KBB distributor Frontline Bathrooms has become the latest company to join ArtiCAD’s Supplier Partnership Programme, with the software’s users now having exclusive access to the brand’s product catalogue.
Via the ArtiCAD Member Portal, users can now incorporate more than 2,000 products from Frontline’s Aqua catalogue into their bathroom designs. The full range of products available includes sanitaryware, showers, baths, enclosures, and furniture collections.
Prior to Frontline’s inclusion in the Programme, the distributor previously hosted its own 3D software on its website. However, the company said it recognised it had a need for a more advanced 3D planning tool, and decided to partner with ArtiCAD to realise this.
The decision to partner with ArtiCAD over other software platforms reportedly emerged after Frontline consulted with its own network of retailers.
Alex Rollinger, senior marketing and operations executive at ArtiCAD, said the company was thrilled to welcome Frontline Bathrooms to its supplier partnership programme. He continued: “The addition of their extensive catalogue adds significant value to ArtiCAD’s software, making it even more powerful for bathroom designers.
“This partnership will not only support our users in creating stunning, accurate designs, but also help them stay ahead of industry trends with a wide range of high-quality products.”
Additionally, Frontline Bathrooms marketing manager, Hayley Bowman, said the process of working with ArtiCAD had been seamless. She commented: “Once the product information was gathered from our suppliers the ArtiCAD team got to work building the categories and the speed and accuracy was very impressive.
“Being involved in ArtiCAD’s Supplier Partnership Programme helps Frontline Bathrooms stay competitive, efficient, and aligned with the evolving demands of the bathroom industry – ensuring that we can consistently deliver high-quality, innovative solutions to our retailers and their customers.”
The partnership announcement follows ArtiCAD being named as the software partner for builders’ merchants MKM Building Supplies. As part of the partnership, MKM said it plans to use ArtiCAD-Pro alongside the software company’s pricing, ordering and business management solution as it looks to enhance the design journey for both staff and customers.
In related recent news, Frontline’s parent company, The Bathroom Distribution Group, announced earlier this week that former BC Designs boss Darren Allison had been appointed as its new senior managing director.
