A Legacy of Innovation & Quality Since 1926
For nearly a century, NorDan has been at the forefront of window and door innovation, combining Scandinavian craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology.
We have now been active in the UK construction industry for almost 40 years. Working closely with our production factories we supply high performance products to a range of markets including Affordable Housing, Private Rental Sector, Private House Building market & end-user Residential.
The greatest challenge in the history of humanity. There is a world to save. Which means that each and every one of us must rethink, reprogram ourselves and change the way that we usually do things. The construction industry in the UK alone makes up 40 percent of the total CO2 emission numbers. The king of wasteful thinking, really.
By 2030 we must reduce the CO2 footprint from 1000 kg/ m2 down to 300 kg/m2 to reach a carbon neutral target. That's steep, but not impossible. And above all, necessary. At NorDan we are happy to be the forerunners in the transition to a sustainable construction industry. Of course, we try to lead by example - we've done if for nearly 100 years.
An ordinary NorDan window frame is made from more than 90% timber, a natural carbon sink in itself. With timber at the core, our embodied carbon figures are among the lowest industry. With embodied carbon emissions from NorDan less than half compared to aluminium or uPVC. Even against other composite materials in the market, there is no comparison.
Since the founding in 1926 both the company and larger society has gone through significant changes, but one thing remains the same: NorDan is a family owned company, and is run by the same basic values as when founded.
The group’s head office is in Moi in Norway, the exact same place the company was founded almost 100 years ago. NorDan is present in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, United Kingdom, Ireland, Poland and Lithuania. Today NorDan consists of 12 factories, approx 30 project management offices and more than 2200 employees.
We are a network of offices, factories and competence centres all interconnected by thousands of employees who share our common values towards a sustainable future.
NorDan’s products are Aluminium clad, pre-treated and powder coated in one of Europe’s most modern facilities, resulting in a product made to withstand the harshest marine conditions.
Our aluminium clad products also result in a virtually maintenance-free product, whilst timber provides a warm and organic aesthetic on the inside. You can essentially ‘fit it and forget it’ with minimal upkeep, reducing the ongoing maintenance costs of the building.
Many affordable or social housing developments are now required to have an energy-efficient design. While energy-efficient windows, doors and other systems are estimated by some developers to cost 3 to 5% more upfront, they create reduced operating costs in the long term, offsetting that initial expense.
We design our products in Norway to withstand the roughest weather conditions. This means as standard, our products achieve U-values of 1.2 on double glazed units. U-values as low as 0.7 can be achieved through triple glazed units, making it a valuable contribution towards creating passive homes as well.
That is why we build our solid doors and windows out of real, robust materials. Security is paramount at NorDan. For NorDan safety is much more than just keeping intruders out, it is equally important is to ensure smart solutions that make you safe inside. Child safety restrictors prevent small children from opening the window accidentally, and solid constructions and fittings can withstand heavy loads. Everything is included in all our products.
Ever since our first window was crafted in 1926 NorDan has focused on quality. Our production method is a fusion of modern technology and traditional craftsman skills, which help us ensure that we deliver a high-quality product. Natural materials provide genuine quality. With large state-of-the-art factories able to produce over 3,500 windows and doors per day, a workforce of well over 2,200 and computer controlled production lines, NorDan manufactures in volumes sufficient to supply the largest projects whilst remaining competitive. The advanced design and construction of NorDan’s windows and doors guarantees high performance, low maintenance and durability – with a 60 year lift expectancy. All products are manufactured from quality Nordic pine from well managed sustainable forests.
