Den Braven has a wealth of experience and knowledge in the application of adhesives, sealants and polyurethane foams in the construction, industry and DIY. The Centre of Excellence is the platform where Den Braven shares this knowledge and experience with its key accounts and other interested parties such as architects, and contractors.
The Centre of Excellence building
This ultra-modern building was opened by Den Braven on November 1, 2014 and is a dynamic facility. Den Braven chose a sustainable building method which was constructed using the Den Braven DLB airtightness products and certified to the highest class of air tightness. The Centre of Excellence is powered by renewable energy sources, being a combination of a geothermal pump and solar panels to generate enough power to give the ideal environmental working conditions. The interior of the building is very stylish and contains a demonstration room where visitors can undertake practical applications. We can seat up to 50 people in our auditorium, where presentations are given using the most up to date digital technology.
The Centre of Excellence team
The Centre of Excellence team consists of specialists in the technical application field, the building also houses the Den Braven Group Marketing team. This enables us to launch new products globally using both technical and marketing concepts at the highest level.
Centre of Excellence activities
Den Braven invites major key accounts from all over the world to the Centre of Excellence for technical theoretical courses, and practical demonstrations. We created basic learning concept modules that cover all our products and it is a requirement that all members of the Den Braven international sales team are examined and certified in all these modules. Together with our distributors and end-users the CoE team looks at product portfolios to make them more competitive with enhanced features and benefits.
