Blum, the Austrian manufacturer of premium furniture fittings, has expanded its network in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region with the opening of a new interactive Experience Centre in Vashi, Navi Mumbai.

Located at APMC Market 1, Sector 19C, the new facility was inaugurated on 18 September 2026 and is operated in partnership with Vision Enterprises. The centre is designed to allow homeowners, furniture makers, architects and designers to experience Blum's furniture hardware through hands-on demonstrations and real-life living space setups.

The centre was co-inaugurated by Maarten de Vries, Managing Director, Blum India, and Vijay Singh Chandaliya, owner of Vision Enterprises.

Positioned within Navi Mumbai's hardware trade hub, the Experience Centre brings Blum's furniture solutions closer to local homeowners and industry professionals. Visitors can interact with the products, explore different applications and understand how furniture hardware can influence everyday usability, ergonomics and design.

Hands-On Experience with Blum Hardware

The showroom features several of Blum's furniture fitting systems, including the LEGRABOX drawer system, which combines a slim 12.8 mm side profile with a smooth opening and closing motion.

The AVENTOS top wall cabinet systems are also showcased, demonstrating solutions designed for kitchen wall cabinets and handleless furniture designs. Visitors can explore both mechanical and electrical motion technologies that support effortless opening and closing.

The interactive format allows customers to test the hardware rather than simply viewing products off the shelf, giving them an opportunity to understand the functionality and movement of different systems before making design decisions.

Commenting on the opening, Maarten de Vries, Managing Director, Blum India, said, “The booming residential ecosystem of Navi Mumbai demands a premier living experience. We opened Blum's experience centre in Vashi to make world-class Austrian engineering easily accessible to the city.”

He added that the centre enables visitors to experience the motion, ergonomics and quality of Blum's solutions firsthand, while acknowledging Vision Enterprises for helping bring the brand closer to furniture makers and homeowners in Vashi.

Vijay Singh Chandaliya, owner of Vision Enterprises, said, “Partnering with Blum to open this space right here is fantastic because it means local designers and architects don't have to drive into Mumbai anymore just to see top-tier fittings. Everything they need is on display right here in Vashi.”

He added that visitors can use the live setups to understand the difference that furniture hardware can make to the functionality of a home.

Experience Centre Now Open for Walk-Ins

The new Blum Experience Centre at Vision Enterprises is now open for walk-ins. Homeowners and builders can explore the live product displays, while visitors can also consult with a modular kitchen designer to develop layouts and evaluate suitable furniture fitting solutions.

The centre's location within the APMC Market provides access to Navi Mumbai's growing residential and furniture ecosystem while strengthening Blum's local presence across the MMR.
