Customers are demanding more from their kitchen and furniture designs, and competition for work can be fierce. As such, manufacturers are seeking services which help save them time to cater for an increased workload, and which also achieve a high-quality output to ensure customer satisfaction.
In addition, recent research conducted by Häfele UK has revealed that almost half of homeowners (46%) want to invest in home improvements in the next year, with kitchen (23%) and bathroom (21%) renovations two of the top three planned refurbishments. With homeowners keen to increase their spending in these areas, the industry requires extra support to streamline their workloads.
In answer to this, Häfele has launched Service+ Customised, offering a wider range of custom-manufactured solutions – including bespoke timber drawers and customised worktops – which make it as simple as possible for the industry to take on additional work while creating bespoke furniture and installations that meet their customers’ unique tastes.
Häfele’s Bespoke Timber Drawers have fully dovetailed joints, are available in a choice of timbers and have a suite of complementary accessories like cutlery inserts and knife blocks. They can be tailored against a long list of personalisation options, including a choice of shaped sides, flat or stepped top, and handle cut outs. And for the ultimate in personalised design, the drawers can have router or laser engraved to feature a customer’s choice of text.
Meanwhile, Häfele’s Customised Worktop Service helps achieve precise, customisable designs, while also saving time during the installation process. Suited to kitchen, bathroom or utility room projects, users simply select their choice of solid surface and compact laminate worktops from Häfele’s Maia, Minerva, Mariz or Metis ranges, and the products will be manufactured to specification using high-quality craftsmanship. Advanced cutting tools and technologies ensure precision and accuracy for island joins, radius corners and sink cut-outs, eliminating gaps or unevenness when fitted. Both stain and heat-resistant, the worksurfaces are available in a variety of colourways and finishes.
Service+ Customised customers can also order a combination of ready-configured products and components packaged to their needs. Both bespoke worktops and timber drawers can be instantly quoted for and ordered online through MyHafele, with no minimum order quantity, then delivered straight to site.
Our kitchens represent who we are – our personality, our hobbies, our way of life. So, when it comes to their design, it pays to ensure customers have the option of including features and finishing touches that reflect their individuality. Through Service+, Häfele is offering the extra pair of hands the industry needs to meet ever changing customer demand, and ensure that every project along the way has its own personal rubber stamp, while maintaining exceptional standards of quality.
