Press Release

 
2nd June 2006
The Franke Sorter achieves Red Dot Award

The innovative Sorter waste management system from Franke has recently achieved a Red Dot Award for design excellence.

Set up in 1955, the Red Dot Award makes the achievements of companies and designers communicable with the help of a recognised quality label such as the red dot.

The Franke Sorter System, which was one of the first under sink waste management products to be launched in the UK, makes the recycling of household waste extremely easy.

John Swain, product manager for Franke, commented: "In order to encourage people to recycle their waste the process needs to be made as simple as possible. The Sorter enables household waste to be easily segregated and managed and we are delighted that this innovative product has been recognised by the Red Dot Awards."

The hands-free KickMatic (700K) Sorter is operated by a touch of the pedal and opens easily to give access to separated compartments. Franke has also launched the Sorter Motion, which has a smooth closing action (Blum motion).

An animation CD has been produced for Franke customers, which demonstrates how the Sorter can be installed very easily into a 500 or 600mm cabinet, taking just 15 minutes.
