Designer KB Awards 2020 Kitchen GOLD WINNER 2020: Renzo by Daval, made from 100% recycled materials
Leading British designer and manufacturer of quality fitted furniture, Daval, has been crowned the GOLD WINNER for ‘Innovation in Kitchen Product Design’ at this year’s Designer KB awards, with its FSC Certified Renzo Furniture: the eco alternative for the modern world.
Every autumn the prestigious Designer Awards is a hotly anticipated calendar event for the kbb and architectural design industry, celebrating the work of outstanding designers, residential and commercial projects as well as leading manufacturers for innovation in product design.
The winners were announced at the debut COVID-Safe virtual awards event on 18th November 2020, at The De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in Central London. Renzo’s recycled credentials stood out to the judges as a clear step forward for the KBB industry, at a time when sustainability is high on public agenda.
Simon Bodsworth, Managing Director, Daval says, “We are delighted to be recognised by our peers for Renzo, especially when up against so many worthy contenders this year. Launching Renzo at KBB in March demonstrated our confidence in growing the eco-friendly luxury market and we got a massive response from retailers – all positive. Winning a Gold Award affirms the huge potential we now have for increasing sustainability throughout the industry, as every door in the Renzo range is made from 100% recycled material and FSC Certified.”
Daval has a track record for its commitment to product innovation and UK manufacturing, with a closed-loop production process in place so that factory wastage is used to fuel a biomass heater which warms its offices. Simon says, “We are proud to keep raising the standard for design and utility in the KBB industry with a combination of the best of the latest technology and traditional joinery techniques to create made-to-measure, made-to-order furniture to optimize family life in. The kitchen is absolutely pivotal to modern life and we want to empower our end users to live their best lives with the lightest carbon footprint possible: as well as give acclaimed designers a sophisticated choice of elements when creating today’s kitchen and living areas.”
With the UK Government announcing plans for ‘a green industrial revolution’ in response to climate change, Daval is proud to be breaking new ground in the KBB industry with a dynamic approach to sustainable furniture design and creative thinking.
“We are proud to be a leader in contemporary British design and believe that 2021 will be an exciting time for Renzo, this cutting-edge product. Our stocks of Renzo are building, and we are pleased to announce the collection will be available to order from January 2021. We look forward to introducing Renzo to even more showrooms, homes and developments up and down the country, so that we can create a more sustainable future, one kitchen at a time” says Simon.
The Renzo kitchen furniture collection is new for 2020 and inspired by growing demand for urban eco-design. Renzo by Daval Furniture presents a sustainable kitchen alternative with rich textural variety. Available in five new high-texture door finishes:
[1] Charred Japanese Wood, inspired by the ancient architectural technique Yakisugi: a traditional Japanese method of wood preservation that slightly chars the surface of the wood for greater durability, design appeal and resistance against water
[2] Character Oak Tobacco: defined by its authentic grain patterns, small knots and dark variations of colour, this new wood-effect finish recreates the look of distressed wooden planks
[3] Character Oak Natural: designed with authentic grain patterns, small knots and light variations of colour, this new wood-effect door finish simulates the look and feel of real wood
[4] Artstone Quartz Grey finish: decorative stone effect door with textured dark grey finish
