Space for new opportunities - CLIP top BLUMOTION

The new hinge solution released by manufacturer Blum

Australia – April, 2011

An unobtrusive fitting solution in the form of CLIP top BLUMOTION is the latest innovation to be released by manufacturer Blum. Winner of the internationally recognised and much sort after iF product design award, the new hinge solution meets the trend towards sleek and simple design.

Doors that close softly and silently are already standard features of modern furniture. However, until now, the soft closing action could only be achieved with a separate dampening system that had to be drilled in or clipped on. Due to Blum’s continuous effort to perfect motion, the BLUMOTION feature has now been integrated into the hinge itself. The challenge lay in fitting a highly complex system into a very small space within the hinge boss.

“Technology, engineering and innovation never cease to amaze me and Blum’s relentless drive to perfection is not only inspiring, but it’s what makes Blum and Blum products stand out from the rest. CLIP top BLUMOTION is a technical masterpiece that functions like clockwork”, comments Marketing communications manager, Alicia Draper.

The CLIP top BLUMOTION hinge also features a deactivation switch if the doors are small or light. And as for thick doors, the improved pivot point ensures doors open without knocking against each other whilst it is possible to achieve a smaller door gap.

CLIP top BLUMOTION can be fitted with existing mounting plates and the hinge also has the tried and tested 3-dimensional adjustment technology which makes adjustment a piece of cake.

Blum turns the opening and closing of furniture into a graceful and enhanced experience. For over 50 years, quality has been the highest principal for the development and manufacture of Blum products. Their fitting systems epitomise excellent quality with their well-thought-out function, recognised design and durability.
