To ensure continued business success, BayWa AG is committed to the consistent digitalization of its product portfolios, including its private label, Formel-Pro. The goal is to create a central touchpoint for diverse target groups, including builders, DIY enthusiasts, and industry experts. To achieve this, we analyzed the user journey for each target group to uncover their specific needs. Based on these insights, we built the information architecture, designed the website, and oversaw the web development process to ensure it met all stakeholder interests.

I*AM created a clear information architecture that provides users with the fastest route to solving their problems. By developing user-friendly tools like a product finder and placing instructional videos and information materials in prominent locations, we enable proactive resolution of user queries. With heroic product presentations, we put Formel-Pro in the spotlight and turn these products into the heroes of the BayWa universe.

The success of Formel Pro sets a new benchmark for a successful online presence within the BayWa universe. Thousands of daily visits are a testament to a high-quality user experience that has led to a noticeable increase in sales for the construction division. As part of a consistent digitalization strategy, the construction sector has long been a key driver of the group's success. Projects like these contribute to BayWa's ongoing success and pave the way for future achievements.
