KBBG Expands Portfolio With The Addition Of German Manufacturer Blanco

The Kitchen Bathroom Buying Group (KBBG), part of the DER KREIS, dedicated to supporting independent kitchen specialists, has added to its expanding portfolio by welcoming prestigious German kitchen manufacturer Blanco on board.

Established in 1925, Blanco’s declared aim was to quite simply be ‘the best’. The company has established worldwide acclaim for its unswerving commitment to producing innovative and functional products of the highest quality, and supporting its products with second-to-none service. This commitment remains the cornerstone of its policy, with top quality products in taps, sinks, cooker hoods and accessories.

The company’s purpose-built UK headquarters are based in Hertfordshire and Marketing Manager Ann-Marie Jones says: “It’s great to be a part of the KBBG’s continuing and notable development, as both of our companies have made impressive strides to become highly respected members of a very competitive industry.

“Initially dedicated to producing products in premium-quality stainless steel, we have since developed various other quality materials, notably the introduction SILGRANIT® PuraDur® II composite sink material, and now colour with fine fire clay ceramics.”

Bill Miller, KBBG’s Managing Director, says: “The addition of Blanco to our membership is significant indeed in terms of the top quality products and leading brands we offer our members.  The KBBG has made great headway in its short history and our move to our new UK head office in Southampton is evidence of our progress. We will continue to expand our operation and membership to offer the best possible support for proactive independent kitchen specialists who are looking to make their mark with top quality offerings for their customers.”
