While fulfilling its original function, the baseboard neatly finishes the walls of various spaces such as the living room, kitchen, and entrance, beautifully completing the home itself.

The "fitbase," which incorporates design elements into baseboards, has boldly introduced the new trend of 'black' from Milan Design Week! We are pleased to provide you with an early preview. Please take a look. ■ Aesthetic Presence and Beauty of Baseboards By pursuing the balance of form, it combines design that blends into any space, construction adaptability for various environments, and functionality as a baseboard that protects walls. ■ Combination of Baseboard Body and Resin Base After fixing the resin base to the wall, the baseboard body can be fitted from above, allowing for installation even in completed wall conditions such as during renovations. This is recommended for sites where albase previously could not be accommodated. ■ Designed to Adapt to Any Floor The flooring, which serves as the face of the space, comes in various colors and shapes to create a high-quality interior. Traditionally, aluminum baseboards struggled with uneven floor surfaces, but this has been resolved by combining them with the resin base. The soft elastomer of the resin base absorbs the floor's irregularities, resulting in a structure that is less susceptible to impact.
