Description

The Vauth-Sagel ESSENTIO® VS TAL® Larder Flex is a full-extension, pull-out tall cabinet storage system designed for utility room and residential joinery applications. Part of the ESSENTIO style range, it features a monochrome aesthetic constructed from ultra-thin 70mm high formed sheet steel with powder-coated surfaces and integrated non-slip matting.

Manufactured in Germany, the system reconfigures classic pantry pull-outs into three pre-configured utility storage sets:

Flex Broom: Configured for broom or mop storage, cleaning supplies, and sponges, with a open lower area for taller items and an integrated roll holder.
Flex Iron: Designed for ironing board, iron, and accessory storage, featuring a hook panel for hangers/laundry bags and dedicated space for distilled water and starch.
Flex Wash: Tailored for laundry supplies, incorporating a hook panel for lint rollers or brushes and a roll holder.

The system fits 300mm cabinet widths with frame height ranges of 1900–2140mm and requires a minimum internal front-to-back cabinet depth of 503mm. It is available in White and Lava Grey finishes.
