What aluplex sl does

Aluplex SL is a privately held Spanish manufacturer of aluminum shutter components, founded in 1994 and headquartered in Chiva, Valencia. The company specializes in extruded aluminum products for the window and building construction industry, with its core range covering aluminum shutter slats/blades (persianas/lamas) in twelve or more profiles (37C, 39C, 40S, 40TR, 43C, 45M, 45S, 45TN, 45RS, 50TN, 55C, 77), aluminum drawer boxes for shutters (45°, 90°, and 4-part configurations, nominal thickness 0.82mm to 1.20mm), PVC drawer boxes (155 and 185 mm), roll-up and plissé mosquito screens, aluminum pergolas, aluminum ceiling systems, extrusion profiles, and accessories. The technical backbone is conventional aluminum extrusion and fabrication with proprietary product specifications across a broad SKU range.

The company operates a product-led, B2B distribution model targeting wholesale and retail suppliers of building components in Spain and, more recently, French-speaking markets. Sales are transacted through a regional delegation and commercial representative network with formal ordering via fax or email, supported by a multilingual website (Spanish, French, English) that functions as a digital catalog with downloadable technical sheets, quote requests, and personalized phone consultation. Revenue is generated through one-time unit sales with tiered pricing tied to dimensions, material, and configuration, plus minimum order and shipping fees that indicate small-average-order volume. No revenue is publicly disclosed.

The company has no disclosed parent, subsidiaries, equity investors, or management team, and operates as a single-site business from its Chiva facility. In 2019, Aluplex received €216,185 in co-financing from CDTI and FEDER (Project IDI-20190576, "ALUMODPRO") to modernize its production process through automation and optimization of short-series assembly lines. There is no evidence of AI, software, or digital platform capabilities; the business is a traditional industrial manufacturer serving the Iberian and broader European fenestration supply chain.

Direct peers

• Persax: Spanish manufacturer of aluminum and PVC shutter systems, including monoblock, roller, and security shutters. Closely comparable to Aluplex as a domestic Spanish shutter specialist with overlapping lamas/cajones product lines and installer distribution.
• Giménez Ganga: Spanish manufacturer of roller shutters, blinds, and mosquito screens using aluminum and PVC. Direct overlap with Aluplex in lamas, cajones, and mosquiteras categories, sharing the Spanish residential fenestration channel.
• Bandalux: Spanish specialist in technical blinds, roller shutters, and architectural sun-protection systems. Comparable to Aluplex in serving installers and builders with aluminum-based shutter components across Iberia and select export markets.

Regional players

• Soprofen: French leader in roller shutters, garage doors, and insect screens for residential and commercial buildings. Comparable in product mix to Aluplex but focused on the French market — relevant as Aluplex's documented French export push targets this competitor's home turf.
• Griesser AG: Swiss manufacturer of external solar protection and aluminum roller shutters across Switzerland, France, Germany, and Austria. Comparable to Aluplex in aluminum extrusion-based shutter offerings but with broader European scale and motorized system focus.

Broad incumbents

• Hunter Douglas: Global leader in window coverings, including roller shutters and aluminum-based blinds. While serving a much wider product portfolio and global footprint, Hunter Douglas competes head-on in the aluminum shutter component space relevant to Aluplex.
• Heroal: German manufacturer of aluminum window, door, roller shutter, and sliding systems, including extruded profiles and components. Comparable in upstream extrusion capability and component supply model relevant to Aluplex.
• Reynaers Aluminium: Belgian manufacturer of aluminum solutions for windows, doors, sliding systems, and roller shutters. Comparable in extruded aluminum component manufacturing targeted at European fenestration markets.
• Aluprof S.A. Polish manufacturer of aluminum systems for windows, doors, facades, and roller shutters. Comparable in aluminum extrusion and shutter-component supply for European construction, though at substantially larger scale than Aluplex.
• Cortizo: Spanish manufacturer of aluminum profiles for architectural and industrial applications, including roller shutter systems. Comparable as a Spanish-headquartered aluminum extrusion and fenestration component supplier sharing Aluplex's home geography.
