When people talk about sustainable windows and doors, the conversation usually jumps straight to energy ratings. But a product's sustainability starts long before it's installed.

It starts with the metal itself.

Our aluminium comes from Tiwai Point, powered predominantly by hydro electricity. Our extrusion partner INEX recycled 2,765 tonnes of scrap aluminium in 2025. And our powder coating line recovers unused powder and recycles process water.

We're working towards Environmental Product Declarations to put the verified numbers behind it. But the sourcing choices and investments? They've been years in the making.

At FMI Building Innovation, Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) isn’t a buzzword - it’s how we work. By standardising, modularising, and simplifying, we’re creating products that are faster to make, easier to assemble, and more reliable in use.

From robotic automation to smarter jointing systems, DfMA is helping our fabricators cut errors, save time, and deliver buildings that perform better for people and planet.

As our owner Warren Lewis says:

“We’ve always started with the end in mind. What we didn’t know was that the world calls this DfMA. For us, it’s just common sense.”

In 1968, Peter Lewis started a steel joinery business in Timaru. Three months in, the factory burned to the ground. He rebuilt it from the ashes. And with that rebuild came a mindset -

Grit.

Ingenuity.

The instinct to treat every setback as fuel.

We’ve been evolving ever since. From windows and doors to software, robotics, and automation. From a local factory to an Australasian business with the world in our sights.

We’re still striving. Still asking the same question we’ve asked for more than 50 years -

What’s next?

Our team was proud to be part of , the flagship event hosted by the Australian Glass and Window Association.

It was three days of valuable conversations with fabricators, specifiers, and innovators - exploring the future of glass and windows across Australasia.

This year’s event was especially significant for FMIBI, as we mark our expansion into Australia with new glass processing plants in Victoria and New South Wales. AusFenEx25 provided the perfect platform to share our vision and highlight the benefits of our total system supply model across glass, profiles, hardware, and prefabricated products.

We look forward to continuing these conversations and supporting fabricators and specifiers with the innovation, service, and quality FMIBI is known for.
