For ALUXIL France has been a very important market for almost 20 years. The tried and tested method to build own brand in the country has been a regular presence at the Paris BATIMAT fair, one of the key events in construction business in Europe.

Also this year our stand was very popular. It is an optimistic prospect, since French market is very important for us. We see a huge potential there, especially that our product range is dedicated to clients’ needs in France. What is more, government programs that subsidize exchange of woodwork enhance the development of the window and door market. – says Marcin Kloska, sales director in ALUXIL SA.
