At the in-house exhibition in September 2024, Häcker presented a host of fresh innovations and customisation options – proof that the company takes their ‘Be unique’ motto seriously.
All the news from Rödinghausen
At the traditional in-house exhibition in September 2024, Häcker presented a whole host of fresh innovations. The systemat range now comes with several new features as standard, including a carcase depth of 61 centimetres, inner lighting and extra narrow frames. Häcker also introduced a series of new fronts and glass cabinets – all in keeping with their motto ‘Be unique’.
Häcker was ready with a host of exciting in¬novations at the in-house exhibition in Sep¬tember. This year, there was a particular focus on the systemat range. The product managers developed a wide variety of new features that illustrate Häcker’s high stand¬ards. Häcker sets themselves apart from the competition at an international level with the motto ‘Be unique’. It represents the individ¬uality and uniqueness in Häcker’s kitchen designs. With their new products, Häcker and their retail partners offer many options for customisation and solutions during planning that will make any kitchen unique and meet the requirements of demanding customers who are placing ever greater emphasis on individuality.
Three new stunning standard features
In the systemat range, Häcker now offers three new elements as standard that signif¬icantly expand the scope for kitchen plan-ning and increase the added value for end customers. With a new carcase depth of 61 centimetres for pull-outs, Häcker is ex-panding upon their product portfolio with a basic planning element that offers plenty of advantages in terms of storage space and appearance. Since autumn, the pull-outs have also been equipped with fully integrated lighting as standard which signif¬icantly increases user comfort and helps to create a pleasant lighting environment. A further design highlight from Häcker that is now also included in the systemat range as standard is the SLD SlimLine Drawer. The draw¬ers have the most delicate pull-out system on the mar¬ket with particularly narrow metal frames measuring just eight millimetres thick.
The systemat pull-outs now offer 10 per cent more space as standard, are illuminated from above and have extra-narrow frames.
Focus on wood
With the systemat range, Häcker is focusing on its core competence of wood in the form of extra-narrow framed fronts, a new veneer front inspired by Viennese canework and open-jointed solid wood pull-outs. Häcker has also given the inside of their kitchens a makeover with a new design carcase in natural fine oak, a light, fine-grained wood décor.
Pull-outs made from solid wood
The traditional craftsmanship that is part of Häcker’s DNA can clearly be seen in the new, open-jointed pull-outs made from solid wood. The precisely worked notch¬es ensure lasting durability, stability and outstanding quality. In addition, these decorative pull-outs give the kitchen furniture an elegant appearance and lovely feel.
With more storage space and a whole new look, the new systemat pull-outs offer significantly more added value for users.

A variety of fronts
Framed fronts continue to be a popular option, but many customers find them too rural and rustic. With their delicately designed new fronts, Häcker has come up with a solution that better fits more minimalist, urban kitch¬ens. They have an extra narrow frame in a dainty faceted design. Alongside an impressive programme of colours, which includes shades like eucalyptus or velvet blue, this kitchen can also be ordered in 190 colours on the RAL and 2,000 colours on te NCS spectrum, thus ensuring almost endless design options.
The narrow frames of the new faceted fronts give them a warm, inviting look.
WITH NUANCE
All systemat kitchens are available in 190 RAL shades and 2,000 tones from the NCS colour system. Pictured here is a kitchen in greige with grey worktops with a structure that resembles concrete.
Sustainable linoleum
The attention of many visitors was drawn to a new front made using a material that combines two of Häcker’s core competenc¬es, sustainability and trend-conscious col¬our variety: linoleum. This familiar material is made almost exclusively from natural, sustainable raw materials like linseed oil, sawdust from certified sustainable forests and limestone powder. Linoleum surfaces are also a real treat for the hands. They feel pleasantly soft and warm. What’s more, they look great in natural, matt shades like smoky blue and sage green. When combined with edging made from real wood veneer in elegant oak, these fronts looks particu¬larly natural and contemporary. The linoleum surfaces are robust, durable and easy to clean, and you can bare¬ly see any fingerprints that get left on them.
The new pocket doors can be easily slid into side openings in the kitchen cabinets and so help to save space in an aesthetic way.
Exciting interiors
The outer aesthetic of Häcker’s kitchens is like their face. This year, visitors were par¬ticularly impressed by the innovations hidden behind the ‘faces’. The high-quality SLD pull-outs with their eight millimetre frames were already part of the programme, but they have been given a makeover with new inte¬grated inner lighting, which is now included as standard, just like the SLD pull-out itself. The sustainable new OrganiQ cutlery insert com¬pletes the pictures. These new features are clever solutions that will help you find hid¬den things or pick out matching plates. With the new carcase depth of 610 millimetres, all systemat pull-outs now have 10 per cent more space than the older pull-outs with a depth of 56 centimetres. And this additional space certainly comes in handy!
