The Architectural Hardware Division of the company offers hardware for various opening solutions catering to both Aluminium and UPVC window systems.

He further adds, “In such a scenario, open windows are required to minimize the energy costs during various operations and the process in turn helps to dissipate any heat buildup within the building.
Elaborating further he added that there are also various types of opening solutions catering to different requirements of the industry. For example, in the case of highrise buildings, the use of parallel opening windows would help in increased ventilation and user-safety. Based on application and client requirement, the company specifies the most suitable hardware options, keeping the comfort and safety of the occupants in mind. The player currently offers hardware solutions for Casement windows, casement doors, Tilt & Turn windows, Parallel openables, and Sliding windows/doors.
