CiiLOCK success at Fensterbau Frontale 2026

Hot on the heels of a successful exhibition at Polyclose 2026 in January, the CiiLOCK Engineering UK team travelled to Nürnberg, Germany, to make their exhibitor debut at Fensterbau Frontale, one of the fenestration industry’s most recognised international trade fairs.

With 1,022 exhibitors from 117 countries and more than 75,000 visitors, the four-day event reportedly provided an exceptional platform for networking and gave CiiLOCK a valuable opportunity to present its hardware solutions to a truly global audience.

CiiLOCK’s stand featured its flagship products including VOLTA, Mother of all Rollers and the TITAN Bi-Fold system.  Alongside these established solutions, the team introduced two new products currently being brought through to market; a Concealed Hinge and a Lift and Slide system, both of which generated notable interest.

Katie Wilson, Marketing Specialist at CiiLOCK Engineering UK, commented: “The products we had on display attracted significant interest and sparked many valuable conversations throughout the four day event.”

General Manager, Steve Hopwood, added: “This was our first time exhibiting at Fensterbau, and we were extremely pleased with the response to both our stand and our product range. There was much interest in the innovation behind our hardware.”

The highlight of the exhibition was CiiLOCK’s Mother of all Rollers – Naked Series being selected as a finalist in the Fensterbau Innovation Awards 2026.  From 39 international entries, CiiLOCK’s Naked Sliding Door Roller was one of just 13 to be chosen as finalists.

Although the team didn’t take home the top prize on this occasion, the feedback from the judges was overwhelmingly positive. Particular praise was given to the product’s modular design along with its forward thinking approach to closed-loop recycling and sustainability.

CiiLOCK’s Commercial Director, Simon Jaber, reflected: “Being named a finalist in the inaugural Innovation Awards at such a globally recognised exhibition is an achievement in itself. It’s a testament to the innovation our team strives to delivery in every design”.

CiiLOCK left Fensterbau Frontale 2026 with renewed momentum and strengthened international connections. As it continues to expand its product portfolio and global reach, the company remain firmly focused on delivering high performance hardware solutions that are future ready.
