PAGEN serves up news in Milan

From November 15 to 18, 2023, Milan hosted the prestigious Made Expo, which organizers estimate was the largest event of the Italian construction industry in recent years. More than 80,000 registered participants and 1,350 exhibitors best summarize ME 2023, which is one of the four events of the MIBA-Milan International Building Alliance. The Polish joinery industry at the event was represented by PAGEN, which served up some excellent novelties in volleyball style.

At its booth, the Malopolska-based manufacturer presented complete home furnishings for joinery - from XXL-format entrance doors, terrace doors, terrace pergola and windows in ALU and PVC systems, to GENIUS garage doors, roller shutters and facade blinds powered by Somfy.
 

Doors open for the premiere

Of exceptional interest at PAGEN's booth was the premiere PIVOT MB-86N entrance door, at which even tall LUBE Volley players were not so "impressive". An aesthetically pleasing milled hilt with a button in the asymmetrical panel, opening with a numeric keypad, a low threshold, a wide passage light, plus good thermal (from 0.73 (W/m²K)) and acoustic insulation and high water and air tightness are just selected features of the MB-86N Pivot Door system.
 

Fans of classic-sized entrance doors had the opportunity to see PVC Modern Line doors in Jett Black Matt with a red designer accent, as well as aluminum Premium Line doors in the Aluprof MB-104 system with a 3-point espagnolette and concealed hinges and the logo of the PAGEN-sponsored Italian club LUBE Volley milled into the panel. The manufacturer thus showed that it is able to produce any design at the customer's request.
 

At its booth, PAGEN also presented terrace doors in HST systems - PVC Evolution Drive in the so-called D-scheme (two sliding leaves) with Eco Pass barrier-free threshold, and aluminum Modern Line AS-178 terrace doors in the Aluron system. Both constructions were made in impressive dimensions of 500 cm x 245 cm.

New products in the capital of fashion, art and design

In Milan, special attention was paid to the PVC window in the SALAMANDER greenEvolution system, covered on the outside with raw copper, and on the inside with embossed recycled eco-leather. Such a combination was made possible by SALAMANDER's latest series of so-called realMaterial decorative films and textures. It was this PAGEN product that was honored in the finals of the Best of IBS Awards 2023 in Las Vegas in early 2023.

Another novelty from the SALAMANDER family of systems presented at the stand of the Malopolska-based manufacturer was double-leaf balcony doors in the proEvolution system (72 mm). Most importantly, this innovative, durable and energy-efficient PVC window system is offered at prices similar to the popular Comfort system (73 mm), provides the parameters of window systems in the 82 mm class and stands out as the unique "whitest white" among window profiles offered on the market. The Made Expo also provided an opportunity to present the OpenSky 120 terrace pergola, introduced to PAGEN's portfolio this season.

The pergola is equipped with a gabled drainage system, ensuring effective drainage of rainwater from the roof over the entire surface of the column with a capacity of up to 57 l/min. The roof module, made up of lamellas available in two shapes, allows an extremely smooth change of inclination in the axis from 0 to 135 degrees, and the roof control mechanism has been completely hidden in the construction of the system. The use of an innovative method of fitting the profiles made it possible to ensure the stability of the entire system, as well as aesthetically pleasing joints with no visible gaps, explains Sebastian Sosin, Production Director at PAGEN.

The culmination of the 25th anniversary

Visitors to PAGEN's booth were impressed by the number of products presented. In addition to the solutions already presented, the company demonstrated an Exclusive Line double-hung window in the Schüco LivIng system with aluminum overlay, a Premium Line single-hung window in a renovation frame, and a Schüco aluminum balcony door with an installation depth of 75 mm.

The extensive product portfolio, the prominently accentuated sponsorship of the Italian Serie A club, and the crowd of customers at the booth reflect both an established position in the Italian market and 25 years in business.

Made Expo is a legendary international event that integrates architecture, design and construction enthusiasts. The fair's refreshed and innovative formula this year created a space to discuss sustainability and innovation. With our presence at Made Expo, on the one hand, we confirmed our strong market position, and established business relationships with strategic Partners, and on the other hand, we spoke in a practical way in this important discussion about the future. I am pleased that our team has such a large number of supporters - concludes Dominik Chamiolo, CEO of PAGEN.
