Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Rajesh Mehra, Promoter and Director, Jaquar Group said, “We are delighted to launch Design Confab in Pune, an initiative that is very close to our hearts. The idea was to create a first-of- its-kind knowledge forum for decision makers from the architectural and interior design fraternity to deliberate on best practices, emerging business opportunities and the changing dynamics of design in India. We will be taking Design Confab to multiple location across India within the next one year and globally as well.”
“With increasing pressure to lower operating costs, making existing structures more efficient is a default mandate and therefore we have chosen ‘Best Practices for Smart, High-performance Indian Buildings’ as our inaugural theme for Design Confab”, concluded Mr. Mehra.
The Group is present in over 40+ countries globally and has taken the concept of orientation centres to the next level by launching ‘Jaquar World’, a one-stop- shop for all bathroom needs in 15 locations including Singapore, Dubai, London, Italy among others. Jaquar World offers everything one could dream of in the bathroom space through two of its most respected global brands – the premium Jaquar and luxury Artize.
Research and development plays a key role in Jaquar Group’s design ethos. Functional innovation, practical designs and manufacturing excellence aimed towards indigenization is what makes Jaquar a leader. Our products are a perfect symphony of global designs, with manufacturing in view of tough Indian water conditions and roughed usage.
The product designs from Jaquar Group meet global parameters on ergonomics, finish, material, safety standards, environmental impact and functionality. Jaquar’s eco-friendly design ethos conserves water and the incredibly superior water-saving advantage can be experienced in the products like faucets, air-showers, sensor taps, efficient flushing systems etc. To add to this, Jaquar’s eco-friendly and pollution-free (zero wastage) manufacturing plants promote a conscious and responsible usage of water