Space-saving pocket doors
With their minimalist designs, contemporary kitch¬ens nowadays often resemble monolithic sculptures. Clean lines, well-defined blocks and a high degree of functionality define this trend. The new pocket door variants that Häcker added to their programme in autumn 2024 offer another option for removing anything that could distract the eye. The space-saving pocket doors, floor-to-ceiling doors that can be pushed away to the side, can hide kitchens or other solutions that are up to 240 centimetres wide. An integrated folding-sliding mechanism helps the doors to open and close smoothly. Pocket doors can even be used as room separators and to hide work area and storage spaces. The sliding doors simply disappear, thus creating more space and offering greater flexibility.
„“Our commitment to quality can be seen in every little detail of our kitchens, from the precise processing to the careful design.” “
Living stone
Stone veneer is a truly ancient material that Häcker offers for its fronts. It can be used to create unique kitch¬ens, as each stone has its own character and its own pattern. Stone veneer fronts bring a touch of nature into the home and their feel is inimitable. Using natural stone in a kitchen is technically challenging and certainly not the most affordable option out there. But for anyone who wants the stone look, Häcker has now brought out their new surfaces with a range of different granite effects. They have the authentic structure and unique look of real granite, but they offer all the practical advantages of laminated surfaces. Now, if this is too much stone for you, you can intersperse them with coloured fronts – a really eye-catching option that was on display at the in-house exhibition.
All the natural stone fronts, like the granite version shown here in combination with the greige furniture, tell a story.
A concrete look creates urban flair
Even though stone is renowned for being a cold ma¬terial, it’s actually surprisingly warm and homely. Another new range of fronts offers a clear, minimalist and almost industrial look. Häcker recently added kitchens with a raw cement structure and concrete look to their systemat range. Even small pores and bumps can be felt on the textured surfaces. These fronts offer a timeless and styl¬ish aesthetic that’s also incredibly functional. All these alternatives are a great way to add some urban flair to modern kitchens. The showroom kitchens at the in-house exhibition also showed just how fantastic the combina¬tion of open cabinets with illuminated glass shelves and narrow metal frames looks.
Shining and shimmering
Surfaces made from modern polymer glass are a mas¬sive trend right now. Their shimmering effect gives off an elegant and high-quality look and feel. They reflect the light and make rooms look lighter and larger. Roller shutter cabinets with polymer glass doors are an addi¬tional eye-catcher. Another striking and contemporary option from the systemat range is the polished, glossy metallic paint in a new shade of bronze that offers up a new interpretation of the highly sought-after industrial style.
„“Our visionary approach gives planners lots of freedom to design unique kitchens.” “
Elegant living with glass cabinets
The new glass cabinets create an exclusive connec¬tion between the kitchen and other living areas. Narrow metal-framed doors and high-quality, tinted smoked glass give these cabinets a certain timeless elegance. Delicate, indirect lighting inside can be used to draw attention to collectables and decorative objects. As minimalist as these cabinets may be, their refined design and lighting concept make them captivating pieces of furniture.
New additions to the concept130 range
Even though the systemat range took centre-stage at this year’s in-house exhibition, con¬cept130 also had a lot of new things to offer. With the design carcase in titan, which has the same colour inside and out, Häcker is able to provide new planning and combina¬tion options. Thanks to this new colour, kitch¬en designs that use dark fronts can now get a matching, exclusive inner design that looks particularly good with glass-frame doors.
Innovative front highlights
The new VEGAS concept130 kitchen comes in four soft, matt, metallic colours (brown, blue, green and cham¬pagne) and provides a stylish update. The matt shades give off a nice metallic effect in certain lights – classic and elegant. The fronts also feel velvety soft to the touch.
With LINEA, Häcker introduced a new wood effect front with an exclusive slatted design that offers a stylish aesthetic for the entry-level range. The SCALA concept130 fronts introduced last year have been expanded upon with two new on-trend colours: a deep, stimulating baltic blue and a refreshing eucalyptus.
With the new products on show at the in-house exhibi¬tion in September, it is clear to see that Häcker has taken another step towards making their kitchens truly unique.
The metallic effect of the VEGAS fronts from the concept130 range is available in brown, blue, champagne or green, as shown here.
