Now interactive: The new HECO product catalogue 22 October 2018

The new HECO product catalogue now offers users and specialist dealers an even wider range of services when selecting the right fasteners. Whether printed or digital – both versions provide a vast amount of information, with integrated QR codes available to access product and assembly videos.

HECO’s product catalogue shows the different application options for the various fasteners, and helps specialist dealers and professional installers choose the right fasteners. The integration of QR codes in the new edition of the catalogue also provides added value. In the printed version, scanning the code using a QR code reader on a tablet or smartphone takes the user directly to the HECO YouTube channel, containing a range of product and assembly instruction videos. A video symbol in the catalogue indicates there is a video for the item in question. HECO points out that it is even quicker to access the videos on the PDF version, as the user simply clicks on the QR code and they are taken directly to the video channel.

Another practical feature is the linking of the digital product catalogue with the ‘HECO-Data-View’ online service. Clicking on the item number in the PDF will open a browser window, and the user will receive comprehensive, up to date information on the selected item, such as product characteristics and technical data sheets. With these interactive elements, specialist consultants, carpenters and joiners will be able to find the right product even more easily.

Find new products with ease
In order to give users a quick overview of the new HECO products, these are specifically highlighted in the product catalogue, whether in the table of contents with the new product symbol or in the new ‘Timber Construction Special’ chapter.

“With a clear structure and colour-coding to identify the individual product groups, it’s very easy to navigate through the 230 pages of the catalogue. As well as the colour-coding system, screws are also easy to find using the brief descriptions and illustrations,” mentions HECO.

The printed version of the 2018 HECO product catalogue is available in German, English, French and Dutch. The digital version of the catalogue is also available for direct download in all four languages from HECO’s website.
