Theinus Selected First Place for 16 Consecutive Years in the Tile Category of the '2021 Korea Quality Satisfaction Index'

Bathroom specialty company Theinus announced that it has won first place for 16 consecutive years in the ceramic tile category of the '2021 Korea Quality Satisfaction Index (KS-QEI)' organized by the Korea Standards Association (KSA).

The Korea Quality Satisfaction Index (KS-QEI) is the only comprehensive domestic quality satisfaction indicator that surveys and announces the excellence and satisfaction of quality based on consumers who have experience using the company's products and services, as well as experts on those products and services. The Korea Quality Satisfaction Index is characterized by quantifying various quality elements that consumers actually empathize with while using products or services.

In this year's Korea Quality Satisfaction Index evaluation, Theinus achieved excellent scores in all categories of the 'Usage Quality Index,' composed of performance, reliability, and durability, and the 'Emotional Quality Index,' composed of image, recognition, and novelty, proving its quality excellence by surpassing strong competitors.

A representative of Theinus said, "Our own stringent standards, which are tougher than the Korean Industrial Standard (KS), seem to have led to the result of winning the Korea Quality Satisfaction Index for 16 consecutive years," adding, "We will continue to research quality and technology to create enjoyable bathroom spaces."
