1) We Are Enala Glass because of our products
We love numbers as much as we love our glass and aluminium products. Because of this, we have developed an in-depth understanding of what makes each scheme feasible. We approach each project by understanding the Client’s expectations. We look at the sector and region in which we are operating and start to form an idea of how to balance financial returns, long-term value and overall impact of the project.
We then draw on our spatial awareness and problem-solving abilities to understand the site and how to get the most out of it. Regardless of the project budget, we have a passion for efficiency, and we hate waste. This is the foundation that we lay on as every project and experience has shown us that once we get this right, we have the freedom to be even more creative.
2) We are innovative
We have a passion for form and space so that we can fill it with glass and aluminium products. We love to explore different aesthetics and whether we are designing progressive or traditional forms, our product offerings are all rooted in user-centric spaces. We love to create bespoke products that are integrated into their context and often find that the magic happens not in the building itself but in the spaces, it creates – for both internal and external applications.
But our innovation extends beyond form and space. Whether we are designing to live, work or play, we like to explore the principles of how people behave and how behaviour is changing. We believe that the bespoke products we create should have the ability not only to adapt to changing behaviour but to inform it for the better….and with glass and aluminium, its always better.
3) We are courageous
When we are commissioned to take part in a project, we approach it with a courageous, adventurous and entrepreneurial spirit. Whether we are designing for innovation or refining a tried and tested formulae, we see courage as core to creating glass and aluminium products of real value.
We combine this with a rigorous and continuous focus on one question: “What is in the best interests of the project?” This is shown clearly in our conduct where we invest enormous amounts of energy to ensure the optimal outcome for the project with equal emphasis on design, quality, cost and programme timelines.
4) We are responsible
We are aware that the work we do has significant financial, environmental and social implications. As industry Leaders in the glass and aluminium space, we are the custodians – not only of the building process but of the end product which will stand for decades and have a material impact on the built environment. We take this responsibility seriously.
5) International project experience
We have worked on projects in the greater countries of Southern Africa and beyond. Our experiences include having worked in some of these countries Malawi, Angola, Zambia, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Lesotho, Swaziland, Botswana, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania, DRC, Kenya and Nigeria. We understand what it means to collaborate across borders, and we are respectful of the unique nuances of each jurisdiction in which we are invited to work. We love the growth that comes from unique perspectives, and thus we use these perspectives to build unique products in glass and aluminium.
6) Leadership
Solving problems in a unique and creative ways and believing that the best solutions are born out of a holistic understanding and integration of client, contextual and end-user interests is what forms the backbone of the Leadership of Enala Glass and Aluminium.
7) The culture of design
We work on a range of projects of varying types, scales, and budgets. We often operate within the tight budgetary and programme constraints. Within these constraints, we believe that good design and good product offering is central to making the most of any given brief.
8) What makes US tick
We believe that with a combination of Critical Thinking, Commitment and Creativity amazing things can be achieved. We pride ourselves in being adaptable, resilient, and responsive. We love collaborating with Clients and other Teams who share our passion for prosperity.
