HWL Windows, a Leeds-based trade fabricator, attributes its operational efficiency to using Window Designer software from Cyncly for all product designs. By consolidating design processing into one window design program, HWL has significantly streamlined its manufacturing processes across multiple systems and profile materials, resulting in enhanced efficiency and profitability.

Requirement

Initially, HWL faced inefficiencies due to using different fenestration software for processing aluminium products and other materials.

This led to disparate processes within the factory, causing operational challenges and inefficiencies.

Solution

HWL adopted Window Designer software from First Degree Systems as a unified solution for all product designs.

This shift eliminated the need for multiple window and door software systems, ensuring consistent and efficient processes across all materials.

The recent transition to a subscription model further enhanced functionality with features like Stock Assistant and Barcode Tracking.

Benefici
