On the 10th anniversary of the opening of its first small office in The Building Centre, Rehau hosted a launch party for architects, specifiers, contractors and trade and retail customers to reveal its new 82m² exhibition space, complete with product displays and dedicated meeting and presentation areas.
Speaking at the event, Rehau’s UK chief executive, Martin Hitchin, said: “It’s now estimated that around 80% of all building projects in the UK are influenced by an individual who is based in London, so our presence here has never been more important.”
He continued: “The new Rehau Hub is designed to demonstrate not only our abilities as a manufacturer of cutting edge products but also our strengths as a solutions provider and design consultant and, as such, it will benefit not only Rehau but all of our customers who work in the commercial sector.”
The new Rehau Hub is a permanent display space for Rehau’s range of window and door systems. This includes specialist products such as the Rehau Polytec 50S composite curtain walling system and the Rau-Fipro formulated Genoa and Rehau Nordic Design products, as well as more mainstream choices such as Rehau Total70 and Rehau Heritage vertical sliders.
It also showcases Rehau’s heating and renewable energy solutions, cable trunking, furniture products and even garden decking.
It forms a key element in the ‘Knowhau’ package which Rehau offers to architects and consultants to help win window, door and curtain walling specifications in Rehau profile. It provides a London base for the team of specialist commercial sales managers who support specifiers with product and planning advice, training and CPD seminars, and gives the many visitors to The Building Centre an insight into the scale and resources behind the familiar Rehau brand.
