What EPAL does
EPAL is a privately held Greek manufacturer founded in 1974 that designs, manufactures, and sells aluminum window and door systems. It serves residential homeowners undertaking new construction, replacement, and renovation projects; hotels and tourist accommodations; and architects, builders, and contractors specifying products for commercial and architectural projects. EPAL operates a manufacturing facility in Sindos, Thessaloniki, maintains showrooms in Athens and Thessaloniki, and uses direct inquiries, sales representatives, and distributors in Greece, the USA, and Canada.
EPAL's portfolio includes 11 window series across casement and sliding systems plus four door lines: Traditional, Classical and Neoclassical, PIVOT, and TopSecur. EPAL HORIZON is identified as the flagship series. The systems use proprietary aluminum profile designs and thermal-break architectures, including a dual cast-and-polyamide thermal break in 18000 Ultra K and a 36mm polyamide-polyurethane thermal break in 20000, with disclosed Uw values down to 0.78 W/m²K. Sliding products include E32, E50, E70, ES38, and Hyline, covering different opening sizes, thermal-performance levels, and acoustic and security requirements.
EPAL reports a vertically integrated production model that includes profile-extrusion design, EPAL-owned extrusion dies, surface treatment, electrostatic powder coating, insulated-glass assembly, and Butyl PIB and thioseal glazing processes. It sources glass from Guardian and Saint-Gobain and hardware from Roto and Hautau, while its glass-sealing processes are certified by the German Institute ift Rosenheim under DIN EN 1279-2 and DIN EN 1279-3. Sales are quote-based rather than publicly priced, installation is bundled with product sales, and replacement and new-construction work can generate repeat projects. North American distribution and a Toronto sales presence extend the channel beyond EPAL's Greek manufacturing base.
