Over the last decades, we have expanded our product portfolio with many innovative and customer orientated solutions where we continually push the boundaries of what’s possible in door solutions. Innovation has always been at the core of Novoferm’s success. From advanced operators and control systems such as the NovoPort Speed. This operator breaks from tradition and is the only side mounted operator on the market. Instead of being fixed to the ceiling, it is integrated into the side door track which enables to keep the ceiling clear and eliminates common installation challenges, making it ideal for in between fits and low ceilings. What’s more, since 2022 the range has included the Evolution premium sectional doors for private garages. With a new thermal barrier which sits between the rigid polyurethane foam core of each panel, this helps to reduce heat loss enabling the door to achieve an insulation value of U(p)= 0.46 W/m2K, with thermal optimisation on three sides & double seals. The new optimised thermal door improves thermal insulation by up to 17% when mounted behind the opening. For its 70th anniversary, Novoferm is not only looking back on a successful past, but also with anticipation to the future. The years ahead will be marked by innovative technologies and digitalisation to continue our development that was based on the foundations set 70 years ago.
