History

1999

1999 Repositioning of the HEWI brand. Advancing from the production of individual components, the company now turns to the development of complete series. In addition, a new corporate design is launched. HEWI presents the new colour system: 19 colours, subdivided into basic, neutral and pastel colour climates, provide increased freedom of design.

The travelling expedition, "Peach Blossom and Cyber Blue - Goethe - Colour - Space", is originated and implemented
with the support of HEWI in Weimar.
HEWI launches its new 477 sanitary-ware series. Interior designers and architects now have a complete series of interior fittings for the property development sector.
In order to be able to best meet the specific planning and implementation requirements in the given field, HEWI has decided to set up a new subsidiary company - ENTRO, Systeme für den Bau GmbH. ENTRO will, in future, be responsible for the company’s product programme, primarily encompassing handrails, impact protection systems and banisters. Not only does this move enhance the spectrum of products HEWI offers to include stair systems, but it also means that products made of stainless steel and glass are now available.
