Help with kitchen drawer fittings

Hey! I'm new to the forum, trying to find a particular fitting for our kitchen drawers as we want to replace them.
The kitchen is a German brand called "Nolte" - can anyone tell me what this fitting is called? And or
Where I can get my hands on them?

Not sure if you meant that you want to change the drawer fronts or just repair a broken one? You could hunt for ever to find those fittings. I suggest that the easiest thing is to replace the drawer set(s) as required with these
http://www.screwfix.com/p/drawer-system ... 321340#_=p these are easy to make up using some melamine faced chipboard that you can get cut to size at BnQ.
If you want to just replace the fronts the knob type fitting needs to be taken off the old fronts and put on the new. You might be lucky and they are just screw in's but usually these are one way push in fittings that will have to be chopped out.

Sorry, yes to be clear we just want to replace the drawer fronts for a different colour and style.. Nothing wrong with the draw sets that I can see, however if we can't find these fittings we may need to replace the sets as you suggest.

Nolte are one of the bigger German kitchen groups and have ranges to suit different budgets, so as such the drawer systems used may not be the same throughout the group. But I believe Nolte use Hettich drawers and hinges so that would be my first port of call

There is an outside chance it could be a Grass system, but don't think so.

So i'd start with those 2 first. I'm pretty sure it's not a blum system, so wouldn't waste you time looking through them.
Most drawer systems will have the brand stamped on them somewhere even if the side tags have been replaced with Nolte's own. Pull the drawers out and look for brand markings on the underside of the drawer and also the drawer runners in the carcase, you may find it stamped in to the metal (often really quite small)
