Kitchen zones

It is important as early as the kitchen planning stage to take account of personal cooking habits. For example, it can be decided which work surfaces are necessary. By arranging everything according to zones, every item can be in reach where it is needed.

'Consumables' zone

The 'consumables' zone is where food can be stored. Good accessibility should be taken into account during the planning.

'Non consumables' zone

The 'non consumables zone' is the place for cutlery, plates and glasses. It is also practical if the dishwasher is also placed near this area.

'Cleaning' zone

The dishwasher and sink are situated in this zone. Space also needs to be provided here to store detergent, sponges, etc. A sink drawer below the sink creates the ideal storage space in this respect.

'Preparation' zone

All utensils for preparing food can be found between the sink and the hob. Everything in the larder units is always to hand and close to the work surface.

'Cooking' zone

Pots, pans and cooking utensils receive their place close to the hob.

These five kitchen zones can be applied in every kitchen, regardless of the shape and size. For right-handed people, the consumables, non-consumables, cleaning preparation and cooking zones are in a clockwise arrangement. For left-handed people it is the other way around. As such, the zones can be quickly passed through during cooking, and walking distances are limited. Everything can be found in the spot where it should be used.

Van Hoecke

The Belgian family company Van Hoecke, based in Sint-Niklaas, has been a partner to the furniture industry since 1967. As a distributor of hinges, lift systems and drawer systems for the Austrian brand Blum for kitchen and interior builders, they have been the market leader for years. In addition, with ORGALUX, they have created an in-house brand of inner divider systems and kitchen aids. Since 2014, Van Hoecke has marketed its own industrially-made wooden drawer system, under the brand TA’OR. With its in-house brands, Van Hoecke is looking further afield than the Benelux, and is already exporting to Switzerland, France, Germany, the United Kingdom and Israel. Thanks to the commitment of its over 280 dedicated employees, and ongoing investment in technology and automation, the company is growing year on year.
