Hettich will be honored at Interzum 2017 in Cologne, Germnay, for its ComfortSwing lifting system, which raises the dishwasher’s bottom rack to the level of the top rack.

“Hettich developed ComfortSwing to make loading and emptying the dishwasher more ergonomic,” the company said in a statement. “The result is a lifting system that is good for the back and steels the show from the host of any kitchen party.

“Because ComfortSwing makes kitchen work easier and is a pleasure to use. Raising the bottom rack to the height of the top rack is particularly convenient for the user and, with integrated Silent System, also gentle on dishes and glasses.”
