PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES IN INTEGRAL BLIND TECHNOLOGY
In addition to facilitating sustainable growth for Morley Glass, the partnership has helped Pellini develop too, according to Alessandro Pellini, Commercial Director of Pellini S. p. A.:
“ As we mark 22 years of partnership with Morley Glass & Glazing, we would like to take this opportunity to sincerely celebrate the symbiotic relationship that we have built in the supply of our integrated blind systems, which has contributed to the growth of both companies’ businesses and to the increase in the market’ s demand for this technology.
“ When, back in 2004, Morley Glass decided to invest in knowledge, production equipment, promotional tools and a service team entirely dedicated to an, until then“ minor” asset for glassworks – namely integral blinds, no one could have predicted that the company would become not only the UK’ s sales leader but also a trendsetter in this field.”
Given the volumes of integral blind units that Morley Glass manufactures, it is ideally positioned to provide installer
feedback to shape future developments. These co-developed products help meet the demands for Morley Glass in the UK market, but they also offer opportunities for Pellini globally.
Amongst the most recently launched products developed with Morley Glass’ s market insights are the SV + magnetic slider controlled Venetian integral blind system. This version of the popular SV System, which incorporates a side guide down either the left or right hand side of the IGU to enable the magnetic slide to move up and down, as well as tilt the slats, offers a different aesthetic through the addition of a second‘ dummy’ guide on the opposite side to give a symmetrical appearance.
A PARTNERSHIP THAT KEEPS BUILDING
The co-development of the SV + demonstrates how ScreenLine ® integral blinds have clear differentiators when it comes to more closely meeting customer needs and tastes compared to many other shading and privacy solutions. And it shows how valuable the strength and longevity of the Pellini and Morley Glass partnership is to the market.
Alessandro Pellini adds,“ The fact that they have supplied hundreds of thousands of glazed units over two decades to the best window makers and fitters in the country, and developed new solutions and applications for the residential and commercial domains in association with Pellini, shows the contribution that they have made to growing the integral blinds market – both in the UK and internationally.
“ The partnership between the two companies has always been based on mutual trust, the commitment to excellence and quality, and a shared vision whereby integral blinds can be an effective and exclusive way of protecting buildings from unnecessary heat and light gains, as well as ensuring privacy, hygiene and a look that suits every living and working environment.
“ Morley Glass & Glazing’ s confidence in Pellini throughout these years has been both an honour and a driving force behind our continued dedication. We are truly grateful to Ian Short and his team for the opportunity to support their way of working, which has served as a model to many Pellini clients worldwide, who were looking for best practices to succeed in the promotion of ScreenLine ® integrated blind systems.
“ As we look ahead, we do so with enthusiasm and renewed commitment, confident that the foundation we have built will continue to support even greater achievements in the years to come.”
