Making things clearer

With our distinctive naming system, the breakdown of our product range across all categories is now clear and understandable. With this consequent logic, we are creating added value for all of our customers.

Striving towards uniformity

All products in our range have a product name. The clear product range categorization simplifies planning for retailers.

Established names are retained

Brand names that have been established on the market for many years, such as Adora, are essential to us and remain part of our naming system.

Naming

Our naming system is consistent, clear and easy to understand. It always follows the same logic. The naming always specifies the product name and convenience level. For certain products, a code or hero name is also shown.

The product name

The first part of the name describes the product name. Combi is used as a prefix for a product combination. The product function is an optional, additional descriptive element that is translated into German, English, French and Italian.

The convenience level

The second part of the product designation consists of the comfort level. Advanced Line appliances have a three-digit number (V200 / V400 / V600) and Excellence Line appliances have a four-digit number (V2000 / V4000 / V6000). The V stands for V-ZUG. The respective convenience level is defined by the range of functions and the price.

The codes

For targeted product differentiation, a code is also used for product categories with a high product range depth. This is made up of letters and numbers that describe product-specific information such as niche height, installation type, technology, width standard or functions.

The Hero name

To emphasise a product that has an extraordinary innovation, it is given a hero name.

The changeover

The naming system is being rolled out for all product categories in a process that will take several years. Since 2019 we are introducing the system step by step, ensuring a smooth and sustainable changeover of product names across all categories.
