ZFB - Zentrum für Bucherhaltung GmbH from Leipzig is a highly specialised and quality management-certified service provider for the preservation, rescue and restoration of books, files, documents and other papers. The company has been supporting libraries, archives, museums and administrations in particular in their social mission to preserve originals at the highest professional level since 1997. With its restoration and conservation services, ZFB fights acid in paper, ink erosion, mould, binding damage and damage caused by fire and water disasters.
Proper storage and preservation of files, books, archive objects and individual sheets can contribute significantly to their optimal preservation. ZFB - Zentrum für Bucherhaltung GmbH from Leipzig specialises in the preservation, rescue and restoration of books, files, documents and other papers and has developed numerous DIN-certified protective packaging solutions. These have been offered for sale for some time via a classic product catalogue and distribution. For many decisive reasons, including reaching a larger target group, the company has decided to open an online shop as an additional sales channel.
For the online shop of ZFB we have Shopware 6 for the ZFB online shop. Firstly, we provided appropriate advice and structuring with regard to the presentation of the products. We also successfully adapted the existing CD from the ZFB website. Shopware is scalable and powerful and can be easily expanded. In order to translate the classic requirements such as the offline catalogue into the online presentation, we also worked with various supplementary plugins. These are all compatible with Shopware 6 and skilfully round off the system.
The Price on request - module allows you to request an individual price for items or the entire shopping basket. This option was necessary because the items on offer can be customised in size and therefore a separate request must be made. With the shipping tool Sendcloud optimises the entire order processing shipping process. All shipping service providers relevant to ZFB are represented here. In addition to purchase on account and prepayment, payment via PayPal is also possible. The integration of PayPal (pre-integrated) completes the ordering process and ensures simple and secure payment. PayPal acts as a payment service provider for payment processing. However, it also offers the payment methods credit card and direct debit or, as usual, payment with a PayPal account.
When implementing the ZFB online shop, we realised both the basic structure and the fine details, from enquiries to payment methods.
Finally, we can present a visually very attractive online shop, where customers have been able to find a wide range of protective packaging made from corrugated and solid board since September 2020. The design agency Artkolchose has also given the shop an appealing corporate design, which we have successfully integrated into Shopware 6.
We have thus successfully established a new sales channel and paved the way for the company's digitalisation.
