GemLine™ modules offer bespoke design and flexible cooking
options
Electrolux, the worldwide leader in modular cooking solutions for professionals, has adapted its specialized
induction and gas modules for home kitchens.
Professional chefs demand power, productivity and flexibility in hobs that match their precise needs. Electrolux, which
has been customizing hobs for professionals for decades, is now offering custom hobs designed to integrate into home
kitchens.
“GemLine™ modular units have been created for people who not only want their kitchen to look great but who want to
be able to cook exactly the way they want to and feel confident their equipment will back them up when they want to try
something new,” says Pierre Duhamel, VP Distribution & Channel Development of Electrolux EMEA, which has
equipped the kitchens of nearly half the Michelin chefs in Europe. “With GemLine™, there is no compromise between
design and results.”
The modules are part of the company’s new Inspiration Range, which blends modern, architectural lines and authentic
materials in an elegant, distinctive design. “Our range has a character all its own, yet it integrates into your kitchen, your
personality,” says Per Börjesson, Senior Design Manager for the Electrolux brand. “The design is quiet, yet the
appliances are powerful to help you unleash your creativity.”
Integration with other appliances
The distinctive, transparent glass modules integrate into any kitchen style and can be combined easily with other
materials – wood, stainless steel, marble, for example – or more glass. They also integrate seamlessly with the other
appliances the Electrolux Inspiration Range, which provides full visual alignment in hobs, ovens, fridges, dishwashers,
washing machines and dryers.
GemLine™ offers a selection of induction and gas modules to match the preferred cooking methods of the most
exacting chefs. The grill plate, for example, evenly distributes and retains the heat for perfect grilling. With anti-stick
coating, it is easy to clean and silicone parts avoid sliding on the glass ceramic. “The GemLine™ Grill plate is a real
premium accessory for induction modules within the Inspiration Range,” says Daniel Arler, VP Product Line - Kitchen of
Electrolux EMEA.
With the innovative InfiHeat™ thickfilm technology, the Teppan Yaki module guarantees an optimal even heat
distribution and is ideal for grilling and pan-frying, enabling the preparation of fresh-tasting and healthy dishes.
“Japanese Teppan Yaki is adding a new and delicious style of cooking to consumers’ repertoire,” says Daniel Arler,
SVP Product Line Kitchen of Electrolux EMEA. “One can prepare it with confidence, using this purpose-designed
Teppan Yaki module, just like a professional chef in Japan.”
Intuitive DirectAccess controls on induction modules create a natural interaction between the appliance and the person
using it. The cooking level is set with a single touch and fine-tuned with a slider. Premium white LED readouts beneath
the glass display the status of the burners at a glance.
