The bulthaup Touch system, a truly handle-free system for opening and closing kitchen furniture, makes every front a pure and unadulterated highlight. The important stuff, however, is hidden from view: The hidden hinges for doors, drawers and deep storage drawers are installed flush, resulting in no obtrusive hooks on the frames or doors. The specially-developed mechanism is, as you would expect from bulthaup, a truly sophisticated solution without any concealed gripper bars or other such devices. The integrated and patented hinge system is characterized by a functional culture that is carefully devised right down to the very last detail. The door hinges, which are equipped with ejector springs, open at the lightest of touches. The pull-out speed for drawers and deep storage drawers is set as standard, ensuring minimum running noise and maximum convenience for the user.

bulthaup received the "red dot" design award 2003" from the Design Zentrum of North Rhine Westfalia for its Touch System.
