Virtual Toolbox & Product Finder App

KNIPEX, a globally renowned manufacturer of high-quality pliers, aimed to capitalize on its strong brand love by providing a different kind of tool for its community – a product finder and virtual toolbox in the form of an innovative app. As a leader in creative tech, Demodern was tasked with delivering a solution that would resonate with KNIPEX fans and help everyone select the right tools for their needs.

Puzzle of Pliers

Our main challenge was to address the complex task of tool selection from a catalog of hundreds of products with endless features. With its extensive range of high-quality tools, customers often find it daunting to pinpoint the perfect KNIPEX plier or tool for their particular requirement – building a system that would make this more intuitive was no easy task. However, given KNIPEX's community's affection for its products, we went above and beyond to give back the love.

Multi-disciplinary Challenge

Meeting the needs of KNIPEX's diverse markets and integrating the vast catalog of products into an intuitive, comprehensive application presented a multi-disciplinary challenge. Our objective was to combine multiple data sources into one well-rounded app that could be successfully rolled out to all of KNIPEX's markets.

Every Pot Has Its Plier

With React Native at its core, Demodern's team aimed to construct an easy-to-navigate, user-friendly application that combined utility, technology, and customer experience. Leveraging our understanding of the KNIPEX community and brand, we decided to include features that offered a personalized experience and value, making tool selection an exciting and rewarding journey.

Navigating the KNIPEX universe with Confidence

To ensure users had access to the full range of Knipex's tools, we created an easily accessible digital product catalog. Users could filter through various tools based on their specific needs, making the tool selection process effortless and convenient.

Virtual Toolbox for the Fans

We built a tool advisor - the 'KNIPEXplorer' - that guides users to the perfect pair of pliers in just a few steps. This feature, tailored to individual needs, transformed a complex selection process into a simplified, engaging activity. To make the app more personal, we added a wishlist feature. Users could add their favorite tools to a virtual toolbox, enabling them to plan future purchases and keep their collections and favorites in one place.
