Aliplast

What Aliplast does

Aliplast nv is a Belgian manufacturer of aluminium building-envelope systems, founded in 1984 and headquartered in a single vertically integrated facility in Lokeren. The company designs and produces aluminium profiles and complete systems for windows, doors, conservatories/verandas, sliding and folding walls, curtain walls, facade cladding, and interior doors, alongside complementary products such as the motorized Somnium pergola, balustrades, mosquito screens, curved windows, and a maintenance product line. Core technical differentiators include in-house fibreglass-reinforced thermal-break technology enabling passive-house-grade U-values (0.8-1.5 W/m²K), a Qualicoat Seaside-certified powder coating operation with 8 million m² of annual capacity supporting a 25-year color guarantee, multi-chamber profile design, and a dedicated bending, folding, punching, and welding department for custom fabrication.

The company operates a channel-driven business model: it does not sell direct to end users, instead routing leads generated through its multi-language website (and quote-request form) to a certified dealer/installer network spanning Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland and Portugal, with a newly added South African channel partner (H Systems). Customer segments are hybrid — homeowners, architects and dealers/installers — with primary monetization coming from one-time system sales to fabricators and installers, complemented by a small recurring tail from branded maintenance products. Aliplast is a core operating subsidiary within Corialis Group, an internationally diversified aluminium group generating approximately €800M in turnover across roughly 2,000 employees; Aliplast contributes approximately 320 of those employees and is not separately revenue-reported. Certifications include ISO 9001/14001/45001/50001, Qualicoat Seaside, Cradle-to-Cradle, BREEAM compatibility, RC2/RC3 burglary resistance, and two consecutive years of Duurzaam Schrijnwerk Gold.
