EKI provides B2B customers with tailor-made technical solutions in rubber and foam, serving industries across Europe. As a manufacturer with in-house production, EKI offers complete customization to meet unique customer needs. However, translating these specific requirements into seamless orders was a challenge. To address this, EKI partnered with rb2 to develop a tool allowing customers to configure every aspect of their products independently.
rb2 created a customer-centric product configurator designed to meet EKI’s goals:
EKI faced the challenge of translating unique customer needs, often with complex specifications, into efficient orders. The product configurator developed by rb2 enables this by giving customers the freedom to directly configure their own products. Customers can select specific properties such as shape, thickness, and material. This process can be completed entirely independently, without staff intervention, which not only shortens the processing time but also reduces errors.
The configurator also offers advanced capabilities for price and delivery time calculations, fully tailored to the unique specifications of each order. With just a few clicks, customers know exactly what to expect, resulting in a user-friendly and transparent ordering experience.
The technical solution developed by rb2 was designed with flexibility and scalability in mind. The product configurator functions as a web component, making it easy to integrate into various commerce platforms such as commercetools, BigCommerce, and Magento. Additionally, rb2 built an internal master environment that allows EKI to easily manage which products and attributes are displayed to customers.
This setup enables EKI to not only serve its current customers more effectively but also adapt to future growth and innovations. This includes expanding into new markets or developing additional functionalities, such as adding more configuration options or integrating with new systems.
The product configurator has transformed the way EKI’s customers order tailored solutions. It reduces order processing time for both customers and back-office teams while improving efficiency and scalability. The tool also provides EKI with insights for new features, empowering them to innovate further.
