ConReal and ProMaterial want to digitize the construction industry
Proptech ConReal from Winterthur offers digital and analog services for real estate stakeholders. ProMaterial from Düsseldorf specializes in the online sale of construction products. Together they want to digitize the construction industry.
The construction industry is considered to be one of the largest industries in the world and at the same time the least digitized, write ConReal Swiss AG and ProMaterial Technologies in a joint statement . The two companies want to change the latter. To this end, they are building a platform that enables manufacturers, dealers and building contractors to connect directly and digitally.
"We are building a data standard with outstanding quality that will make online trade and communication in the construction industry more transparent and efficient," Nils Gagzow, Managing Director and co-founder of ProMaterial Technologies, is quoted as saying in the press release. Manufacturers should be able to use this data standard to place their offering digitally on the market. The products are described by an international industry standard so that dealers can access highly qualified product information, the press release explains.
ConReal, in turn, contributes the data from its own digital ecosystem to the project. Market information is collected here, for example data on what is being built, when, where and how. In combination, "the physical product and craftsmanship can be brought into play at the right time," says the statement.
