Alumex Group marks 25 years

The Alumex Group marked 25 years of operations in the aluminium profile manufacturing business and felicitated stakeholders recently.

“We are extremely happy to be the market leader with over 50 percent of market share in the country. We have our presence not only in Sri Lanka but export to the Maldives, India and Bangladesh with a few containers going to Australia as well. The company plans to increase its footprint in the global market by improving competitiveness,” Alumex, Managing Director, Rohan Peiris said.

The company has identified the need for industry-related training and conducts in-house training and courses for outsiders. The continuous professional development programs aims at improving knowledge of the industry.

“We will continue to expand and invest in upgrading our technology and products. With plans to become the best production centre in South Asia, Alumex will set up an advanced design centre at Ccity, the one-stop-shop for construction needs,” he said. Alumex has been the strategic sponsor for the Sri Lanka Architects Exhibition for three consecutive years.

Ten of the Group’s best dealers received a paid vacation to Malaysia while the company also distributed aluminium cutting machines, drills and tool boxes to winners of a competition organised by Alumex in October last year.

Alumex which commenced operations in 1988, is a subsidiary of the Hayleys Group. It has since increased production to over 1,200 metric tons catering to the commercial, domestic and manufacturing industries.
