Italian-based flat glass machinery supplier Forel S.p.a has announced the launch of Forel UK & Ireland Ltd, with admin, customer support and parts warehouse.
The operation is headed by existing area manager Alex Makuc, pictured, who explained that servicing the particular demands of UK and Ireland customers requires a direct presence closer to the point of use to offer a complete order to installation consultancy.
“The UK and Ireland are major markets,” he added, “In recent years, demand for flat glass has seen significant growth, both in the residential and commercial sectors. However, this is not only an increase in quantity, but also in quality. As a consequence, glaziers are encouraged to equip themselves with industry leading machinery. Forel is the strategic choice for flat and insulated glass processing.
Forel’s flat glass solutions have been available in the UK and Ireland for over 30 years, previously via Promac as dealer.
The 460sqm Stansted office is staffed exclusively by Forel personnel and includes both administrative offices, customer support and parts warehouse.
The office is at:
Unit 3, M11 Business Link,
Parsonage Road, Stansted, Essex (UK)
CM24 8GF
