busiest heart of the
home.
