Compact Platform Design for Flexible Installation
The new compact platform has been engineered to solve one of the most common challenges with downdraft hobs: space below the worktop. With a minimum installation height of just 170mm, it allows the hob and integrated extractor to fit into shallower kitchen cabinets that would normally be unsuitable for vented induction systems. This makes it an excellent choice for contemporary kitchens where slimline units, low plinths or internal drawers are a priority.
By reducing the space required beneath the hob, the Compact platform helps preserve valuable storage – something often lost with traditional downdraft designs. You can keep drawers, pull-out storage or waste systems directly below the cooking area, rather than sacrificing them to bulky motor housings or ducting. This smarter use of space is especially beneficial in smaller kitchens or open-plan layouts where every centimetre matters.
Despite its reduced height, performance is not compromised. The Compact platform still supports powerful extraction and efficient airflow, ensuring steam and odours are captured effectively at source. For installers and kitchen designers, this also means greater flexibility during planning and easier integration into a wider range of cabinet systems – making the Compact platform a practical, future-ready solution for modern kitchen design.
Smarter Cooking Meets Seamless Extraction
Our induction downdraft hobs bring together powerful induction cooking and discreet built-in extraction in one streamlined appliance. Designed for modern kitchens, they remove steam, smoke and odours directly at source – right where cooking happens – helping keep the air clear without the need for a separate cooker hood.
With a sleek glass surface, responsive heat control and intuitive operation, CATA induction downdraft hobs deliver efficient cooking alongside effortless maintenance. The integrated extractor activates only when needed, preserving clean lines, maximising space and allowing your kitchen design to take centre stage – without compromising on performance.
By combining advanced induction technology with intelligent airflow management, our induction downdraft hobs offer a quieter, more energy-efficient way to cook. Heat is delivered precisely to the pan for faster results and better control, while rising vapours are captured instantly before they spread around the room. The result is a calmer, cleaner cooking environment – ideal for open plan living and contemporary kitchen layouts where design and practicality need to work hand in hand.
