The kitchen at the centre of the living space with creative solutions

The mantra "the kitchen at the centre", which has inspired the evolution of this environment to date, remains the reference also for the new projects, which include and expand, merging with the other spaces in the home. This is confirmed by Emanuel Colombini, president and cdo of Colombini Group, of which Febal Casa is part: "The kitchen is evolving into an open and identity system, capable of authoritatively interpreting new domestic scenarios," he says.

With this in mind, Febal Casa will be presenting itself at the Salone and Eurocucina with an organic project that conveys the entire vision of the home. "We want to consolidate our leadership in the kitchen world through a distinctive language, where design, innovation and integration of spaces define new living experiences," he confirms. "The Italia market remains our cultural reference, while we accelerate a path of international growth in contexts with the highest potential. The Group closed 2025 with a turnover of 290 million and exports of 15%; the objective is to reach 25-30% in 2030. Opportunities are being developed in the Middle East and the USA, where a Febal Casa store will soon be opened in Las Vegas, following openings in Miami, Scottsdale and Orange County.

For Boffi, the kitchen brand of the Boffi|De Padova group, the American market remains a stable reference horizon, while Asia is growing by 20%; in November 2025, two new monobrand spaces were inaugurated in Wuhan and Shenzhen and the showrooms in Beijing and Shanghai were expanded. While the group boasts a consolidated 2025 turnover of 123 million, of which 75% from exports, the Boffi brand alone contributes 84.3 million. The strategy of Roberto Gavazzi, president and ceo, aims at synergy between the Boffi, ADL and De Padova brands. "We propose ourselves as a single interlocutor able to offer sophisticated and exclusive solutions for the entire living space. With this in mind, we will invest in the research and development of the kitchen project, which this year converges in the new XPL model by Piero Lissoni that integrates and evolves the current collection, an expression of pure volumes and advanced constructive research".

The concept of the kitchen as the emotional fulcrum of the home inspires the Snaidero stand at Eurocucina: the company, which is celebrating its 80th anniversary (founded in 1946 by Rino Snaidero in Majano, Udine), now has Invitalia and Friulia as its main shareholders. "The current context pushes us to go beyond a purely functional vision of the product," explains Edi Snaidero, president of the group, "it is no longer enough to design kitchens that respond to a practical need. Our direction is clear: we want to create objects that generate self-gratification, that excite those who experience them. We are building our positioning in the medium to long term: an ambitious path that aims to strengthen the value of the brand with the objective of doubling turnover in the coming years. At the heart of the strategy is a selective and qualitative consolidation of the distribution network, both in Italia and abroad, with a main focus on international development'. The plan envisages both targeted openings in the fastest growing areas such as India, South Arabia, Indonesia, Cambodia, Vietnam, and the Philippines, and a strengthening in consolidated markets such as the USA, the UK, France, Spain, and Australia.

Franke Home Solution also has something new with the new generation of integrated sink systems Mythos Supernova and Mythos Antlantic, presented during the FuoriSalone in the Milan showroom in Via Pontaccio: both - the first a sink, the second an accessory column next to the sink - are dynamic elements that can disappear when not in use, with a view to maximum integration of the kitchen in the living room. The projection of Franke Home Solution, with a billion in sales by 2025 and a presence in 80 markets, is towards automation and sustainability: "This value is an integral part of our industrial model," emphasises Corrado Mura, CEO of Franke Home Solution. "The group has defined climate objectives validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative, with a 56% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 compared to 2020. In parallel, we are investing in automation, digitisation of production processes and the development of increasingly intelligent kitchen solutions'.
