Record year of growth for NorDan UK as turnover soared to £97m in 2024

NorDan UK has announced another record year with a turnover of £96.9 million in 2024, up from £85 million in 2023. Craig Greenwood, who took over the reigns as Managing Director at the start of last year, said the results put the business on track to hit its growth objective of £100 million this year.

NorDan UK is the country’s leading manufacturer of aluminum-clad timber windows and doors, part of the Scandinavian based NorDan Group. In recent years its high-performance windows have become popular with social landlords and affordable housing developers, and it now supplies ten of the twelve G15 social landlords in London.

Announcing the results, Greenwood said that new developments and refurbishment programmes with local authorities and social landlords remained a major target growth area for the company. He said: “Reflecting on my first year as Managing Director of NorDan UK, I’m pleased to report that the journey has been incredibly successful. We’ve achieved a 13% increase in turnover compared to 2023 – a fantastic result that puts us on track to exceed our £100m turnover vision for 2025. I also want to thank the NorDan UK Board and our employees for their contributions, which have driven our success. I look forward to another exciting year ahead as we continue to grow and strengthen our position in the UK market.

“The market does have its challenges, with the impact of new building safety regulations being felt in the number of new build starts, but the longevity and energy efficiency of our windows and doors means that we continue to see demand across the country from large scale developers as well as smaller housebuilders and self-build customers.”

NorDan UK now offers a 30-year “fit and forget” warranty on its flagship StormGuard range, which the company say makes it the perfect solution for new build and refurbishment projects, including social housing. While standard PVC-U windows only last around ten years before needing to be replaced, NorDan UK’s windows last longer and are more energy efficient, keeping homes warmer, more cos-effective to run for tenants and cheaper for landlords to maintain.

NorDan UK is the British arm of the Norwegian founded NorDan Group, a multinational business that turns over £450m from its European subsidiaries, employing over 2,300 people across 12 factories and 32 sales offices.
