Varied and curious audience at HoutPro+ is essential for the future

Customers value a quality product

Five years passed between the last edition of HoutPro+ and the event held in Den Bosch in early November. Frank Peters of DecoLegno looks back with satisfaction. 

"You noticed that everyone was happy to visit another major trade fair, to be informed about novelties and to meet fellow professionals again. At our Durasein® booth we greeted many people who were very interested in solid surface. Therefore it was a very successful event for us."

DecoLegno was present in Den Bosch with two stands. In addition to the well-known Cleaf collection, the solid surface program of Durasein® was thus presented. It is a logical addition to the existing range and a real added value for the interior market, is the opinion of the DecoLegno team. Frank Peters: "Certainly at decor level, the Durasein® program is distinctive compared to the existing solid surface offerings. That triggered the curiosity of the fair visitors. We received many questions about the collection and the possibilities in processing. We were able to give the visitors good advice using the special, interactive product configurator. With it, you can choose from twelve existing washroom models and configure them in one of 39 different colors. Everyone has their own specific wishes in terms of color, shape or other aspects. Thanks to the configurator, you can easily compare this."

Although Durasein® presented at its own booth, Peters considers it an advantage to market this collection under the DecoLegno banner. "DecoLegno is now a well-known name in the world of furniture customization and our customers value a quality product. That's an advantage."

In addition to the many visitors from interior design and related companies, Peters saw that many schoolchildren also visited HoutPro+. An excellent addition, he reveals. "They had been given a number of interactive assignments from their training institute and, as a result, they get acquainted in a pleasant and modern way with the products they will be working with after their training. That aspect is part of a trade fair. It is also about the future of this sector."
