KV ® launches wood Range Hood Program
GRAND RAPIDS, Michigan, August 15, 2005 — Knape & VogtTM (KV®) Manufacturing Co. (Nasdaq: KNAP) has launched a Range Hood Program that combines the craftsmanship of U.S.-made wood canopies with quality brand-name blowers and hardware components.
The new program has been enthusiastically received at two industry trade shows: the Kitchen and
Bath Industry (K/BIS) Show in May and The Association of Woodworking & Furnishings Suppliers
(AWFS) Show in August.
“With the addition of our new Range Hood Program, we continue to expand our offering of
upscale products for the kitchen,” said Ryan Grevenstuk, Kitchen and Bath product manager.
The KV Range Hood Program includes two canopy widths (30 inches and 36 inches) and three
blower styles. Conduits and all necessary hardware are included. The blowers are manufactured by
Fujioh.
The unfinished wood canopies — which may be painted or stained — are designed to complement
contemporary or traditional kitchens. The elegant, furniture-quality wood grains and moulding
details provide a finishing touch to existing kitchen cabinets. Inside the canopy, a powerful blower
clears away cooking odors with a simple flip of a switch. All components are in stock.
KV brings more than a century of experience to the design, manufacturing and distribution of
functional hardware, storage-related components and ergonomic products for original equipment manufacturers, specialty distributors, office furniture dealers, hardware chains and major home centers throughout the country.
