Franke Home Solutions has invested in a new membership package with NBS and Glenigan as it looks to strengthen its commitment to supporting architects, contractors and housebuilders throughout the UK.
Through these platforms, Franke’s products will be available on NBS Source, the leading specification tool, and integrated into NBS Chorus, which aims to streamline the specification process for design professionals.
As a trusted resource for 98% of the UK’s top architectural firms, NBS provides specifiers with access to high-quality product data, including BIM objects. Franke says the partnership will make it easier for architects and engineers to incorporate its products, which include sinks, taps, appliances, cooker hood and waste management solutions, into their designs, improving project workflows and ensuring accurate product specifications.
Franke also plans to leverage NBS’s Inspiration section to host case studies that highlight the latest trends and showcase successful projects, demonstrating the type of work the company is involved in and the value it delivers.
In addition, Franke’s membership with Glenigan provides real-time project data, enabling the company to track where and when its products are specified across active and upcoming projects. Franke says this integration will help it ‘stay aligned with the needs of the industry’ and ensure its products are considered throughout the project lifecycle.
Chris Gallagher, sales director for key accounts and projects at Franke UK, said: “We are really looking forward to working with NBS. We have had plenty of success over the years getting Franke product specified in lots of exciting projects. We believe that by partnering with NBS we can increase our audience and supply them with the best tools, knowledge and innovative products on the market. Our aim is for Franke to become the default specification partner in the kitchen space.”
