At interzum 2025, Titus will demonstrate its commitment to removing complexity, enhancing reliability, and delivering excellence through innovative hardware solutions that give manufacturers a competitive edge. Visitors to Hall 10.2, Stand H069 in Cologne will discover how Titus’ precision-engineered products simplify furniture assembly while improving manufacturing efficiency and end-user satisfaction.
Consumer Assembly Friendliness – a design philosophy that delivers results
At the heart of Titus’ approach is Consumer Assembly Friendliness (CAF), a design philosophy that guides product development toward solutions that make furniture assembly easier, faster and more reliable. This approach benefits everyone in the supply chain – from manufacturers seeking production efficiencies to installers working on-site and end-users assembling furniture at home.
“We’re committed to always offering innovative and practical solutions that give our customers maximum efficiency, precision and reliability,” says Phil Beddoe, UK Managing Director. “Our CAF principles translate directly into measurable advantages for manufacturers, including reduced assembly times, fewer errors, simplified training requirements, and ultimately, enhanced customer satisfaction.”
T-type PressTo – revolutionising hinge installation
The T-type PressTo hinge is a significant advancement in cabinet hardware. This innovative solution features a tool-free cup fixing system with an audible click-lock mechanism that confirms secure installation. The result is dramatically reduced assembly time and enhanced confidence in the installation process.
When combined with Titus’ unique 3Way snap-on mounting system, which allows intuitive hinge-to-plate mounting in three directions, the T-type PressTo sets a new standard for quick and reliable cabinet assembly. This is particularly valuable for tall cabinets with multiple hinges, where traditional installation methods can be time-consuming and challenging.
The T-type family includes additional variations to meet diverse design requirements:
• T-type Noir: Featuring a sleek, discreet aesthetic that blends seamlessly with contemporary cabinet designs while maintaining the family’s performance advantages.
T-type-i 170°: Designed for applications requiring exceptional stability and a wide opening angle of 170 degrees, ideal for cabinets with inner drawers or pull-out systems
All T-type hinges deliver Titus’ renowned Confident Close action, a consumer-preferred soft-close mechanism characterised by late-start deceleration and quiet landing. This engineered closing action enhances the perceived quality of furniture while ensuring reliable performance throughout the product’s lifetime.
Quickfit TL5 and System 6.2 – advanced connection solutions
The Quickfit TL5 ‘Full Metal Jacket’ dowel connector maintains its position as the industry benchmark for reliability and strength. It is the only solution engineered to reliably engage in 5mm dowel holes.
It creates exceptionally strong joints in all common wood-based materials, including MDF, chipboard, and solid wood, without requiring additional wooden dowels.
The expanding steel sleeve provides high resistance to torsion and pull-out, ensuring rigid furniture construction that maintains its integrity even when repeatedly disassembled and reassembled. This makes it particularly valuable for ready-to-assemble furniture where long-term durability is essential.
Complementing the Quickfit TL5 is System 6.2, a next-generation square-shaped connector that combines enhanced stability with easy knock-in insertion. Its contemporary aesthetic aligns perfectly with modern furniture designs, and it is ideal for modular closet systems, walk-in wardrobes, and shelving units. The system’s robust design and stylish appearance offer a compelling solution for today’s evolving interior spaces.
Slimline+ – precision-engineered drawer systems
The Slimline+ drawer system focuses on effortless installation and precise adjustment. Its three-dimensional front adjustment mechanism ensures perfect alignment of drawer fronts, enhancing the overall aesthetic of the finished furniture.
A colour-coded adjustment panel positioned at the front of the drawer provides intuitive access for quick and accurate fine-tuning. This user-friendly approach simplifies the installation process while ensuring consistent, professional results. The system’s sleek 14mm side panels also maximise interior drawer space, offering optimal storage capacity without compromising strength or stability.
Adaptive response technology – perfecting motion control
Titus’s Adaptive Response Technology (ART) for damping is used across its product range. It automatically adjusts to door weight and closing speed, ensuring consistent, rebound-free motion regardless of application conditions.
The ART system offers many benefits that enhance usability and performance. It operates effortlessly, requiring low opening force for ease of use. Its versatility accommodates various door weights with a single damper, making it suitable for different settings. Additionally, the ART system’s durability protects its components, ensuring longevity in demanding conditions. It also guarantees reliable performance in extreme temperatures from -30°C to 150°C.
Manufacturing technologies for enhanced production
Beyond consumer-facing hardware, Titus will showcase technologies that enhance manufacturing processes. Titusonic® uses ultrasound welding instead of adhesives to create stronger, real-time verified bonds, improving productivity and quality control. FastFit simplifies the pre-insertion of Quickfit dowels for faster assembly, better CAF scores, and increased consumer satisfaction.
