Profine set to stoke up Kömmerling in UK
7th July 2020

Profine UK is set to begin extruding the Kömmerling 70 products in the Huthwaite factory that it gained in its Synseal/Aperture acquisition by early Q4, it was confirmed this week.

The company, which bought the assets from administration in May read story also reports strong sales across the acquired WarmCore, Evolve and Legend brands.

Brian McDonald, sales director of profine UK said: “There’s been considerable increased traffic on the internet for windows and doors as measured by the latest Google statistics, while social media engagements have increased notably across the industry as a trade platform, along with consumers too. With many jobs already in the pipeline it’s been a strong start to the sector, but we have to remain cautious.”

He continued: “While we have had an exceptional start, we realise that there are other pressures within the industry including furlough strategies, the payment of bills on time and ultimately the movement of cash from the consumer up the supply chain. It’s paramount that we all work together for the greater good, but from our perspective, sales have accelerated strongly since we’ve re-opened with measures in place, which is great news for us and our trade partners.”

The Profine Group had been seeking a UK extrusion base for some time before the Aperture acquisition, as owner and CEO Dr Peter Mrosek has earlier explained read story.
