Antipodean appeal

Northern Ireland based manufacturer APEER, is celebrating its first export to Australia but says it might not be the last.

Apeer’s Marketing Manager, Linda Tomb, explained: “The homeowner, who lives in Mittagong, NSW, was building his house to German Passivhaus standards so choosing an energy efficient entrance door was obviously an extremely important part of the project.

“After researching a variety of options online, the homeowner eventually contacted us directly with his requirements,” continued Linda. “He wanted a modern style door with outstanding thermal properties and liked the stainless steel effect on our Modo doors.

 “The lead time was a little longer than usual due to customs clearance and shipping, and we needed to provide special packaging for the courier, but we shipped directly to the address in Australia. Now it’s been installed, the customer has told us that he’s delighted with his door and it complements his property perfectly – he’s even had lots of positive comments from neighbours and passers by, so while this might have been the first door that we’ve supplied to Australia, we’re hoping that it might not be the last!”
