India.
Fenesta has won more than 1000 orders from real estate developers and builders, several of them of 10,000
windows and more. No window company In India can match this record.
Fenesta's clients : The Who's Who of India's Developers
Fenesta has won the confidence of India's most renowned developers, among them DLF, Brigade and Prestige.

Knowledge
Made in India. Made for India
Only Fenesta incorporates a set of special weatherproof features that can withstand India's extreme conditions:
onslaughts of ultra violet rays, tropical heat, monsoon storms, high-velocity winds and high humidity levels.
European and Chinese windows are not made for this environment.

Different design preferences


Since its arrival in 2003, Fenesta has tracked regional preferences. In the south, conventional slider
and casement windowsare the most popular; in the west, large sliders with monsoon proof features are in big
demand; in the north, where styling is the main consideration, combinations of fixed, casement and sliding
windows are the most wanted.

Customization
Unlike Europe and the US, India has yet to standardize window sizes. They vary from project to project and
home to home. To cope with this complexity and ensure customization, Fenesta has in place teams of surveyors
in each town of each region who measure each aperture; manufacturing units close to each market; and teams
of trained installers at each location.
Replacing windows in individual homes without inconveniencing families requires special skills which Fenesta
has mastered through its proprietary Fenesta Retail Management System (FRMS).

Quality Tested
Certified by independent authorities
Tested by specialists, Fenesta sets the standard in weather resistance, surface finish, stress, dimensional
tolerances, UV stability, weld strength, wind load, air filtration, water penetration and ease of operation. BSI
(UK) has certified that Fenesta conforms to European standard 12608 with respect to accelerated weather
testing. Fenesta also conforms to BS7413 and BS 7412.
The sound and thermal insulation properties have been certified by IIT, Rourkee.

No short cuts in manufacture


While others use mechanical joints, every Fenesta window is fusion-welded. While others fix the glass at the
site, the glass on each Fenesta window is factory fitted. Fenesta follows international guidelines of window
manufacture at every stage. Even the packaging has special damage-proof features.

Hardware from the world's leading manufacturers


Every little detail has a quality stamp. Even the hardware, imported from Europe, is tested for 20,000 cycles.

Tested for Indian conditions


The Fenesta UPVC profile has been approved by BSI, UK on several performance parameters in extreme
weather conditions. Independent authorities have certified Fenesta windows for structural strength and sound
insulation. Windows are tested for wind load and monsoon resistance before they leave the factory.
Environment, health & safety
The extrusion plant at Kota is the recipient of the British Sword of Honour for its unblemished safety record.
All Fenesta factories are ISO 9000, 14000 and 18000 certified

Capability to execute large orders


Fenesta has executed as many as 20 orders of 10,000 windows and above, the largest of 70,000 windows a
national record. On the strength of its well-oiled infrastructure, Fenesta has won the trust of prominent
builders and several repeat orders from them.

The Proprietary Project Management Systems: A unique feature


A delay of even a single day can set you back by lakhs of of rupees. A proprietary project management system
(FPMS) keeps regular track of construction to align windows installation in real time to prevent any delays.

Separate service systems for individual homes


Individual homes need personalised attention to ensure minimum inconvenience to familty members. FRMS
(Fenesta Retail Management System) ensures old windows are replaced with new ones in a painless transition.
Team of experts Fenesta has specialists in window engineering, production, installation, sales and services.
Installation experts ensure measurement accuracy at the time of site surveys and proper use of anchor fasteners
and silicone, safe work practices and storage,quality checks and site hygiene at the time of installation. There
are no gaps between promise and delivery.

Design - Fenesta offers custom window & door designs


Fenesta has a well qualified Design and Technical team that has its pulse on the latest consumer trends, market
feedback and customer needs. It focuses on customer needs in every city and designs products accordingly. The
expertise of the Design team helps Fenesta to design custom doors and custom windows that are perfect for the
unique Indian requirements. These include design preferences, climatic conditions and tastes. Given below are
two examples of the innovative custom doors and windows that Fenesta has designed over the years.
Growing trend of high rises was captured by Fenesta very early in 2007 and the products were designed
likewise. Wind pressure in high rises multiplies many times and normal window do not match up. Fenesta has
designed stronger windowsthat can stand up to wind loads of 245 km per hour.
Monsoon prone areas like the coastal areas along the western and eastern coasts face torrential rains. Fenesta
has recognized this special need and custom designed monsoon proof windows for India which feature a
special drainage mechanism that ensures no rain seeps in.

