In the window and door industry, you’re not just moving glass and frames—you’re protecting your reputation with every product you handle. Each piece must be flawless, ready for installation, and delivered without a hitch. This isn’t a job for off-the-shelf tools or patchwork solutions.
Kundel understands the stakes. That’s why we design lifting systems that tackle your toughest challenges head-on.
Fragile Materials = Zero Margin for Error
You know how costly a cracked pane or a scratched frame can be. Mistakes don’t just waste material; they derail schedules and cut into your margins.
At Masonite in Lawrenceville, Georgia, they eliminated those risks with Kundel’s vacuum gripper system. This isn’t just another lifting tool. It’s custom-built for handling delicate glass, letting operators pick and tilt panels with absolute precision—no chips, no scratches, no waste.
You can’t afford errors. With Kundel, you won’t have to.
Injury Risks and Worker Safety: The Hidden Cost
Every year, the window and door industry faces lost time, high turnover, and growing medical costs related to worker injuries. Repetitive strain, improper lifting, and physical fatigue are common—but preventable.
Companies that have implemented ergonomic solutions have seen substantial reductions in injury rates and increased productivity. In fact, one study found that introducing ergonomic controls can improve workplace efficiency by up to 25% while cutting injury rates by as much as 60%.
Kundel’s ergonomic lifting systems do more than just lift materials—they protect your workers and make them more efficient. At JELD-WEN in Stayton, Oregon, a 4-meter ergonomic jib arm with a custom vacuum tool has become an essential part of their production line. With pneumatic tilt and horizontal cup adjustments, operators can move heavy glass panels without straining their bodies. The result: fewer injuries and a more engaged workforce.
Scale Without Sacrificing Precision
You’re working in an environment where scaling your production isn’t just about adding more lines or hiring more staff. It’s about keeping quality high, minimizing waste, and ensuring every part is handled perfectly every time. But outdated equipment often hampers your ability to expand efficiently.
At Therma-Tru Doors in Indiana, our 5-meter ergonomic arm revolutionized their ability to handle large wooden doors. Faster stacking, cleaner movements, fewer mistakes—this is how you grow without breaking stride.
Kundel solutions are built to scale with you, so you can focus on growth—not bottlenecks.
