In a bold move to strengthen its position in Sweden’s window manufacturing industry, Inwido, the Nordic region’s leading supplier of windows and doors, has announced an investment of just over SEK 100 million in Elitfönster’s production facilities in Vetlanda. The investment, the largest ever for Elitfönster, will enable the consolidation of production currently taking place in two factories into one, allowing for increased capacity, improved profitability, and a more sustainable production process.
Consolidating Production for Increased Capacity and Sustainability
Elitfönster, which is Inwido’s largest business unit, operates four production facilities, two in Vetlanda and two in Lenhovda. The investment will consolidate production in Vetlanda into one factory, increasing capacity while reducing the climate footprint and energy use of the company. This future-proofing of the factory will also allow for more time for innovation and product development, further strengthening Elitfönster’s position in the market.

We turn 100 years old next year, and this will undoubtedly be a major milestone in our history,” says Jonas Hernborg, MD of Elitfönster.
