With more than 20 years of tradition. The family-run company AJM oknavrata-senčila d.o.o. from Kozjak nad Pesnico near Maribor recorded since its establishment in 1990 continuous growth of the production volume and products, the number of markets and employees. With systematic work, honest relationship with our customers, employees and business partners and by investing in the development today we are not only one of the leading manufacturers of PVC, aluminum and wooden builders` joinery products in Slovenia, but we are setting new trends in this field. We are not
only top-quality manufacturers, but also experts in builders’ joinery installation, which we perform in line with the latest standards. A good reputation can get you far... but a superior reputation can get you even further. After becoming known and tested by the Slovenian market, the quality of the company became increasingly recognisable to the outside world, in the European Union markets and worldwide. Our products are wellestablished in Austria, Italy, Germany and Croatia and our land and Scandinavia. In addition, we are becoming recognisable, in France and many other countries in Europe and worldwide. Over the years, the company’s primary activity, the production of PVC windows, has grown into an extensive range of PVC and ALU builders’ joinery products, such as windows, doors, blinds,
winter garden systems and jutting roofs. The production range is supplemented by a huge selection of blinds, shelves, mosquito screens and cleaning and maintenance sets for our products, as well as ventilation and advanced security systems. We also perform investment construction and energy renovation of buildings (windows, doors, facades). In the construction we see a completion of our builders` joinery products offer as a new business opportunity and a filling of a gap that arose in the Slovenian construction branch due reducing and closing of construction companies. Today, as we stand in the first line hand in hand with the leading PVC, ALU and wooden builders’ joinery providers in Slovenia and this part of Europe, we are guiding our development towards energy-efficient and environmentally friendly builders’ joinery.
The first in the business ... Production by means of cutting-edge technology Computer-supported paperless production with state-of-the-art machinery and a technique of gluing the glass into the wing enables us to produce up to 670 windows in one work shift per day.
We have found excellent solutions to the latest trends in building, especially in relation to passive and low-energy building.

For the above-referenced way of building and living, we have developed a special window profile, the characteristics of which fully meet the requirements set forth for passive and low-energy building. It provides triple protection, namely thermal, sounds and enables annual savings of up to 36%. We are also developing a special builders’ joinery installation in line with the RAL standard, which stands as the most perfected method of installing builders’ joinery at the present.
... the first in terms of quality. The company was awarded the Quality Certificate for Building, the ISO 9001 standard and the Green Dot. The above-referenced certificates confirm that our products developed in our own development department and together with the German Aluplast profile manufacturer are of the highest quality, that they are environmentally friendly in all stages of their life span and that the solutions we provide to our customers in the field of energy efficiency are optimum.

A family is a value... Nurturing the tradition of a family-run company. We are continuously striving to bring the family and professional lives of our employees in a state of harmonious balance. A family represents the foundation and value behind our operations. Family values such as respect, mutual adjustment, attentiveness and concern for our fellow people are what guides our relationship.

For us, the values of a familyfriendly company are not just a set of measures written on a sheet of a paper, but we actually live them. Therefore, since 2010 we have a permanent certificate of a Familyfriendly company.
Family values are the values we live by
Our company as a great homogenous family
Our work schedule is adapted to a family lifestyle. We socialise with our families at picnics. The company also employs people who are in charge of harmonising the family needs and wishes of our employees. Not one year goes by without having a party to conclude the year with and a Christmas bonus, ever since the company’s establishment. Another such tradition is giving presents to the children of our employees, which are distributed by the first of December’s good men, St. Nicholas.
The company breathes as a great homogenous family. The management’s doors are always open wide and anyone can come in, no matter what time or day of the week it is. The positive effects of the family-friendly policy are reflected in the satisfaction and the well-being of our employees.
Familiy Friendly Enterprise
...and concern for the environment is our obligation. AJM does not live independently, isolated from the environment in which it is situated. We are aware of the trust of people, especially costumers and business partners. We enjoy the trust of more than 27,000 different customers per year and we are delighted with each and every one of experts comprised of sales agents and measurers prepares individual offers for each individual customer.
Respecting people and the environment We are preserving our environment for future generations. Our boiler room operates on wood chips and we have our own biological treatment plant. In our production process, we produce no waste or emissions which could harm the environment, while the PVC cuttings are completely recyclable. Our builders’ joinery is also entirely suitable for recycling. That is way we have the right to use the Green Dot eco symbol, thus following the sustainable development of the environment.
We cannot exist without the support of closer and wider local communities We often help those in need. In line with our family-oriented tradition, we are especially responsive in providing help to families who fall on hand times.
We support sports and recreational activities. We believe in the balance of body and mind and in the saying “A healthy mind in a healthy body”. Therefore, we support recreational activities of our employees and of our domestic environment. We founded the Sports Club AJM, where employees and their family members are active in a variety of recreational activities. We are also preparing recreational cycling events AJM Team Time Ride, where the concept places emphasis on team cooperation and not on competition. We also support young athletes and successful sports professionals on their professional way in skiing, tennis ... We are also member in half-professional or small amateur sports clubs in the local area.

The trust shown by our customers provides us with encouragement for the future. Gaining trust is difficult, and keeping it even more so. We have been preserving the trust of our customers for over 20 years. Over the years, we have acquired extensive experience and have ourselves in many areas. We are proud to be able to boast of many successfully implemented projects.

The road travelled. AJM’s story began in the early 1990s when Janez Ajlec, together with his wife Marija, established the first private undertaking that dealt in the productions of PVC windows in the then Yugoslavian territory. What followed were years of hard and honest work. Today, numerous milestones represent memories of the road travelled.
