V-Zug: The Future of Kitchen Appliances

As curators of fine furniture with over three decades of experience, our team has its finger on the pulse when it comes to integrating smart solutions into modern habitats. And, if you’re looking to install state-of-the-art appliances in your next big refurbishment, then we’ve spied an industry trailblazer that’s worth some consideration.

This is our spotlight on V-Zug. 

 

The rise of smart technology in kitchen landscapes

The kitchen appliance market is booming at the moment with consumers continually searching for products that bring a sense of ease to their busy lifestyles. With a focus on spending less time doing chores and more on things that satisfy our emotional needs, there’s a rise in demand for anything that shortcuts unnecessary effort. 

Things like hot taps (that deliver boiling water on demand) and voice-activated devices are common features - and kinetic wiring will soon become the new standard in contemporary homes. 

Along with the latest in automation comes a need for environmental sustainability, sparking a frenzied focus on green materials and lower energy consumption. 

With this exciting pairing of advanced gadgetry and clean living, manufacturers now vie for attention by flaunting their tech-savvy prowess, and new contenders are taking the world by storm. 

One that’s certainly causing a stir this year is V-Zug.
