GROUP RE-ENERGISED
FOR 40TH BIRTHDAY
The managing director of Epwin Window Systems Division
has outlined the company’s plans for the future - during
celebrations of the Epwin Group’s 40th anniversary.
Clare O’Hara spoke to
members of the window
and door industry’s press
to offer a view of where
the company is heading
next. Its brands, including Profile 22, Spectus,
Swish, PatioMaster and
Safeware, are all thriving
with major product and
customer support initiatives brought to market
or planned for each.
With reference to Profile
22 Optima, one of the largest investments in Epwin’s
history, Clare described the
launch as being ‘a great way
to celebrate the company’s
birthday.’
People were the company’s most important asset,
she said, as she introduced
a number of new faces to
the business. Customers
would be the greatest focus
going forward, for which
investment continues with
new support systems and
infrastructure.
Of these, Epwin’s new
foiling plant anticipated the
growing demand for coloured profiles with the company’s brands all showing
increasing market share as
a result.
Part of the investment in
Optima included the installation of the most advanced
extrusion lines available,
which are making returns in
respect of product quality,
production efficiency and
environmental impact.