End to End Service


Fenesta controls the entire cycle, from extrusion to installation
Fenesta is the only company in the world that controls the entire supply chain and thus ensures quality at every
step. The various steps in the chain include:
Blending: Supplies of PVC come from its very own plant in Kota. The tropical blend is prepared by adding
various additives to make it withstand extreme weather conditions
Extrusion: : The state of the art extrusion plant feeds fabrication facilities across the country with window and
door profiles.
Design: Fenesta's design team suggests appropriate window designs keeping in mind wind load, insulation and
aesthetics.
Site Survey: Trained survey team measure each opening to ensure correct fabrication.
Manufacturing: Five factories located across India, close to major markets produce customized window and
door designsas per client requirements.
Installation: Trained teams ensure timely installation as per client norms.
Thereafter, skilled teams control every subsequent function: Blending, extrusion, design, survey, manufacture,
quality practices, project management, delivery, installation and post sales service.

Window Installation
Fenesta is a modern product and it follows modern construction practices. Correct window installation is
critical to ensure optimum performance. A poorly installed window can undo product advantages.

No more carpenters in your home


Carpenters make a mess in your home as they go about nailing together window frames. Aluminum frames are
no better. Most of them are crudely welded and poorly installed.

Team of experts
Window installation experts ensure measurement accuracy at the time of site surveys and proper use of anchor
fasteners and silicone, safe work practices and storage, quality checks and site hygiene at the time of
installation. There are no gaps between promise and delivery.

Window Installation: The Fenesta Way


Old civil practices with wooden windows require windows frames to be installed in the beginning or during the
civil work. However, in the case of Fenesta, the complete window comes as one unit and is fitted after all civil
work is over.
The correct stage for Fenesta window installation is just before the last coat of paint. The site should be clear of
unnecessary material like cement, scaffolding to avoid damage to the windows.

The steps involved in Fenesta's installation are as follows:

The windows are fixed in each aperture with anchor fasteners


Gaps between the masonry and the frame are filled with high grade silicone and an acrylic sealant
Each window is tested and certified for operation
Each window is cleaned thoroughly
The debris is cleared and the site restored to its original state

Data Analysis
Our survey of Architects/Builders indicates the following

3 broad categories of construction/building Housing exists namely,

Group Housing
Commercial
Personal Residential.
In Group Housing category, uPVC windows are preferred along with other
material windows like wooden, aluminum, steel windows, PVC windows.
In latter two categories, 90% preference is given to wooden windows and
doors by both primary and secondary audience.
Price comes out to be the most decisive factor for choosing the material for
the windows.
It is usually observed in the market that uPVC is perceived as costlier
product than its counterparts. Market perception is that it is seen 2-3 times
more costly product than aluminum and wood.
70% - 80% architect have the same opinion about the uPVC window
costing.
In cities like Gurgoan, Noida uPVC windows are being installed on a
maximum scale. Moreover, Fenesta brand is mostly preferred among the
uPVC windows.
In group Housing category, the Project cost and the market factor influence
the material use in construction or interiors. That is why, when there is less
margin per flat or house for a builder he prefers to install windows with a
low price material say, aluminum, or iron.
What surf excel is for washing powder, Fenesta is for uPVC.
Already well established in the European markets, where uPVC caught on
with improved building codes and green concerns, there is now a rise in
acceptability in the 'newer' markets like India.

Our interviews with Fenestas potential key customers indicate the following
In group housing category, customer awareness for uPVC windows is
nearly 50%.
In commercial and personal residential category, customer awareness for
uPVC product is nearly 1%.
Architects are the soul drivers and counselors when it comes to decision,
which material is need to be use for windows.

Misconception among potential customers for benefits of uPVC over


aluminum or wood. A prospective buyer needs to be convinced of the longterm benefits, cost recovery over time.
Windows and doors as a category is very-very low interest category.

Operational Strategy
I.

II.

III.

There are 4 major components in any doors & windows...i.e. uPVC Profile,
reinforcement, fittings & glass type. So price varies with change of components
type. Fenesta can look forward for flexibility in its operations by supplying only
uPVC profiles to dealers across India. This in turn will help to cut operation cost
and build strong brand image. Moreover, it would lead to better customer
perceived value.
The market is changing, getting tougher, and the competition is getting better.
In addition to existing local competitors, there are new competitors and the
rising national uPVC fabricators. The market demand has changed from a
mainly retail one to a fragmented market with new build and other high growth
and demanding sectors. Maintaining excellence is only a ticket to the game.
Need for a check in pricing strategy from Fenesta showrooms and dealers to
customers. A proper control measure and policies can help to change the
perception of Fenesta uPVC window in the market esp. to those
customers who have lack of awareness and who are price conscious.

Augmented reality
Augmented reality is tough to explain, but it does exactly what its name implies. The example that most people
can relate to is its use in televised sports, where computer-generated graphics provide insight into the action.
The basic idea of augmented reality is to superimpose graphics (like the first down yard line for your football
fans), audio and other sensory enhancements over a real-world environment in real time. Augmented reality
works by overlaying virtual information onto the real world to augment (or addinsights) to the experience. In
recent years, other great examples of augmented reality have surfaced, including in-store packaging
applications, engineering manuals, educational books and games.

