BURRI public elements AG was founded in 1907 and is today managed by the fourth generation. On the one hand, the Swiss company specializes in high-quality Public Elements® and on the other hand, it also implements complex infrastructure projects. The products are the benchmark and when it comes to showcase projects such as the Olympic Athletes Village in London, BURRI is the first choice.
About the project
The new website is the most important marketing instrument of all for the global expansion, accordingly the project "Corporate Website Relaunch" had absolute priority: Since the end of January 2016 the new website - in its first version - is online. Further optimizations and larger expansion stages will take place over the course of the year, which is why we will forego a comprehensive project description here for the time being and only list a few keywords:
- Strategy, design, interactive prototype
- Frontend development with Bootstrap Framework / SASS
- Drupal
- very complex data model with numerous relations between products, projects and other data
- various own module developments for the administration of the very large product range
- Continuous Integration Workflow / Git Flow
- Premium Hosting / Continuous Deployment Cloud Hosting (Platform.sh)
- complex web application: product finder
- multilingual
- Google Analytics / Google Tag Manager
- approx. 1.244.469 links in 8.516 URLs
- ...
- PDF Generator
- Newsletter Tool
- Landing Page Generator
Why Drupal was chosen
For this web site, we had to intergrate a huge and highly diverse product catalog with other resources as projects, services, use cases etc. Drupal's mechanisms for referencing and linking all types of different entities together allowed us to model these interconnections between them and present intelligent combinations of them via views – for example in the product finder
