CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
CONSTRUCTION
Empire is technically an extremely challenging product. It requires 3D milling equipment with the highest possible precision and is made with a high level of craftsmanship, delicate assembly and lacquering process.
DELIVERY AND MAINTENANCE
We deliver Empire fully mounted. For export destinations, we recommend packaging in a wooden crate. Empire is equipped with adjustable feet, so it is easy to level the cabinet in a perfectly horizontal position. Empire can be installed freestanding. Nevertheless, we recommend for security reasons to place Empire against a wall.
