WHO WE ARE
Eastern Westphalia? It’s the cradle of the kitchen industry. And us? We’re Pronorm, and we’re right in the middle of it. But we believe we are more than just another player. We are not interchangeable - in most cases, our competitors don’t even compare. We put customers, not products, at the centre of all we do and think. What does the customer need? What appeals to them? What are their expectations, requirements, and values? By answering these questions, we can develop what makes us stand out and what makes us so unique: Exactly the right kitchen, meeting the highest expectations for quality, with a modern, yet timeless design. Of course, our kitchens are always made in Germany, right here in Vlotho, as sustainably as possible. They are then perfectly planned and implemented via regional dealers, and installed to be the heart of a family's cooking, living space, and life for many years to come, around the world.
OUR VALUES
It all starts with an idea. We develop and research, produce and deliver based on that idea. We are driven by the will to do and deliver our best, day by day, with regional design and global implementation. A good idea? It doesn’t just come off the shelf. Even today, good ideas remain the result of creativity, experience, and curiosity. All of these values lie in us, paired with the strong desire to continuously develop ourselves and our products. With the ideas of today, prepared for the future.
