RKW’s growth continues as it welcomes new brands to its stand at Ambiente this year, with Tower, Swan, Barbary & Oak, Wade, Royal Victoria, Milton Brook and more being showcased.
RKW will also be announcing two new partnerships with world-renowned brands at the show.
Tower
As RKW’s flagship brand, Tower boasts over a century of British manufacturing and design excellence. From SDA to cookware and kitchen accessories, Tower provides high-quality everyday kitchen and homeware essentials. Pushing innovation within every Tower product category, RKW has new technology and product designs to exhibit at Ambiente.
Tower Sera
Introducing the newest collection from Tower – Sera. The elegant products are inspired by luxurious designs with a sophisticated colour palette. The smoked black complements the classic matte black, midnight blue and grey finish. This new collection will be available as a kettle, toaster as well as housewares, such as bread bins and canisters.
Tower VIPs
Vortx Intelligent Performance System is Tower’s new technology, created to make cooking in an air fryer easier. An internal sensor detects the temperature of the food, utilising AI to calculate the required cooking time, taking the guesswork out of cooking. The air fryer will also have a choice of six modes including fries, chicken, shrimp, steak, cupcakes and fish.
Tower Air Fryer Accessories
From Tower’s success within the Air Fryer category, it is now looking for more ways to improve the cooking experience when using an air fryer, producing innovative cooking accessories. Crafted with sustainability at the forefront, the accessories are reusable and feature a robust design.
The silicone trays utilise a unique ribbed texture using Lineair technology, ensuring excellent heat distribution and air circulation, as well as the collection of excess fat and oil. The trays are available in various shapes and sizes.
Tower is also introducing three types of reusable liners, gold perforated liners, black perforated liners, and black base liners.
New Tower SmartStart products
There are four ranges in the SmartStart collection – Classic, Gourmet, Forged, and Ultra Forged – each with various methods of manufacturing such as Pressed and Forged Aluminium. There is also a clear trade up across the collection to fit every use and budget. At Ambiente this year, Tower will be exhibiting new SmartStart products: pan sets, a wok, a multi-pan and a grill pan, all available in the four ranges.
With the new products comes the second burst of the TV marketing campaign, showcasing the red tick technology, shown as part of the lucrative run-up to Pancake Day in February.
Tower Cerastone Pro
Cerastone Pro takes the Tower cookware collection to the next level as a high-quality upgrade to the Cerastone cooking range. Complete with a four-layer non-stick coating that is 15x stronger than standard non-stick coatings, while a 25-year guarantee ensures that the pans are designed for longevity.
The energy-efficient Inducto base ensures every pan heats up 25% faster. The Inducto base encourages thorough cooking with no heat spots, and can be used on any hob type, including induction. The ultra-tough forged aluminium body ensures the pans are durable and are oven safe up to 220C for full cooking versatility.
Tower Diamo
The cookware collection from Tower draws the eye to brighten up any kitchen with Diamo’s shimmering finish and an embossed design to elevate food out of oil and cooking juices, ensuring thorough and even cooking without any hot spots. The collection has great cooking versatility as it can be used on any hob type and is oven safe up to 170C.
Tower Ozone bins
As part of the new sensor bin ranges, Tower has developed the Ozone bins, complete with Ozone Filter Fresh Technology to help reduce unpleasant odours, filtering out particles for cleaner, fresher air. An additional carbon filter complements the technology, soaking up excess moisture from within the bin to help remove unwanted smells.
Each bin has a generous capacity of 50L, 60L and 65L. The 50L Ozone recycling bin has the sensor lid on top with a pull-out drawer at the bottom with a removable bucket, for separating out household waste.
