After all, we have been working with it for over 60 years. This is why a Faber S.P.A. hood is such a breath of fresh air for your kitchen.

Faber S.P.A. stands as an innovator in air technology, developing solutions that are designed for real-life applications. Discover the wide variety of ranges we offer here.

What distinctive or iconic design elements characterise your products
and how do they compare to others in the market ?        

Our product design teams at Faber remain at the forefront of the latest kitchen design trends. They carefully consider factors such as size, colour, material, and quality when finalising product designs.

One example of our forward-thinking approach is seen in our Up & Down technology. In open-concept kitchen and living room combinations, as well as in restricted spaces, there is often the need to choose a suspended hood with a design that can match the interior décor. Faber S.P.A. solves these needs by combining the functionality of a hood with that of a light fitting.
