Roto Patio Inowa: Top selling system exceeds customer’s performance requirements
PVC European-style windows and doors are as popular in North America as those with an American design. The Canadian company, EuroLine Windows, in Delta, British Columbia, offers its customers both and therefore decided years ago to work with Roto Frank of America. Their new top seller is a tightly sealed sliding patio door based on the Roto Patio Inowa hardware system.
Founded in 1993, EuroLine Windows is focused on tightly sealed and perfectly insulating building elements made of uPVC. The company’s vision is to contribute to a reduction, and the eventual elimination of carbon pollution caused by heating and cooling in buildings. That is why the management focuses on the highest performance products. Both their customers and society benefit from the company’s commitment to the sustainable development and manufacturing of windows and doors.
Tightly sealed guaranteed
Wilbert Giesbrecht, Vice President of Operations at EuroLine Windows, ensures that all building elements leave the production line in consistently high quality and are thus guaranteed to meet customers’ ecological requirements. EuroLine Windows has been working with Roto hardware since 2007. At the time, the company wanted to buy European Tilt&Turn hardware directly from the world market leader, but this was just the beginning.
Wide range of hardware
Today, in addition to Roto NX, EuroLine Windows’ orders also include the X-DRIVE hardware for Casement & Awning windows, Roto Safe H650 door lock, Patio Lift Lift&Slide system, and the Parallel Sliding and Tilt&Slide system Patio Alversa. “Roto offers exactly the products we need in consistently high quality while providing excellent customer service,” emphasizes Giesbrecht. Another aspect that is important for performance and decisive for the choice of supplier, he says:
“Roto’s deliveries are reliable and on time.”
Worthwhile use
The Patio Inowa sliding system was introduced by EuroLine Windows amidst the Corona pandemic. “The preparations leading up to the start of production took us several months, as we established a new partnership with Aluplast, and trained our team for production and sales,” recalls Giesbrecht. “Technically,” he says, “the innovative closing mechanism across the frame and the variability of the system are impressive. The sash does not have to be lifted to open and close, which ensures ease of use and makes the system simple to operate. We all agree that this product was absolutely worth our effort.” Recalling Patio Inowas launch, Giesbrecht says:
“Roto offers excellent technical support.”
Bright prospects for the future
EuroLine Windows is constantly looking into the question of which features give a building element special durability and the best energy efficiency, while retaining a contemporary design. “When we got to know Patio Inowa, we were honestly thrilled by the concealed hardware technology, even in very narrow profiles. It was clear to us that as a window and door manufacturer for demanding and ecologically oriented builders, we could not pass up this sliding solution.” As expected, the new sliding system “got off to a flying start.”
In the meantime, management is convinced that the share of EuroLine Windows’ new sliding system will continue to grow steadily. This is great news for the production staff, who are happy to work with Patio Inowa because of the simple installation of the system.
The right choice
“In addition to energy efficiency, sound insulation and burglary protection are now playing an increasingly important role in North America,” says Giesbrecht. “Regardless of whether an element is opened by turning or sliding. No matter what size it is and what profile customers choose. We will be able to offer them an efficient solution for all functional aspects thanks to our hardware supplier." Roto’s wide product range allows EuroLine Windows to adapt to customer’s requirements while also guaranteeing a tight seal, noticeable operating comfort, and a sleek design.
Convinced of the future viability of the Patio Inowa sliding system, EuroLine Windows is investing heavily in advertising and training to arouse the interest of important industry influencers and new customers. Giesbrecht is convinced, “the more comprehensively we inform architects about the variety of possible Patio Inowa solutions, the better it will be for the homeowners and the environment.”
