Partnership & experience with SCHELL

We associated with SCHELL in the year 2013. The goal was to onboard a brand linked with positive attributes and build value and equity for the company. SCHELL undoubtedly proves itself right in all of the aforementioned points. Another likeable characteristic of the brand is its support and after-sale service. For plumbing, bathroom fittings, and sanitaryware dealers, dependable service from the brand is a must. This further makes the bond between us and the brand stronger.

SCHELL is an extremely reliable brand. The three things that set SCHELL apart from other bathroom fitting brands are:

  1. They manufacture green bathroom fittings for residential and public use (where there is heavy usage) and in private toilets. 
  2. The brand emphasises user hygiene and water-saving techniques. 
  3. Their products have precision derived from German engineering.

Post pandemic trends in the bathroom fittings & sanitaryware retailing

At present, customers are open to experimenting with hygiene and aesthetically crafted bathrooms. They are moving from regular Chrome finishes to coloured finishes for bathroom fittings and accessories. Contemporary and regular designs are widely accepted over classical and traditional designs. The gold finish bathroom fittings are now in popular demand, and so are matt finish faucets in black. 

Due to the widespread effect of the pandemic, another trend that is dominating the bathroom segment is touchless, green, and intelligent fittings. Sensor faucets for wash basins and sensor urinals from SCHELL are life savers in times like these. They provide hygienic touchless operations that are crucial for public facilities like malls, hospitals, and other institutions.

New platform for networking with bathroom fittings & sanitaryware dealers and brands

In today’s world, social media plays a pivotal role in every business. It is one of the main reasons why particular brands are popular across the globe. Having said that, the Indian market in sanitaryware is still emotionally biased. Clients still like to have a touch and feel of the product in real life. The new-age retailing methods are a real change maker for the world, and especially for retail. Thus, the internet has allowed retailers to connect with potential customers and promote their brands in entirely new ways for every segment be it green bathroom fitting or sanitaryware.

 

Mr Satish Bhargav interacting with customers
“Though social media is crucial for the market, for hardcore fittings, real-time networking is our priority.”

 

Networking with both our competitors and the brands that we associate with is one of our invaluable resources for keeping us up-to-date and learning what’s coming down the pike. For this, we actively participate in industry-related exhibitions, launches, and seminars. We are also active on social media like LinkedIn where people share ideas and news and learn from one another. Other sources of networking are engineering and architecture web journals, blogs, and e-newsletters that publish the latest news, opinion, and trends to keep on track with the emerging trends and launches in our industry.
