The equipped back section is a 20cm wide area inside which plumbing and electrical connections can be made, giving the interior designer freedom to install the sink and the hob at a certain distance from the positions imposed by the water and gas supply outlets.

Valcucine uses three types of back sections:

- an aluminium back section: it can be fitted between the base units and the wall, or used in a central island (in this case it must be finished using a wooden back panel combined with a wooden snack bar;

- a steel back section: ideal for use in the centre of the room. It has a steel finished back panel that reaches the floor. It protrudes by 18cm above the top and thus acts as an upstand to contain splashing water. The new swivel tap can be fixed to the section over looking the sink;

- a steel back section welded to the top: it can be used against the wall or in a kitchen with an island or a peninsular unit.

It becomes one with the top, and due to the fact that it is does not have seals, is easier to clean.

The back section can be fitted with a set of containers having precise functions that are normally scattered around the kitchen: a dish and glass rack; compartments with sockets and gas cocks; knife and chopping-board racks; food bowls in various sizes; digital weighing scales; bottle and spice racks, a detergent holder and a small blender; a vacuum pump container.

All the elements can be removed for easy cleaning, some are dishwasher safe. The back section is modular to suit requirements and allows you to work more comfortably with everything on hand.
