LOVE SHOWS ITSELF IN LITTLE ACTIONS.

Good intentions are not enough. It’s time to take our planet’s problems seriously. Roca helps you
show your love for the Earth with solutions for saving H2O and emitting less CO2.
We want to recover water and keep the sky blue.

Are you with us?

1.  If you want to save up to 50% of your water consumption, mixer faucets are the best option. Their “click” restriction system helps to reduce the flow of water: if you want a stronger flow you have to press the faucet upwards. It is also possible to reduce the temperature.

2. Electronic faucets have a presence detector that opens the faucet when you place your hands under it and closes it when you remove them.

3.  You can also save water in the shower. Most Roca showers have a water-saving position, with a rotating disc that regulates the flow so that you only use the amount of water you need.

4.  All Roca cisterns have a twin-button system that allows you to choose the amount of water you need to use. Pressing just one button you flush only 3 litres of water, and pressing both buttons discharges 6 litres when necessary.

5.  If you want to reduce the amount of water you use, you can easily fit a flow limiter to the faucets in your bathroom and kitchen. These mechanisms save up to 65% of water consumption by feeding air into the flow.

6.  Every time we use hot water we emit CO2. Roca’s Energy-Save faucets open directly in the cold position, avoiding turning on the boiler unnecessarily.

7.  Thermostatic faucets reduce CO2 emissions and save water because they allow you to select the exact temperature required, without wasting water or unnecessary heating energy. They also incorporate buttons to restrict temperature and flow.

With these small actions, just in the last 12 months, Roca has saved 100 billion litres of water worldwide. Because when it comes to saving water, every drop counts.

Show your love for the planet with Roca.

The smartest Office Furniture showroom in town!

8 02 2009

The Khimji’s Office Furniture showroom on the 2nd Floor of Bait Al Ahlam  in MBD doesn’t look like an office showroom at some points. In fact a ‘boring’ product like office safety boxes have got such an interesting backdrop that visitors to the showroom get themselves clicked against it!! No kidding!!

dsc00112The placement of a normal Plasma TV  in a glass wall gives  a look of a TV GLASS WALL. The speakers too are cleverly concealed on the sides in the red panels (see pix below). Perfect place for a meeting for 8-10 people, it seemed, where you need to project something from your laptop onto a good resolution screen. Interesting!

And finally to top it all; they have  massage chair for sale – which looks like an overgrown office chair- very inviting and comforting. How good would it be if employee recreation rooms had one such chair for you to get some relief from tired backs and shoulders in between projects and meetings! How about a poll on this! Ayes, write back, Nays, write back too.

New Origin Omani logo – does it talk to you?

4 02 2009

 

 

 

i-logo

New smart, modern colours, very stylish, does looks a bit like a telecom company logoNow compare it with old one 

old-omani-product-logo

Boring colours, looks dowdy, has the cliched thunbs up symbol!

But which one grabs you more ; pulls at your heart and pocket strings.

For a logo which has to get across to the local population only; which one do you think will get people to buy more Omani products when standing next to the supermarket shelf. Frankly I think the new one lacks the emotional tug!

Sometimes we are so eager to throw away the old that we lose out on the positives of it; ‘evolutionising’ a logo which is the concept of giving a makeover to keep it young and relevant, yet maintaining the benefits of the old seems to have  been ignored.

These incidentally are the personal views of the author of this blog and do not represent any official company viewpoint.

Inviting your views too!
