Kanaete Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minami-ku, Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture; Representative Director: Toru Ishida), which develops high-end residential equipment under the concept of 'bringing the extraordinary into daily life,' began offering the new 'Project-Specific Consideration List Function' on April 13, 2026. This function is for general clients building homes and professionals in architecture and interior design, and is available immediately upon free membership registration.

The development background addresses the difficulty of conveying preferences and the burden of collecting drawings when selecting water fixtures. While custom washbasins allowing free selection of bowls and faucets are popular, communication barriers exist between clients and professionals. Clients find it difficult to accurately convey product numbers and specifications to designers and builders. Professionals spend significant time creating proposals by clipping images from manufacturer websites and downloading individual PDF dimension drawings.

Crafree developed a unique system to seamlessly complete specification review and information sharing online, eliminating this effort.

The new function has three key points supporting co-creation between clients and professionals. First, clients can accurately share requests with professionals via a single URL. They can create folders like 'For My Home' on the website, save preferred Crafree products (bowls, faucets, accessories, etc.), and share the generated 'sharing URL' via LINE or email. This instantly conveys accurate specifications, including product numbers and colors, through text and images. Second, it assists professionals with bulk downloads of proposals and drawings. Professionals can output 'beautiful presentation boards (PDF)' with one click from the consideration list. Additionally, they can download dimension drawings and approval drawings for each piece of equipment in bulk, which are essential for on-site construction management. This eliminates the need for cutting and pasting from catalogs or searching for drawings, allowing them to focus on design work. Third, a 'Smart Reminder Function' is planned for future updates to prevent forgotten purchases. This feature will automatically recommend suitable essential parts when a washbasin is added to the list, preventing ordering omissions like forgetting a dedicated drain trap. This will prevent issues like construction delays due to missing parts.

The 'Architectural and Construction Materials Exhibition 2026,' held this month, received positive feedback from many professionals who expressed a desire for such a function. Crafree will continue to update its services as a 'functional infrastructure' to support clients in creating their ideal spaces and professionals in their smooth operations, beyond just selling aesthetically pleasing products.

Crafree develops water-related products, primarily for washroom spaces, with the theme of 'creating hotel-like spaces.' The brand aims to enhance quality of life and create comfortable moments by incorporating the 'inspiration and tranquility felt during travel' into daily life. Its products, which fuse manufacturing technology and aesthetic sensibility, are highly regarded by professionals in design, construction, and architecture.

Kanaete Co., Ltd. is located at 2-10-25 Minami-ku, Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture, 815-0035. Its business activities include the planning, manufacturing, and sales of residential equipment. Contact: Crafree Division, Kanaete Co., Ltd., TEL: 0120-987-559, Email: info@crafree.jp.
