Turkey'S Alkosan Aluminyum Sanayi Ve Ticaret will promote its range of aluminium-wooden composite door window systems and glass painting systems, in association with its partner Atis Anadolu Dis Ticaret, at the Big 5 show.
Our products are unique, and as Dubai is an ideal market, we will be showcasing our range for the first time, at stand 6B292, says Mustafa Basar Anil of Alkosan.
Alkosan has been in the business of manufacturing aluminium-wooden door and window systems since 1968, and claims to be the only wooden tongue-and-grove joint aluminium window system manufacturer in the region.
The company also has a glass painting facility, where it manufactures coloured and painted stained glass and separator stained glass for windows and doors.
The doors and windows manufactured by the company are resistant to the extremes of weather and do not crack and corrode, says Anil.
The company with a staff strength of 25 and an annual turnover of $1 million, has a production capacity of 10,000 tonnes per month, and has conducted feasibility studies to increase production and invest in newer technology and machinery.
The company registered good growth this year with production and sales having increased threefold over last year, according to Anil.
Alkosan has entered into an agreement with Atis Foreign Trade to launch its products in the international markets.
Says Anil Our target markets are the high quality construction projects of the UAE and Kuwait. We are likely to increase our production capacity in line with demand in the newer markets. The UAE is expected to become a good market for our product as the construction industry is very buoyant, and there are a whole lot of emerging projects which will be requiring high quality products, such as ours.
We hope to make Dubai a launchpad to our export markets in the rest of the world, he adds.
