Black hoods complete restaurant interiors

Black hoods have been desired among restaurateurs for a long time, and now their wishes have been answered to. All Climecon hoods and ventilation ceilings are available in black. We presented the hoods in black at the FinnBuild fair.

In addition to efficient air purification, options are also required in terms of the appearance of professional kitchen ventilation solutions. This poses challenges for manufacturers. Climecon’s black air terminal devices have been widely used in stylish locations around the world, but now style with uncompromised performance is also available in commercial kitchens.

The durable blackening process is ideal for kitchens

No paint or coating is used for Climecon’s all-black hoods or ventilation ceilings, instead, the steel parts are blackened in a unique process. Kitchen ventilation solutions are made of stainless steel, which is suitable for the food industry due to its durability, hygiene factors, and fire safety. With blackening, the surface and shine of the steel remain as before, and the stylish result remains finished for a considerable time.

The durable blackening process is especially suitable for the high demands of professional kitchens, as no chemicals or degradable materials are allowed on the premises. The hoods and ventilation ceilings are factory-made black, so no time is spent e.g. covering or coating the equipment. “I see a huge potential in black hoods for increasingly popular open kitchens,” says Ville Wallendahr, business director of professional kitchen ventilation solutions at Climecon.
