Schon Doorways Expands to 180+ Indian Cities, Enters Global Construction Market

Schon Doorways, one of India’s leading manufacturers of premium aluminium doors and windows category, has expanded its domestic footprint to over 180+ cities including Hyderabad, Chennai, Bangalore, Visakhapatnam, Pune and other cities. The brand has begun with exports to key global markets including Southeast Asia and the Middle East. Early shipments have already been reaching UAE, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, and Malaysia. This initiative reiterates the brand’s commitment to further emerging as a global player in sustainable building materials.

With India evolving from an import-based to a manufacturing-based economy, the aluminium windows and doors segment is estimated to reach USD 1.45 billion by 2029. The market size indicates significant demand for smart, sustainable, and design-based solutions. Schon Doorways’ strategic expansion comes at a time when the Government of India has reiterated its vision to increase the share of manufacturing in GDP from 12% to 23% over the next two decades, and recorded a $29.79 billion FDI inflow into manufacturing in H1 FY2024–25, as per DPIIT.

Schon Doorways operates an 80,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art manufacturing plant in Bangalore with monthly production capacity of 25,000–30,000 sq. ft. of aluminium systems. As per international green norms, 30% of the aluminium utilized is recycled, and the products adhere to international certifications such as LEED, IGBC, GRIHA, and BREEAM. Schon Doorways has created proprietary in-house hardware for magnetic sealing and smart locking and has filed a patent for its corner slider system. The company has made significant investments in technology, targeting 60% digitisation by 2027, through CNC automation, IoT-enabled operations, and AI-powered quality control.

Commenting on this development, Mr. Ajay Balakrishna, Founder & CEO at Schon Doorways said, "The need for aluminium fenestration solutions striking a perfect balance between design, durability, and sustainability is gaining momentum across markets. Our growth is a direct response to that need where we aim to position  Indian engineering at the forefront of a worldwide movement towards sustainable and  high-performance architecture”.

This global expansion of the company also reiterates its 'Make in India' and 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' initiatives producing top-notch products in India while demonstrating Indigenous innovation globally. The company's initiative will also bolster employment generation, particularly in automated, sustainable, and design-led manufacturing.

Schon Doorways' expansion aligns with broader trends in India's manufacturing sector and growing demand for sustainable building materials. With its ongoing focus on technology, design, and global outreach, the company continues to strengthen its position in both domestic and international markets.
