Ravi Balakrishnan, Managing Director of aluplast India shared insights into the company’s approach, aligning with the vision of the founder Manfred J Seitz, “From the very beginning, our founder envisioned establishing our business globally, and we have been a part of the Indian market for many decades.

It offers options of 2 and 3 tracks with additional track choices and can accommodate glazing up to 11mm thickness, demonstrating good resistance to wind load. The IDEAL 1000, also featuring a 54 mm construction depth, is a 3-chamber profile system, ideal for outward open windows, and can accommodate glass up to 24mm thickness. Both products are designed to be compatible with existing glazing beads and are tailored for Mivan construction technology with lower sill widths.
aluplast‘s “Made-in-India” and “Made-for-India” uPVC windows and doors showcase their dedication and trust towards the Indian market. Known for their durability, minimal maintenance, and energy efficiency, these products are engineered to withstand India’s diverse climatic conditions, offering long-lasting performance. Since establishing its manufacturing plant in Vadodara, Gujarat, in 2016, aluplast has been committed to delivering quality and style to Indian homes and buildings.
Despite its international reach, aluplast remains a family-run business, now in its second generation. It is characterized by flat hierarchies and quick decision-making, attributes that have been pivotal in its success. The Seitz family’s leadership has seen aluplast transform into a leading company in the industry, balancing innovation with a deep connection to regional roots.
