The Challenge: A Good Platform That Could Be Better

Dakmaterialen.com was already using the Hyvä theme, a solid starting point. However, a modern frontend is not a final destination; it is a foundation to build upon. The webshop had a strong identity and a loyal customer base, but the combination of technical frontend imperfections, backend bottlenecks, and a growing assortment resulted in a platform that performed below its potential. At the same time, the specific nature of the target audience—professionals who want to order quickly and reliably, as well as DIYers who need advice and configuration—placed high demands on both performance and ease of use.

The Solution: Hyvä Optimization, Backend Improvement, and Ongoing Support

Younify thoroughly analyzed Dakmaterialen.com’s existing Hyvä implementation and subsequently implemented improvements on both the frontend and backend. Additionally, Younify provides ongoing support and maintenance to ensure the platform remains stable, responds quickly to requirements, and continuously improves.

Key Activities

Frontend Optimization on Hyvä

The existing Hyvä implementation was audited and technically refined: performance bottlenecks were resolved, UI inconsistencies were eliminated, and loading times and Core Web Vitals were further improved. The experience for both the professional on the construction site and the DIYer at home has become noticeably smoother.

Backend Optimization and Stability

The backend logic behind product configuration, the EPDM calculator, quote requests, and saved projects was optimized for higher stability, faster processing, and reduced error sensitivity. The foundation for further expansion has been laid.

B2B Functionality and Dakbazenclub

The business environment for professional buyers was technically strengthened: invoicing, customer groups with specific price agreements, and the workflow around the Dakbazenclub have become more stable and user-friendly.

Catalog and UX Improvement

Navigation, filtering, and product presentation were improved so that professionals can quickly find the right product by brand, type, and application, while DIYers are clearly guided through the product structure toward the correct EPDM package or configurator.

Ongoing Support and Maintenance

Younify provides Dakmaterialen.com with active support and maintenance: rapid handling of issues, proactive identification of improvement points, Magento updates, and guidance for new functionalities. The Dakmaterialen.com team always has a direct line to people who know their platform inside out.