This technology brings an amazing dimension to print communication. A customer points her smartphone
(enabled with an augmented reality app or reader) at a code embedded in a print piece to activate additional
content. This content could be a pop-up window of additional information, a 3D projection of an image or
an enhanced view using the phones camera.

Fig: The Virtuality Continuum: Augmentation Marketing

Mobile AR Market split in major Revenue streams:

Need of Augmentation Reality for Fenesta


1) Create integrated media experiences
The rapid adoption of smart phones has forever changed the way that your customers consume media.
The fact that the majority of your customers have this new technology within arms reach at all times is
a great opportunity to create an integrated experience. Use it to make your printed material come to life
and engage your audience. If you see every brand touch point as an opportunity to engage digitally,
everything you do will become interactive.
2) Customers value utility
The way that customers perceive value is changing. Consumer data is valuable and your customers
know it. To manage this evolving world todays marketers need to think beyond the traditional
customer value propositions of offers and discounts. Digital experiences give you the opportunity to
create utility, create an experience that is genuinely useful.
3) Look for opportunities to surprise and delight
If we can help our customers see our brand in a new and exciting way then even the most mundane of
marketing touch-points can take on a new life. The great thing about weaving technology into the
overall customer experience is that it gives us a whole new set of tools to draw from and countless
ways to creatively deliver a message.

Fenesta manufactures uPVC windows that offer competitive advantage over its substitute products like
wooden windows and Aluminum windows. We have a niche target segment and that is why it is important to
create a differentiation over our competitors by creating a trust, an ease of experiencing through changing the
perception how Window which is seen more as functional, hardware product to an important part of a home
while renovation or construction. Other challenges include:

Home owners are

Architects, Interior
Designers and
Builders

Fig: Major challenges Fenesta faces in todays scenario

How Augmentation Reality works for Fenesta

The Fenesta smartphone application will be free, and also there would be no in-application payments
mechanism in this version, the application will be designed to increase sales.

Consumers can use the augmented reality feature to try out how uPVC windows look on their walls
before buying.

The application also serves as a branding tool that drives consumers into Fenesta studios or contact
nearby sales executive.

The expected estimation is hundreds of thousands of downloads of this app in only few months
primarily because of word of mouth, blogs and media that will echo the story.

The target demographic of the app is the same as Fenestas in general but we are focusing to target mass
in the app as it can create a much needed buzz to boost sales.

Mobile loyalty program to build a database of consumers interested in receiving discounts from the
sales executive can help Fenesta to assist those customers. Here, focus should be on individual home
builders.

The text-to-enter loyalty program is a means for Fenesta would be in-built in this application to start a
dialogue with interested consumers.

Achievements through AR App for Fenesta


Quote by Alex Murphy, president and business head, Fenesta Building Systems at the
launch of Fenesta studio, Noida's TGIP.
Alex Murphy, said, "When you buy a car, you go for a test drive, touch it, feel it and
then you decide whether it's the one for you or not. But, when it comes to building a
home, we don't have an option to do the same. So, in order to make the whole
visualizing experience a reality, we've opened the studio. A right window in the right
place can transform homes. We can help you out if you like a particular door or
window in our studio but don't know how it will look in your house. You can bring a
picture of your house and we will give a presentation on how it will fit into the house. It
gives a good idea of customization of designs and colors and you can pick unique
design concepts."
Through Fenesta AR smartphone Application, it would be possible to create a
differentiation in the market.
It will help to build Brand FENESTA.

By eliminating burden of customers to bring pictures of their homes to the


studios. As today biggest dilemma is Windows is being considered as a
functional, hardware product and here our priority is to tackle the target
segment psychographics.
Good idea of customization can be assisted better if customers at their home can
access application and see by themselves how uPVC windows with new colors
and modern- tech look at their walls. This would give them a fair idea that unlike
wooden windows, uPVC windows can be installed even after 2nd coating of the
wall paint.
It would help to create an awareness and interest among Home owners and they
would take initiative themselves by asking about the Fenesta uPVC products to
their respective Architects.

Minimalistic Marketing
This idea of minimalism is transcending every facet of our lives today. Art, writing, websites, emails,
marketing, advertising, packaging, designs, aesthetics, social media, promotions and lifestyle
everyone is jumping onboard with this notion. Minimalism serves the need of an audience which is
tired of opulence, ostentation and being overwhelmed. It lets them escape clutter and keep things
simple.

Marketing as we all know is the art of conveying value to the customer and imprinting it in their
minds. It survives on understanding and manipulation of the psyche of the prospective customers.

Looking at the caliber of minimalism to ring bells in customers brains, marketers have bought in this
idea big time.
