Sustainability at Salamander

Over more than 100 years of company history, a lot has changed at Salamander – reusing materials and continuously refining our manufacturing processes have remained a consistent part of how we work. We carry this idea forward with realMaterial as well: rather than relying solely on new raw materials, we give high-quality residual materials such as recycled genuine leather a second purpose in window manufacturing.
