As far as I know, the company DIO has been offering customers various interior and exterior products for 22 years, how many products can customers buy with you now?
The variety of products is a significant advantage of our company, currently customers can buy up to 60 names of both interior and exterior products in DIO. The first product was a vertical curtain-blind, which we started to produce on the spot. Then we couldn’t imagine if our sales area would become so wide and diverse. Every year, DIO offers at least two or three new products to our customers. It is important that more than 90% of these products are manufactured in our factory. Naturally, the service is added to all this, which is an integral and important part of the process. It is safe to say that such a company does not only exist in Georgia, but in many countries. In DIO you can buy curtain-blinds, different types of curtain systems, insect nets, Tapes, stretch ceilings, external protective blinds, aluminum and plastic doors and windows, shading systems, pergolas, umbrellas, winter garden glazing systems, sectional doors, shelters, barriers, Alakafi door electrical control systems. Our services are used by budget organizations, as well as private and legal entities.

As far as I know, you’re the head of department of interior products, which types of curtain-blinds are now trendy, what are the advantages and if you take into account the world trends?
Of course we consider. Consumers have become much more informed and demanding. We live in the age of the Internet in the 21st century. A new generation of architects and designers has emerged with exciting projects. Instead of Soviet-style buildings, modern glass buildings are being built, where sun protection curtain systems play a special role in creating the building’s microclimate. Recently, "screen" type curtain-blinds have become especially popular in such buildings.
"Screen" is a semi-transparent, mesh specialized fabric that is non-flammable, moisture-resistant and has excellent protection against direct sunlight, heat and ultraviolet radiation. It is used in residential apartments and offices, as well as in high humidity rooms, conservatories, swimming pools. Most importantly, the lowered position allows you to see beautiful views from the window, to perceive the space.
Given that the summer is quite hot and unfortunately often close to the building, the demand for light-resistant cover systems is growing. People try to protect themselves as much as possible from the sun, strangers and create a cozy environment. At this time, plain colored light-colored fabrics, or fabrics with decor elements, are used.
One of the most pressing topics during the summer is insects, how does DIO protect us from them?
In our company, there is a wide selection of insect protection nets for all customer demands, both in type and color. Due to the situation with Stink Bug in the country, we met this year with special training. With us you can buy stationary, rolling, pleated and slide mesh. As a rule, a stationary and mobile network is low-budget. The rest goes into a relatively premium class, especially the slide net, which is designed for very large stained glass windows. The rules of care are also different, especially during the winter. If in one case the net is closed and protected from external influences, in the other case it is desirable to remove and store it. However, periodic cleaning and maintenance is essential.
As far as I know, you have been a member of team DIO for 20 years? Tell us the things that led to your loyalty to your company?
It all started with a friendship that continues to this day, though that hasn’t stopped us from doing common work. These were very difficult years, but we all understood that we were doing a very interesting, new job, we were not afraid of challenges and purposefully, we were moving forward step by step. Every business has its own unique way of success. In the case of DIO, it is the family and then the family values already transferred to the business. Anyone who has had contact with our company will agree that DIO is a big family from which people find it very difficult to leave.
Finally, what news can we expect from DIO in the future?
I will not be ahead of events, but I will tell you that we will have news in the direction of curtain systems and insect nets. Collections are usually updated. In mid-August, our new branch will be opened in Telavi, which will serve the Kakheti region, and most importantly, from 2019, innovations are planned in terms of the company's strategic development, about which we will provide information to our customers later.
