PVC-U window and door manufacturer, Armstrong Industries, has signed with Kömmerling, having changed from another systems company, with whom they had reportedly been an established customer for 23 years.
The Coventry based manufacturer has been in business since 1996, operating in the South East, Midlands and Home Counties and has already started production of the Kömmerling 70 system in the form of C70 and O70, along with the enhanced PremiLine patio door. The decision to make the change was, according to managing director, John Armstrong, ‘a decision that I should have made several years ago, yet the re-ignited brand this year was the real catalyst for change.’
He added: “We tried to build a price orientated business and it was seemingly an unsustainable race to the bottom. Now, with investment in what I believe is the best systems house and new German Rotox machinery, we want to build our brand at the upper end of the market as do our valued customers.”
Armstrong Industries will also be actively promoting its in-house paint line which enables it to finish any Kömmerling window or door to RAL and even Farrow & Ball colours.
Gareth Jones, MD of Profine UK, said: “We’re thrilled to bring Armstrong Industries into the Kömmerling family and this is yet another business that has recognised the re-awakening of the brand in the UK.”
