Fittings specialist seeks connection on all fronts

Making connections is second nature.

At MACO Beschläge - one of the world market leaders in window, door and lift-slide hardware - everything is about making the connection. Always and everywhere. Between products and partners, but also within the company walls and on the sustainability front. It is a philosophy that will once again be visible and tangible in all its glory at the upcoming edition of HoutPro+ under the heading 'We connect'. On behalf of MACO Benelux, Sales Director Harold Wisselink cordially invites you to visit booth 6340 (hall 6). For a moment of connection and to admire various new automation and smart-home solutions from the group.

Making connections is second nature at MACO Beschläge. And connecting is a broad term within the company. "'We connect' stands not only for our mechanical and electronic hardware, but also for internal and external partnership, our entrepreneurial strength and concern for the world of tomorrow," Wisselink explains the corporate credo of the Austrian provider of innovative system and safety solutions. "Within the frameworks of innovation and sustainability, we are continuously building bridges. Between our advanced products and with our valued raw material suppliers and partners. At the same time, we constantly seek cooperation with our parent company in Austria. It is precisely this approach that enables us to take a global approach and tailor it to the local needs of our customers and users."

Various novelties

Windows that can be opened electronically, information on the opening status of windows and doors, opening doors via a smart app: these are just some examples of what the market is demanding today. MACO will demonstrate such innovations and interactions using various product solutions at HoutPro+ 2022, the powerful reunion of wood processing in the Netherlands.

From November 1 to 4, it is well worth making the trip to the Brabanthallen in 's-Hertogenbosch. Especially when it comes to MACO's new products. Wisselink is already highlighting some of them. "With Move, the result of the cooperation with Hautau, we present a luxurious and practical sliding system that is characterized by exceptionally smooth and flawless operation. The separation of sliding and locking technology makes this system suitable for a variety of users and applications within private and public buildings, such as hotels."

Via the fast and quiet motor lock M-TS, the intelligent combination of mechanics and motorization, MACO opens up a new market segment. As with the A-TS, the tightening pressure of this lock is realized by the three-lock system. However with the M-TS you can also electrically unlock via the two hooks and deadbolt.

"The M-TS stands for security and convenience," Wisselink continues. " For example, operation is possible over the cylinder, wall switch or the MACO App, among others. The integrated lock monitoring can be combined with various smart home systems."

The innovative lock monitors mTronic and eTronic are the ideal partners for window control. On site and on the road. Both combinable systems excel in versatility. "For example, both products can be installed independently of the hardware, even at a later date. In any profile and material. The mTronic also fits into house doors and sliding doors made of plastic and wood," concludes Wisselink.
