Fabricators widening their aluminium product range, says Insight Data
Posted on 21/06/2016
Aluminium window, door and commercial glazing fabricators are increasing their product range to capitalise on new opportunities, says industry experts Insight Data.
Insight carries out continuous research across the industry and has recorded 30 fabricators adding an additional aluminium system to their range in the last 3 months alone.
Jade Greenhow, operations manager at Insight Data commented;
“Aluminium systems companies are clearly becoming more active and keen to develop their fabricator base. We’ve seen 3 new aluminium fabricators set up in the last 3 months, but it’s the number of companies taking on additional systems that is truly remarkable.”
The increase spans the residential, light commercial and architectural glazing markets. Fabricators are offering trade and residential customers a wider choice of products and specifications, while systems companies are becoming more active in having their products specified by architects, presenting commercial and architectural glazing contractors with new opportunities.
Jade added; “the aluminium market has enjoyed significant growth in recent times, particularly in the residential market fuelled by bi-folding doors and increased demand for large-span patio doors, but it seems aluminium systems companies are now stepping up their activity across the window, door and façade market in general.”
