Miele made its return to Eurocucina 2024 in Milan – following a six-year hiatus from the fair – as it celebrates its 125th anniversary this year.

Under the motto, ‘The Pulse of Every Kitchen’, products were presented across three core themes – 125 years of Miele, smart home and sustainability – spanning almost 1,000 square metres, which incorporated an ‘Ignition Gate’ with light installations at entry.

Miele unveiled two new colours – Pearl Beige and Obsidian Black Matt – for its handleless ArtLine built-in appliance range.

Pearl Beige is a warm blend of grey and beige, while Obsidian Black Matt responds to the growing trend for matt surface textures.

ArtLine models are based on Miele’s Generation 7000 built-in appliances with full-surface glass fronts and integrated displays. In place of handles, the appliances can be opened by touch made possible by a sensor button integrated into the control open – also known as Touch2Open. This unlocks the door using a motor which then slides down with a soft close action.

The ArtLine range includes ovens, steam ovens and microwave ovens, as well as built-in fully automatic coffee machines, warming drawers, vacuum drawers and built-in wine cabinets.
