Forterro Windows and Doors to exhibit at Batimat 2026

At Batimat 2026, Forterro will bring its Windows and Doors portfolio together on a major industry stage for the first time.

Visitors will be able to meet the teams behind 3E Look, Klaes, Logikal, Logikal MES, Quotila and Unilink, explore how these solutions complement one another, and see how manufacturers are using digital technologies to tackle everyday challenges across their businesses.

The joint appearance follows Forterro’s acquisition of industry specialists including: Orgadata, BM Group, Klaes and 3E, bringing together decades of expertise across aluminium, PVC and timber applications.

These businesses are now said to form one of the industry’s broadest software portfolios for window, door, conservatory and façade manufacturers, while maintaining the specialist knowledge and close customer relationships that made them successful in the first place.

While the solutions address different needs, they are all built around the day-to-day realities of window, door, conservatory and façade manufacturing.

At the Forterro stand, visitors will be able to discuss practical topics including:

• ERP modernisation and business process optimisation
• Multi-site operations and organisational visibility
• Faster estimating and quotation processes
• Engineering and production preparation
• Real-time production transparency
• CNC integration and automation
• Cloud-based technologies and future digitalisation strategies

Forterro will also host a BATIMAT Masterclass exploring why integrated processes are becoming a competitive advantage for window, door, conservatory and façade manufacturers.

Taking place on Thursday, 1 October, from 10:00 to 10:30 in Agora 4, Hall 4, the session will examine how labour shortages, increasing complexity and evolving customer expectations are driving demand for better-connected processes, data and technologies across the value chain.

The conversations at Batimat are reportedly unlikely to stop at today’s operational challenges.

Many manufacturers are also considering how new technologies, changing customer expectations and increasing connectivity will shape their businesses over the coming years.

To support this, Forterro continues to invest in cloud technologies, connected platforms, AI-enabled capabilities and production automation.

These investments are guided by what manufacturers are asking for: software that can grow with their business, connect information more effectively and make better use of the data they already have.

Forterro says most manufacturers do not want to start from scratch. They want to get more from the systems, processes and expertise they already have, while introducing new technologies where they deliver a clear and measurable benefit.

Bernd Hillbrands, Managing Director, Forterro Windows & Doors, said: “Our customers are balancing a lot of different priorities right now, from productivity and automation to workforce challenges and long-term technology decisions.

“They are looking for expertise, proven solutions and a partner that understands where they are today and where they want to go next.

“Batimat marks the first time we are presenting our Windows & Doors portfolio together under the Forterro brand.

“By bringing together the knowledge, experience and technologies of these businesses, we can offer customers both practical support for today’s challenges and a strong foundation for the future.”

Visitors can meet product specialists from across the portfolio, discuss current challenges and explore ways to improve efficiency, increase transparency and strengthen automation across their operations.
