News.
In this issue, we highlight elements including our new service offering for CAD data as part of which we are making a composer for assemblies available in collaboration with the provider iFurn. We have also created a microsite for our new Dynaneo slide. And last but not least, we will be telling you all about our attendance at the Kitchen Innovations Day in Switzerland and the KBIS 2025.

New CAD microsite including iFurn Composer.
We are constantly working on improving and enhancing our service offerings. The new CAD microsite is the hub for all information and offers surrounding CAD data. It provides ZIP files, contact details, CAD partners and, as a highlight, the iFurn data library plus Composer.
Conveniently export individual components and assemblies.
In addition to the proven CAD-ZIP files, we now provide our data to users even more specifically. The extensive iFurn database has been adapted to GRASS and is now available in various languages. iFurn Composer makes it easy to create assemblies as well as quickly, flexibly and easily import them directly into the planning software in any desired format. This means that the right components are always at hand and planning becomes even more efficient.
All software partners and products at a glance.
A compact overview listing all partners and planning software we collaborate with. It also lists all products that are maintained at the respective partners. Consequently, you can see at a glance which planning software includes which GRASS product. You can also find our contacts on the CAD microsite if you have any questions about the respective topics.

Kitchen Innovations Day 2025.
In February 2025, the Swiss kitchen industry association organised the Kitchen Innovations Day. A total of 54 exhibitors from the kitchen industry gathered at the trade fair in Safenwil. The highlight of the trade fair is the “Speakers Corner” format, where selected companies can showcase their new products in a maximum of seven minutes. GRASS was selected for one of the coveted presentation spaces, which is why we were able to showcase our Vionaro V8 highlight product.
“It was a great pleasure to be able to showcase our new Vionaro V8 drawer system at the Kitchen Innovations Day and share the enthusiasm for the product with our industry colleagues.”

TRADE FAIR USA
Successful attendance at KBIS 2025.
Traditionally, we kickstart the trade fair schedule in the USA at the largest trade event in the construction industry, Design & Construction Week. As part of this, Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) and International Builders Show (IBS) took place from 25 to 27 February. As usual, GRASS America attended with an impressive trade fair stand in Las Vegas.
The trade fair impresses with record numbers and GRASS excels with a new trade fair stand.
This year's DCW was the largest of its kind in the last 17 years and delivered record numbers. The event attracted over 124,000 professionals from the industry, with 2,500 exhibitors spread across more than 100,000 m². KBIS recorded 43,000 visitors and almost 700 exhibitors, while 1,800 exhibitors attended IBS. KBIS is an important platform for GRASS to identify new trends and product ideas, as well as for exchanging ideas with potential new customers and loyal, existing customers.
In cooperation with Canadian colleagues, a diverse GRASS America team presented the newly designed trade fair stand to a host of interested parties. The concept of the new exhibition stand focused on interaction and communication with visitors. This focus paid off: more than 200 companies, designers and entrepreneurs in total came for a chat, subsequently generating new orders.
