Matte induction hob with extractor – why are architects and investors increasingly choosing this solution?

 

Matte surfaces are winning users’ hearts—not only for their aesthetics but also for their practical benefits. If you’re wondering whether this is a passing trend or a real shift in modern interior design, this article is for you. You’ll learn why a matte induction hob with a built-in extractor is becoming the number one choice in premium kitchens. 

Matte black pairs beautifully with natural materials—wood, stone and warm lighting.

Matte glass – the technology that changes the game

At first glance, a matte hob seems to differ from a glossy one only in looks. In practice, that difference makes a big impact in everyday use.

Goodbye fingerprints and streaks

Anyone who has had a classic, glossy hob knows how hard it is to keep it immaculate. One cooking session is enough for marks from pots and hands to appear. Matte glass effectively disguises minor dirt and fingerprints—the kitchen looks fresh even after a busy day of cooking.

Durability and scratch resistance

The concern that matte glass wears out faster is no longer justified. Today’s matte, tempered-glass hobs are resistant to high temperatures and minor mechanical damage . What’s more—even if a micro-scratch appears, it is far less visible than on a glossy surface.

Easy cleaning and fewer chores

A matte hob doesn’t require frequent polishing. A soft microfiber cloth and a gentle cleaner are enough to restore its perfect look. This solution will be appreciated by anyone who likes a tidy kitchen but doesn’t want to spend time constantly cleaning it.

Calm, timeless aesthetics

Matte finishes bring elegance and harmony to the interior. They don’t reflect light, giving the arrangement a sense of depth and calm . Such surfaces pair perfectly with natural materials—wood, stone or concrete. No wonder architects reach for them so readily in their projects.

Investors’ concerns – facts instead of myths

When choosing a matte induction hob with an extractor, two questions often arise:
Will the matte surface get damaged?
Will it really be easy to maintain?

The answer to both is yes—this solution is durable and practical.
Matte glass is not a coating or a delicate overlay but the result of a special processing of tempered glass . It’s a material designed for everyday use—robust, resilient and easy to care for. Smudges and marks are also less visible, so the kitchen maintains a fresh look for longer.

Induction hob with built-in extractor – maximum functionality and order

The next step toward a modern kitchen is combining two functions in one device—the hob and the extractor. It’s a solution that quite literally organises the space .

With an extractor integrated into the hob:

• you gain complete design freedom—you’re no longer limited by a bulky hood over the island,
  

• the kitchen stays open and light, ideal for contemporary kitchen-living setups,
  

• odours are captured right at the source, before they spread throughout the room.
  
  

It’s a technology that blends design, comfort and efficiency. No surprise that countertop-extractor hobs are appearing more and more often in architectural studio projects.
