ANTIMICROBIAL HANDLES
The first anticontamination handle.
F.lli Razeto & Casareto has worked with esi Antimicrobial System to develop the first ever and still the only handle with antibacterial, antifungal and anticoronavirus technology. Certified anticoronavirus technology.

Flush Line
Created to disappear.
Flush Line is the flush-mounted, removable and retractable nautical handle designed to ensure maximum functionality on board, in the smallest possible space. In nautical environments, handles must function in a context of limited space.
The Flush Line, designed to meet these very specific needs, are minimal design accessories that typify both the style and the form of the handle; it literally "disappears" into the furniture item after use, automatically and completely autonomously returning to its original position. A valued, invisible ally on sea voyages, Flush Line is nail friendly.
