Tanova Simplex Laundry Hamper Systems
Description

FIT’s range of Tanova pull out laundry hampers are space-efficient and practical, staying out of sight, yet easily accessed when needed. The Simplex pull out laundry hamper range features soft close medium weight runners that are sturdy and reliable for residential situations.

Powder coated electro-galv steel frames and baskets are fabricated in Auckland by FIT’s partners at FEL Group. Plastic hampers are made in Christchurch at Talbot. For laundry cabinets from 300mm to 450mm, the Simplex pull out laundry hamper includes some options to attach to a fixed ‘drawer’ front, some to install behind a hinged door and some ‘frame and basket’ options.

Baskets – some powder coated steel and some plastic – are vented to facilitate airflow, helping to avoid musty odours. In addition, there are Simplex Plus options for 400mm and 450mm cabinets plus models designed for compatibility with Legrabox drawers (500mm and 600mm cabinets).

Tanova Simplex and Simplex Plus laundry hampers carry the official NZ Made licence.

Key Features

Limitations on Use

Suitable for residential use, taking into account the following:

  • Be familiar with the load capacity of the unit and do not exceed it.
  • When opening and closing the hamper or when putting items into it, do not apply strong downward force as this may damage the runners.
  • Do not use caustic cleaners on any part of the hamper.
  • Some laundry powders are particularly caustic. If they spill onto or into the drawers, remove the powder promptly with a vacuum cleaner, soft brush or damp cloth taking care to re-wipe the surface clean after rinsing cloth free of substance and ensure it is dried well.
  • Refer to the Care & Maintenance document for further detail.
In-Service History

FIT released their first Tanova laundry hamper range in February 2012 and believe this to be a world first. Since then a number of innovations have occurred within the range, including the Simplex range, the Simplex Plus sub-range for wider cabinets, frame and hamper models to sit within an existing base mounted drawer, a Designer series and ‘frame and hamper’ options to be compatible with Legrabox drawers.
