What Rollfix Systeme AG does

Rollfix Systeme AG is a privately held, family-owned Swiss manufacturer of custom-made insect protection screening systems, headquartered and produced at a 5,000 m² facility in Sins, Canton Aargau. Founded in 1998 by Josef Windhager starting with two employees on 300 m², the company has expanded progressively across multiple sites and now operates with a seasonal workforce of approximately 60 employees as of 2022, having produced over one million custom insect screens cumulatively. It is currently managed by the second generation of the Windhager family, with Dominic Windhager as CEO.

The product portfolio covers window screens (Spannrahmen in ClipFix and Vario variants, Fensterrollo and motorized Elektrorollo), door screens (Tür Plissee Slim/Max, Schiebetür, Drehtür Slim/Max, Pendeltür, Türrollo Uno/Comfort/Duo), light well covers, and a comprehensive mesh portfolio including AntiPoll pollen mesh, Petscreen, UltraView/BetterView/OptiView visibility meshes, aluminum, and V2A stainless steel for food industry use. The core proprietary technology is the ClipFix snap-frame mechanism, first patented in 2003 and continuously improved — most recently in January 2026 with a thinner 0.5-0.6 mm flange and new drainage function. An in-house powder coating line operational since 2014 enables custom RAL, NCS, and IGP color matching, and a facility photovoltaic installation (since 2019) provides high energy self-sufficiency.

Rollfix distributes exclusively through a Swiss Fachpartner specialist dealer network of window builders, blind/stored installers, carpenters, and dedicated insect protection professionals. These partners handle on-site measurement, sale, and installation. The company does not sell directly to consumers; its primary commercial relationships are with these B2B channel partners and the homeowner end market they serve. Pricing is quote-based, revenue is generated through one-time sales of custom-fabricated units, and the company is a member of the FFF (Swiss Specialist Association for Windows and Facades). No external investors, parent companies, or international expansion have been disclosed.
