Platform about design and technology in the kitchen, home, and bathroom industry
As in previous years, Keller will be presenting its latest kitchen concepts and innovations at the Küchenmeile on the Gut Böckel estate, in collaboration with countertop supplier Jetstone. Under the theme “The Art of Combining,” Keller demonstrates how its product range offers dealers maximum design freedom—and how they can use this to meet the growing demand for personalized, distinctive kitchen concepts. In addition, the recently awarded Red Dot ‘Best of the Best’ design prize for the bio-based kitchen line will be prominently featured.
The art of (endless) combinations.
Keller offers a product range that is unique in the Benelux, featuring a distinctive palette of colors, materials, styles, and price ranges. The Keller Color Concept supports this design freedom through a carefully curated color palette in which all shades, finishes, and materials can be perfectly combined with one another—from subtle tone-on-tone to bold contrasts. This enables dealers to create a suitable and distinctive design for every customer across a wide range of interior styles and trends.
The product range also translates into budget flexibility. From entry-level to premium: dealers can easily put together kitchens that fit within the customer’s budget, without compromising on aesthetics or design quality.
By using biobased materials, Keller is also targeting consumers who want to choose a beautiful kitchen for today while taking into account the impact on future generations. At launch, Keller introduced four colors, tailored to the target group where demand is highest: the project market. The goal has always been to further expand the product line starting in 2027, with the ambition to completely replace the traditional particleboard-melamine line with the biobased variant by 2030. Due to the great success and market acceptance on the one hand, and the demand for more colors to encourage the switch on the other, it was decided to bring this timeline forward. That is why the range has already been expanded from 4 to 17 colors as of July 1, 2026. As of January 1, 2027, it will be expanded even further to a total of 24 colors.
Through these developments, Keller underscores that sustainable materials and high-quality design can go hand in hand, without compromising on aesthetics or freedom of choice. And this has recently been reaffirmed by winning international recognition at the highest level.
Keller Kitchens has been awarded the Red Dot Best of the Best Award: Design Concept 2026 for its bio-based kitchen lines enduura® elba. This makes parent company DKG the first Dutch manufacturer in the kitchen industry to receive this international recognition.
The award is an important validation of the course DKG has been charting for years: developing sustainable innovation that does not remain confined to a niche but becomes accessible to a broad market. While sustainability is often still presented in the market primarily as an ambition or a marketing claim, DKG’s award provides independent, international proof. A professional jury of experts recognizes that sustainability, innovation, design quality, and affordability are not mutually exclusive but can, in fact, reinforce one another.
With the expansion of the glass-fronted cabinet lineup to include 9 frame colors and new glass types, dealers now have even more freedom to tailor glass cabinets to home decor styles and customer preferences.
In addition, Keller is introducing round stoves with a wood-grain finish, complementing the Ithaca series, which features a realistic wood-grain look. This addition responds to the trend toward softer shapes and natural materials, which are increasingly being used in contemporary kitchen designs.
In addition, as usual, there will be updates to colors, cabinets, and materials, which can be viewed at the booth.
“With our new products, we’re giving dealers concrete tools to stand out in a competitive market,” said Rob van Steen, director of dealer relations. “We’re showing that combining materials, colors, and features results in kitchens that are beautiful, affordable, and future-proof.”
“With the expansion of the enduura® ”With this series, we’re making biobased kitchens accessible and appealing to a broad audience. We see this as an important step toward a more sustainable industry."
During the Sunday evening event at Gut Böckel, from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Keller will celebrate winning the Red Dot ‘Best of the Best’ award together with dealers and industry peers. The evening is the premier annual networking event, where existing relationships are strengthened and there is opportunity to make new connections within the industry. This takes place in an informal setting featuring live cooking and music, together with trade show partners Jetstone, Franke, and MHK.
