Intuitive, user friendly and service oriented: W.L. Gore &
Associates (Gore) is to offer its retailers, customers and consumer
oriented fabrics (COF) partners a new online platform. The new business
portal is to be officially launched at ISPO 2014. It provides useful
information and services related to the GORE-TEX® and WINDSTOPPER®
brands in ten different languages.
Gore’s COF partners will soon have a digital contact point for their
print and online communications. Using the new business portal at http://portal.gorefabrics.com
Gore’s partners can access a communication toolbox, web elements, a
demo shop and brand guidelines. An intuitive interface means that users
can easily find and download any logos, graphics, images, product
information or campaign details they may need. The portal will first be
launched in English. Other language versions will then follow,
including German, French, Spanish and Russian.
Easily integrated into existing websites
The demo shop is also easy to use. It provides users with
valuable advice, helpful ideas and special elements that make it easy to
integrate GORE-TEX® and WINDSTOPPER® products into an existing Web site
or a retailer’s Web store. The ingenious thing about this portal is
that these elements, or information modules, are available in different
formats (pop-up, overlay, iFrame) thus making it possible to assemble
the contents in a variety of ways.
Communication Toolbox
The communication toolbox provides a wide range of information
about GORE-TEX® and WINDSTOPPER® products. Everything you need to know
about these products is presented using powerful images, explanatory
texts and detailed illustrations. The toolbox also contains information
about how wearers should best care for their garments, i.e. how they
should be washed and dried, as well as text modules about the GORE-TEX®
“GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY™” satisfaction guarantee.
“We have revised the online offerings available to our partners
because more and more of our customers and retailers want to be able to
integrate information about our products and services into their own Web
sites,” explains Marlene Munteanu, responsible for the digital planning
and implementation of the business portal. The portal is to be further
developed and progressively expanded to include other interesting
features.
