Nolte, Where Design and Quality Meet in the UAE
A well designed kitchen can be quite a personal thing. While some prefer closed kitchens and defined living areas, others will yearn for a modern open floor plan design where kitchens flow effortlessly into living spaces. Some consumers want a kitchen that has massive storage options, where others prioritize a kitchen that is designed to accommodate large appliances.
Fortunately, Nolte FZE has had over a decade of experience across the region designing kitchens that become the heart of every home, no matter what the needs are. Nolte FZE is the subsidiary of Nolte Group, a company with rich heritage, first founded in 1958. The family owned company’s modular kitchens have been 100% manufactured in Germany for nearly 7 decades.
“When we brought Nolte Küchen into Middle East markets in 2010, there was not a lot of knowledge about German kitchen brands,” says Mr. Selva Kumar Rajulu, Managing Director of Nolte FZE. “Today we’re not only a functional kitchen manufacturer, we’re also well known in the region as an aspirational kitchen design brand, offering the latest trends and design innovations.”
Unique and timeless Nolte Küchen designs are featured in over 1,000 kitchens at the Harmony Villas at Tilal Al Ghaf by Majid Al Futtaim.
Nolte Küchen is a popular choice for the industry’s leading designers, developers and architects in the Middle East and can be found in some of the most prestigious projects in the region. The company has supplied over 10,000 luxury kitchens for developers like Nakheel, Saadiyat Development, ADCE, DIB, Farglory and Velocity Development including Majid Al Futtaim’s premium Dubai community, the Harmony Villas at Tilal Al Ghaf. The kitchens feature sleek integrated lighting in glass cabinetry, handless designs and beautiful wood grains.
For both mega developments and design focused projects, Nolte FZE works closely with industry stakeholders to create kitchens that offer excellent value and German engineering, never compromising on innovation nor quality.
While Nolte FZE’s operations extend to over 30 countries across the Middle East, Asia and Africa, in 2023 the company experienced record growth in the UAE, boasting its most successful year to date. Nolte works with Universal Trading Company (of Universal Group) as the partner of Nolte Küchen in the UAE.
“Our relationship with Nolte has been very successful for us. Jointly, we lead the market not only in the number of kitchens we supply but also in our forward thinking approach to aesthetics and modern functionality,” says Universal Group CEO, Mr. Mohamed Shabeeb Al Dhaheri.
Caramel and white shine as a harmonious duo in Nolte Küchen’s new 2024 innovations.
Universal’s award winning Nolte Küchen flagship showroom in Dubai is open to the public and designers by appointment to discover the latest product innovations and Nolte’s wide range of fronts and finishes. In the UAE, Universal operates three Nolte Küchen showrooms in Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Al Ain.
“Nolte is proof that quality and durability can co-exist with beautiful design and innovative elements.” says Nolte FZE Executive Director, Öznur Karakaş “Our design focused premium range, nolteneo, has created a buzz amongst industry insiders. They are finding that the same quality Nolte is known for can be created with nolteneo’s cutting edge design, clean lines and integrated lighting.”
Looking forward to another successful year ahead, Nolte Küchen welcomes architects, designers and developers to over 65 showrooms across the Middle East, Asia and Africa.
