Assa Abloy has found tremendous value in our long-standing membership with HIRI. What sets HIRI apart is its ability to bring together manufacturers, retailers, and industry partners for thoughtful, data-driven conversations that go beyond headlines and trends. We view HIRI as a trusted partner and an important part of how we stay informed and connected within the evolving home improvement ecosystem.

HIRI’s commitment to fostering a connected, insight-driven community aligns perfectly with our mission, and we look forward to continuing our partnership in 2026.

The annual HIRI summit has become essential to my team. It’s one of the rare chances we get each year to connect with our industry partners, reflect on our current position, and plan for the upcoming year. The agenda improves every time, as they continually incorporate member feedback and focus on relevant content for our decision-making. Each summit provides me with fresh insights on navigating the market, from the broadest perspective down to the direct impact on our customers, both homeowners and professionals.

C+R Research proudly sponsors the HIRI Summit each year because it offers an unparalleled opportunity to connect with corporate researchers across the home improvement industry. The conference’s intimate size fosters meaningful conversations and deeper relationships, something larger events often can’t provide. Its dedicated focus on home improvement also allows us to showcase and strengthen our expertise in this space. We look forward to continuing our sponsorship and building new partnerships through shared learning and collaboration with industry leaders.

The HIRI Summit is the most valuable event for insights into the home improvement industry that can help navigate such a complex landscape. Not only do experts present and share quantifiable data, there are dozens of opportunities to connect with other attendees who also provide qualitative insights that brings incredible value to our business strategy, both long and short term.

As a long-standing partner to HIRI, sponsoring the 2025 HIRI Summit Cocktail Event was an easy decision for OpenBrand. The Summit remains a premier venue for connecting with leading manufacturers and retailers and engaging in meaningful, data-driven conversations about the challenges and opportunities shaping home improvement.

LIXIL and the American Standard Brands have been a loyal member of the Home Improvement Research Institute for years. Our membership with HIRI is one of the more valuable subscriptions offering an incredible breadth of research on the consumer, PRO, and the industry. If you’re operating lean and looking for data or want to get up to seed on the trends in the home improvement industry, this is a great source.

Our HIRI membership provides valuable resources and insights into the home improvement industry, particularly in forecasting the size of the home improvement market. We've benefited greatly from our participation in the annual conference, which brings together a wide range of professionals for meaningful discussions on the industry and, of course, for valuable networking opportunities.

Our Marketing, Sales, and Innovation teams have been utilizing HIRI research increasingly more to supplement our primary market research, to identify trends, and to support customer line reviews. And the webinars offered have been a great way for us to better understand the reports. We also appreciate how HIRI is evolving and expanding its research scope to further meet the needs of its members.
