Seven Decades of Italian Engineering, Right Above Your Range
Faber got its start in Italy in 1955, and within a few years had already built something nobody else had — the world's first purpose-built cooker hood. That pioneering mindset never really stopped. Over the following decades, Faber continued introducing firsts: the first chimney-style wall hood, the first T-shape configuration, and eventually hoods that could monitor real-time air quality right from a touchscreen panel. Today, Faber operates as the dedicated air treatment expert within the Franke Group — a Swiss-rooted organization with over a century of manufacturing heritage behind it. What that means practically is that Faber's design and engineering resources are substantial, and it shows in how their hoods are built and finished.
We chose Faber because they cover the full picture — performance, design, and long-term reliability — without cutting corners on any of the three. Their Perimeter Aspiration technology draws smoke and grease-laden air in from the outer edges of the hood cavity, giving you wider, more consistent capture compared to a single central suction point. Their Sound Pro motor systems are engineered specifically to reduce operating noise without throttling airflow, so you're not choosing between a quiet kitchen and a clean one. The brushed stainless steel finishes are built to hold up to daily cooking — not just look good in a showroom. Whether you're fitting a wall-mount hood over a pro-style range or dropping an insert into a custom cabinet surround, Faber has a well-thought-out option for it.
