Easy and Quick Furniture Assembly

CAF formula

CAF=Consumer Assembly Friendliness

Titus CAF formula provides a comparative measure for customer satisfaction. By using it manufacturers are able to evaluate their products internally or against those of their competitors.

While offering consumers easier and faster assembly, there are obvious advantages also for furniture manufacturers – buying, counting, bagging and stocking of fittings can be greatly reduced.
