Following its attendance at this year’s Fensterbau Frontale exhibition, industry software specialist, Windowmaker, says that manufacturers want software that fits their business, works with the tools they already use, and comes from a company that understands this industry from the inside.

Remi Gruszka, head of sales UK and Europe, said:

“This was one of the most focused shows I can remember. Manufacturers are dealing with real change. U-values, building compliance, sustainability requirements are all shifting, and they need software that keeps up.

β€œWhat that means in practice is that choosing software is choosing a partner, not just a product. For the first time in a while, that relationship felt as important as anything else on the table.”

Rima Singh, managing director, said:

“Manufacturers from across the UK, Europe, and further afield were telling us the same thing. They want their software to work with the rest of their business.

β€œConnecting to SAP, communicating through WhatsApp, opening up through APIs to the tools their teams already use. Flexibility and open integration have always been part of how Windowmaker is built. Fensterbau reminded us that the industry has caught up with what we have been offering for years.”

Windowmaker serves more than 4,000 window and door manufacturers across more than 70 countries.
