Together with our strong and reliable partner Blum, we want to do our utmost to meet our customers' needs. We want to create and distribute products that customers and consumers will enjoy for years to come. That's why you can count on us to provide you with rock-solid quality and a guarantee.
This idea is fundamental in the development of every product and service. The quality is designed and tested for years of intensive utilisation. Thanks to its own market research, Blum has a clear idea on how kitchens are used across the world, and what furniture makers and producers expect of furniture fittings. This provides the perfect foundation for their development. All products then undergo tough tests, relating to motion and load, corrosion and materials, in the in-house test centre. Only products that pass these intensive tests are launched on the global market. “In total, drawer systems, doors or stay lifts in the kitchen are opened and closed more than 80 times a day,” says Blum. “After 20 years of intensive use, this activity mounts up. And that's why the tests on for example our hinge systems consider in excess of 200,000 opening and closing actions.”
Thanks to these many efforts when designing and developing new products, they can be sure that Blum products will last the entire life of the furniture item. Van Hoecke is confident about this and therefore offers customers a lifetime warranty on Blum products. With this extra service, they go one step further in offering the customer peace of mind, as even after installation they can happily reassure the end consumer of the excellent quality and convenience to be enjoyed for many years.
