Every season brings new trends, especially when it comes to home and kitchen appliances. At the start of each year, manufacturers compete to release new kitchen appliances with upgraded features and refreshed colour schemes. So what are the current trends in gas stove cooktops in Australia?
1. White Stove Tops
Stainless steel appliances have dominated kitchens for years and, for many, remain a modern classic. However, white stovetops are quickly taking centre stage, with more homeowners embracing their clean and elegant appeal.
Kitchen design plays a huge role in driving new trends. When planning your kitchen, one of the most popular combinations is wooden cabinetry paired with white appliances. Looking for the perfect balance? Try our Goldline white cooktops together with cast iron trivets to add character and contrast.
You can complete the look by creating a minimalist layout and incorporating enamel trivets with a white stovetop. White appliances naturally create a monochromatic base, allowing bold accents such as an orange kitchen island to truly stand out.
2. i-Cooking Gas Hobs
The i-cooking concept is ideal for integrating a wide range of benchtop materials, including granite, composite, concrete, and glass. One of its biggest advantages is the ability to customise the gas hob design to suit your kitchen layout.
i-cooking systems typically feature high-end burners with outputs of up to 6.4kW, depending on household gas usage. This is often paired with a 4mm steel i-cooking variant that uses optical floating, dual heat-insulating pan supports, and a burner mounting plate. The mounting plate is usually secured to the worktop using temperature-resistant silicone.
The pan support diameter is critical, as it determines the size and type of cookware that can be used. Combustion air is drawn through the pan support using a patented double-layer construction, helping cool both the burner and the surrounding worktop.

3. WiFi Compatible Cooktops
WiFi-compatible cooktops represent innovation at its finest. These smart appliances seamlessly combine technology and design, elevating both safety and cooking efficiency in the kitchen.
Smart cooktops blend effortlessly into modern kitchens while offering advanced features that enhance control and convenience. Honeycomb-patterned cookware surfaces create micro pockets of steam, improving cooking performance and consistency.
With premium non-stick and scratch-resistant surfaces, these cooktops allow the use of metallic utensils without damage. Investing in high-quality cookware often eliminates the need for frequent replacements.
4. Cooktops With an Invisible Cooking System
TPB technology introduces an energy-efficient induction system built directly into the benchtop, offering a sleek and visually seamless cooking solution. Its invisible surface transforms kitchens from functional spaces into luxurious environments.
One of the key advantages of invisible cooking systems is their exceptional scratch resistance. While the surface can withstand significant wear, using a cutting board is still recommended to maintain its pristine condition.
Only European and American safety standards approve worktops that integrate cooking technology, which excludes ceramic surfaces due to their lower impact resistance. TPB technology overcomes this limitation through patented induction-based worktops that merge cooking and preparation areas.
These systems require sufficient power and covered space and can also be used in caravans, offices, dining rooms, and yachts, highlighting their versatility.
