PRODUCT HIGHLIGHT<br />

Uniclic for<br />

faster and simpler<br />

furniture assembly<br />

Ease of installation, intuitive assembly<br />

methods, and fewer fittings in building<br />

furniture are in demand with end users<br />

now, as people are spending more time<br />

at home after the COVID-19 outbreak<br />

and investing more in home furnishing,<br />

fitting-outs, and fixing and replacing of<br />

old furniture.<br />

Uniclic for furniture, a click system that<br />

makes assembly work more intuitive,<br />

is said to offer the above. It reduces<br />

preparation and assembly times, and<br />

less damage or mistakes will occur<br />

during assembly.<br />

Developed by Unilin Technologies,<br />

Uniclic for furniture is a tongue-andgroove<br />

technology for connecting<br />

two furniture panels at a 90° angle.<br />

The tongue-and-groove profiles allow<br />

furniture panels to be assembled<br />

by either angling or snapping them<br />

together without the need for tools,<br />

fittings, screws or glue. Furthermore, the<br />

tongue-and-groove profiles are milled<br />

directly into the material itself, which<br />

ensures a sturdy connection.<br />

The click technology<br />

is designed for<br />

different kinds of<br />

furniture, such as<br />

drawers and cabinets<br />

The Uniclic connection is designed<br />

fibreboard (HDF), solid wood,<br />

engineered wood and plywood. It can<br />

be used for various kinds of furniture,<br />

such as storage, wardrobe, drawers,<br />

kitchen, bathroom, office, and others.<br />

containing a click connection is, as<br />
