About VitrineAlu

We put the view on display

Vitrine, a glass display case. Alu, aluminium. A display case shows you what sits inside it. We turn that around and put the view on display, out, in, or both, framed in slim aluminium and glass. That is what bringing light into living means.

Fabricated in Haydock, St HelensTrade-only supply from our own workshop.

The name

Vitrine: French for display case. Alu: aluminium.

A vitrine is the glass case that shows off what's inside it. We build the opposite: aluminium and glass that show off what's outside it, the garden from the kitchen, the light reaching the back of a room, an opening doing the work a solid wall used to do.

That's the one idea behind the whole range: slim sightlines and big glass, in aluminium that holds its shape and performance for decades. Heritage and steel-look profiles keep more frame where the character calls for it; sliders and curtain walling take most of it away. Same principle either way, less frame the customer notices, more of the view they came for.

What drives us

Our vision

To be the aluminium fabricator the North West's trade trusts to turn any opening into a view worth framing, the name behind the region's brightest homes and buildings.

Our mission

To provide drawing-led aluminium product-route support for trade projects across the North West, so installers, builders and specifiers can request current technical evidence for the actual opening before relying on a claim.

What we stand for

Five things we do not bend on

Light first

Every choice serves the view and the light it lets in.

Made to the drawing

Trade, never over the trade

We supply, you fit. We never compete with the people we serve.

Evidence before reliance

Made to last

Aluminium is built for the long run

Lifecycle, recycled-content and operational-performance claims depend on the material, product route, glass, installation and project context. Ask for current supporting information before using a sustainability or performance claim in a project decision.

For the figures behind that, see the guides to aluminium U-values and how a thermal break works.
