International glazing solution provider Lumon was looking for new ways of presenting their product ideas to customers<\/h1>\n

They decided to go with Sweco\u2019s virtual reality service VirtualSite™. Lumon feels that the solution gives them the competitive edge.<\/p>\n

Lumon, which specialises in balcony fa\u00e7ades and patio products, is an international operator. \u201cThe concept of glazing balconies is not established abroad yet. We need to work hard to help people understand what we are talking about,\u201d says Lumon Development Director\u00a0Risto Kivioja<\/strong>. \u201cPreviously, we used videos and printed material to explain our products to customers and displayed our physical products at trade fairs. However, we were looking\u00a0for\u00a0a way to allow the customer to experience the end result in the here and now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cooperation with Sweco started in the summer of 2019 after Kivioja had seen the Sweco VirtualSite™ service at a construction trade seminar. Both parties feel that the cooperation has run smoothly. Kivioja praises Sweco\u2019s way of managing the project: \u201cSweco experts knew all along what to do and there was never any room for surprises. We were well-informed and on schedule throughout the process.\u201d Lumon\u2019s IT department was especially pleased with the partner\u2019s ability to propose specific tested equipment for the use of the software. Sweco\u2019s strong expertise in the field of construction as a whole also facilitated the development of the virtual model.<\/p>\n

\u201dOur cooperation has been continuous and open. Excellent brainstorming and fruitful interaction with the customer made it possible to achieve a very comprehensive modelling experience,\u201d says Sweco BIM expert\u00a0Antti H\u00e4m\u00e4l\u00e4inen<\/strong>, who was in charge of guiding the modelling work and testing the virtual models.<\/p>\n

Lumon\u2019s virtual modelling is a versatile combination of data from various sources. The model contains different weather conditions (rain, wind and sun glare), terrain photographed with a drone, detailed balcony glazing models, data models and animations. When combined, the end result is a unique, life-like experience of the impact of balcony glazing.<\/p>\n

Lumon tested the performance of the VirtualSite™ service at the\u00a0digitalBAU 2020 event in Germany.\u00a0Customer feedback was encouraging: the virtual tool made the Lumon solution very life-like and easy to understand. \u201cWe got the reactions we were looking for. The service met our needs,\u201d Kivioja says.<\/p>\n

Lumon is going to be using VirtualSite™ at trade fairs in the future, as well.\u00a0\u201cWe no longer need to build immense physical models to be able to showcase our products. Instead, we will be presenting our products virtually, at least to some degree,\u201d Kivioja crystallises the benefit of the service. \u201cGoing forward, our experts can present our solutions to the customer virtually anywhere. You only need to pop a VR headset on and start the show,\u201d Kivioja describes the added value of the virtual tool.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur vision is to be the best and most desirable operator in our field, and this solution is a perfect fit for our goal. We believe that this\u00a0virtual solution will support our business,\u201d Kivioja sums up.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
