Values: Courageous, innovative, confident, passionate about life and freethinking. BORA is renowned for challenging the status quo and for rethinking the kitchen as a living space with the utmost determination. We are courageous, innovative, confident, passionate about life and freethinking – and this gives rise to our daily pursuit of perfection and the way in which we bring our vision to life and make our mission tangible. These values are incorporated into our products and shape the friendly and mutually respectful way in which we work together.
Positioning: BORA develops and produces innovative premium built-in kitchen appliances with impressive design standards. The BORA X BO steam oven is the logical progression from the cooktop extractor systems. BORA has thus gone from a cooktop extractor specialist to a specialist in the kitchen as a living space. The design blends seamlessly into that of the kitchen, allowing users to focus on what really matters: spending time with others.
BORA: More than cooking. We transform kitchens from functional rooms into genuine living spaces. Through innovative products and services that simplify cooking and promote a healthy lifestyle.
