SCHULTE Strong Home Storage is the first company ever to win the Building Products Top 100 Award four consecutive years. Two SCHULTE products received the prestigious award in 2006—both in the top 25.
"SCHULTE products were recognized twice in the top 25 from more than 1,400 items," said Jean Dimeo, originator of the Building Products Top 100 awards and editor in chief for Building Products magazine. "Not only has SCHULTE received the award four times, but it has been honored this year with two product winners. The Building Products Top 100 award is one of the industry's most prestigious awards because the recognition comes from the builders who are investing in and using the products."
In 2006, freedomRail was ranked number 19 on the top 100 list and Classica was awarded number 22. freedomRail is SCHULTE's home storage solution that is revolutionary in its adjustability. The product's main component is a rail that attaches to the wall and all other components snap into place and have the ability to move left to right and up and down. The freedomRail system works in any area of the home, including the master closet, pantry, linen closet, laundry room and garage.
The second award winner, Classica, combines the look and feel of fine furniture with the function of a strong, custom built storage solution. Both products are production-oriented and an easy-to-sell upgrade for builders.
"The home storage and organization industry has grown to $1.5 billion, therefore increasing the demand for SCHULTE's products" said Donna Boehm, marketing director at SCHULTE. "We engineer and manufacture the strongest products in the industry that can withstand the real-world use and abuse of active families. The reputation and the strength of our products, along with the great awards we're receiving, are rightfully positioning us as a category expert."
The Building Products Top 100, started in 1998, is a reader's choice award. The award recognizes products that generate the most inquiries from editorial mentions in Builder, Remodeling, Custom Home and Building Products magazines.
SCHULTE products continue to be the choice of experts by winning many top industry awards, including the Consumers Digest Best Buy award and Building Magazine's Top 10 Most Popular Products Award and Design Excellence Award. In previous years, SCHULTE has received the Top 100 Building Product Awards for freedomRail Garage, and was recognized for freedomRail two additional years.
These award-winning products, as well as other SCHULTE innovations, are manufactured with the highest quality materials for strength and durability to last a lifetime. |
