Today, B.Grimm is a multinational conglomerate active in energy, industrial businesses, healthcare, digital solutions, lifestyle and capital investment. Customers in industrial businesses always seek innovative solutions that help lower their costs, fasten their processes, or generate more revenue. Driven by an ambition for greater energy efficient and healthy living for our clients, B.Grimm industrial businesses launch Thailand’s very first one stop facade and lighting solution. Offering seamless integration of facades and building envelopes, smart lighting, and intelligent digital displays, this unique solution promises to cater to all architectural needs in building design and lower energy usage.

Customers will be offered a reprieve from the hassle of contacting, liaising and coordinating with different suppliers for such major elements of a building, as B.Grimm offers a full array of in-house services, providing professional support in each key step of design, manufacturing, installation, through to maintenance and post contract services for a smooth and thorough experience. In addition, B.Grimm also offers value engineering by cooperating with designers and consultants from the design stage to propose the most optimal design option available.

The president of B.Grimm Joint Venture, Caroline Link, affirmed this point, stating that “In general, customers are forced to waste time contacting multiple service providers to supply facades, lighting, and digital signage installation for their projects. This multiple sourcing environment can lead to scheduling conflicts or design misalignments across vendors, causing project delays. To avoid this and ensure smooth cooperation, B.Grimm consolidates our affiliates’ expertise in facade, smart lighting, and digital display to supply a single comprehensive solution.

The president of B.Grimm Industrial Businesses, Fabrice Goetschmann, added “Moreover, our wide array of innovative products can match various customers’ needs. In particular, we are focused on making buildings more energy-efficient by integrating technologies such as double-glazed facade systems with thermally enhanced frames, which can reduce buildings’ energy consumption by 65%. Combined with our energy-saving LED light bulbs and displays, our solutions will lead the way in lowering the energy consumption of buildings, promoting sustainability while satisfying customer needs.”

Managing Director of MBM Metalworks Limited, Arnon Harnburanaphong, offered some insight into the company’s target market, which includes medium to large-sized projects, particularly commercial, residential, and mixed-use buildings. “Current trends in the exterior building sector are moving ever faster to the use of more energy efficient and sustainable building solutions, yet still requiring to meet all the aesthetical, design and engineering requirements.

This combination facilitates eye-catching building design and promotes visibility from distance both during day and night, whilst considering both environmental and economic needs. B.Grimm targets building owners who want to increase business value and revenue” said Mr. Arnon.
