Dekko makes £350,000 machinery investment

Dekko Window Systems says it has significantly boosted its production capabilities following a £350,000 investment in a Haffner SBA-5 automated machining centre.

The cutting-edge tool has recently been installed in Dekko’s 75,000ft2 manufacturing facility, enhancing operations and productivity to meet rising demand.

The Haffner SBA-5, described as a ‘machine powerhouse,’ is said to bring ‘unprecedented automation and efficiency’ to Dekko’s production line. The latest acquisition complements two existing machining centres.

“Our investment in the Haffner SBA-5 allows us to scale up production of our Deceuninck PVC-U range, ensuring we continue to meet our customers’ growing demands with unmatched quality,” said Kurt Greatrex, sales director at Dekko Window Systems.

This investment follows an acquisition of a Graf Synergy machine, also from Haffner, which enabled Dekko to introduce the world’s first fully seamless PVC-U window to the market. The new Haffner SBA-5 is set to play a crucial role in meeting the increasing demand for Dekko’s products, particularly for its upgraded Deceuninck range.

Kurt commentd: “Our seamless window has been a game-changer in the industry, with an extremely positive reaction from our customers. We anticipate the vast majority of our PVC-U sales to be fully seamless, making ongoing machinery investment an essential part of our future strategy.”

These significant investments are reported to have been made possible by Dekko’s acquisition by Inwido in 2022.
