The result is the BIM Centre, where finding and downloading the right BIM models is quick and fast, and updates are delivered automatically. Users can sign up free to the BIM Centre in a matter of minutes and then use Eurocell’s new search and filter tool to find the models they need. Rather than downloading models one-by-one, they all go into a BIM basket to be downloaded en masse at the end of the process. The models downloaded by each user will also be stored in a personalised BIM Library for quick and easy access later. If specifiers can’t find the model they need, the BIM Centre has a simple ‘Request a BIM’ function which will be handled by Eurocell’s technical support team – who will always on hand to help with queries. “We know from talking to our customers that getting the right BIM models can sometimes be a frustrating and time-consuming experience,” said Eurocell Head of Marketing BRIGHT PARTNERSHIP Chris Coxon. “The idea behind our BIM Centre was to make everything as hassle-free as possible, and to make sure that people always have access to the latest information.” www.eurocell.co.uk 24 » A PR 2017 » CL EARVI E W- UK . C O M » » ONE OF THE UK’S leading rooflight manufacturers with a strong reputation across the glazing world for quality and innovation, has appointed Purplex as their PR agency. Leicester-based Roof Maker manufactures an extensive range of roof windows including flat, pitched, opening and lantern rooflights, and is a well- recognised brand in the retail sector. Roof Maker’s impressive reputation led to their acquisition by Next Wave Partners LLP in the latter stages of 2016. The new owners are looking to take the company to the next level, stepping up activity in every area – including their marketing by appointing Purplex to work alongside their digital and marketing team to develop and implement a multi- channel strategy. Paul Mildenstein, CEO of Roof Maker commented: “We have grown a strong presence in the retail sector with our stunning rooflights, selling to customers across the UK and internationally. However, we are now looking to grow in the trade and commercial sector, building relationships with architects, specifiers and installers. We appointed Purplex because of their experience in this area, helping businesses within the fenestration industry expand and become a recognised name in the trade and commercial space.” www.purplexmarketing.com
