GEALAN Window Systems
GEALAN is a European manufacturer of PVC (vinyl) profile systems used to build energy-efficient windows, front doors, and sliding door elements. Rather than selling finished windows directly, GEALAN designs, engineers, and supplies the plastic profiles, surface finishes, and technical systems that window and door manufacturers use to produce their own products. Its offerings target window/door fabricators, architects, planners, and distributors, providing them with a full package of profile systems, planning software, BIM data, training academies, and technical support. Homeowners benefit indirectly through improved thermal insulation, security, durability, and design flexibility (including its GEALAN-acrylcolor® surface finishes). The company stands out for its in-house tool-making, strong sustainability focus, and status as one of Europe's leading PVC window-profile producers, now also operating a U.S. trading branch in Ohio.
Founding Year: 1921 (originally founded by Adam Fickenscher as a fur-processing company; became a PVC profile manufacturer later in the 20th century). Since 2014, GEALAN has been part of the family-owned VEKA AG group.
