On 7th February 2024, profine UK Ltd hosted a trade press event at its Huthwaite facility to showcase the considerable investment in people, products and processes that has been undertaken since acquiring the site in 2020.
A £multi-million investment programme is in place and shows no sign of slowing down thanks to the commitment of parent company profine Group, helping to transform the site into a world-class manufacturing facility.
profine UK’s diversification strategy will see export sales grow considerably over the next five years including Kömmerling 70mm PVCu systems and WarmCore, a revolutionary hybrid platform. WarmCore will feature heavily this year on the profine Group’s stand at Fensterbau Frontale, Nuremberg, Germany from the 19th to the 22nd of March.
During the visit, the media were provided with details on a new partnership scheme, Kömmerling At Home, an introduction to the WarmCore platform in its entirety, and a factory tour including the newly opened Design Centre used to host visits from Kömmerling’s customers, prospects and business associates.
The media were surprised by the scale of transformation taken place at the site, as Robert Thiroff, managing director of profine UK and Kömmerling explains. He said: ‘We created a detailed plan of investment here in Huthwaite from the very start of the acquisition with a clear vision of how we wanted the business to grow.
‘Creating stronger relations with our supply-chain partners through Kömmerling At Home and being able to provide an avenue where we sell UK designed products such as WarmCore globally will bring fantastic benefits,’ Robert continues, ‘but, we still have ongoing investment plans across the business. We will continue to thrive through the development of our people, products and services, including a programme of sustainability for solar PV, recycling and the integration of profine Energy.’
