BORA
We want to make cooking easier for people and enable them to enjoy a healthier lifestyle and more attractive kitchen environments. We offer our customers a holistic concept with perfectly coordinated products that cover all workflows in the kitchen.
Willi Bruckbauer is the heart of BORA: a visionary, a creative mind and the driving force behind the revolutionary cooktop extractor systems. With over 20 years of experience in the kitchen industry, the qualified master joiner has an excellent understanding of the essential requirements for a modern kitchen: designing a living space that combines functionality with aesthetics and delights every day anew.
Classic extractor hoods do not fulfil this requirement. They are loud, inefficient and unsightly. They also significantly restrict creative freedom when designing kitchens. gocWilli Bruckbauer’s vision was to develop a powerful extractor system that fulfils the highest technical and aesthetic criteria. His relentless inventive spirit resulted in a groundbreaking solution that extracts cooking vapours more effectively than ever before.
Only by being open-minded and inquisitive, and questioning the status quo can we be progressive.
We are driven by innovation – we rethink the kitchen, question conventions and courageously strike out in new directions. Our aim is to develop kitchen solutions that are not only functional but also aesthetically appealing and inspiring. With our innovative cooktop extractor systems, high-performance professional steam ovens and sophisticated refrigeration and freezing systems, we are creating a whole new dimension of cooking and living. Our products combine outstanding technical precision with timeless design and maximum user friendliness. This results in living spaces that impress, enrich everyday life – and form the basis for extraordinary cooking experiences.
The research and development centre in Niederndorf is BORA’s hotbed of innovation. The site also houses our Marketing, Product Management, International Order Processing and Customer Service departments.
Raubling was the birthplace of BORA – and is still home to our head office with our Administration, Finance and IT departments as well as the BORA Academy.
BORA Herford has been a central site in the heart of the kitchen furniture industry since October 2023 and hosts the annual BORA Experience Days each September.
A new era: the team has competed as Red Bull - BORA - hansgrohe since the Tour de France 2024, strengthened by Olympic gold medallist Primož Roglič.
235 wins with BORA as the main sponsor, including 27 national championship titles and 1 world championship title.
With a focus on stage races and general classification specialists, Jai Hindley won the first Grand Tour podium position for BORA - hansgrohe at the Giro d’Italia as well as overall victory in the maglia rosa.
The team stays true to its principal of promoting young talent and impresses with its open-minded approach to unusual solutions, which have led to athletes joining it from the worlds of mountain biking, ski mountaineering, mountain running and biathlon.
Since first becoming main sponsor in 2015 and establishing the main sponsorship partnership with hansgrohe in 2017, the team has greatly developed. Peter Sagan, Pascal Ackermann and Sam Bennett have significantly contributed to its success.
“The end of the extractor hood” – this vision gave rise to the establishment of BORA, with the aim of creating more attractive kitchens as living spaces. We regard the kitchen as the heart of the home where people come together and create the freedom for unique design.
