In a landmark meeting of industry visionaries, executives from Germany’s century-old window control systems brand WINKHAUS visited the headquarters of Paiya Windows and Doors, China’s leading high-end aluminum system doors and windows manufacturer. The delegation included Wehrspann Lars (Global President of the Aluminum Division), Slabbekoorn Andries Johannes (Product Director), Puzanow Adam Alexander (President of the Asia-Pacific Region), Song Kun (General Manager of China), Yin Haixin (Assistant General Manager), and Zhang Bo (Technical Director). They were warmly welcomed by Paiya Chairman Li Junhong, General Manager Yi Shaoguang, and Brand Director Li Junxin.
The visit marked a high-level dialogue on cutting-edge technologies, market trends, and strategic direction in the global windows and doors sector. It also underscored the mutual commitment to innovation and quality between two industry leaders. Paiya believes that its strategic synergy with WINKHAUS will not only elevate the consumer experience but also drive the industry toward higher levels of collaboration, co-creation, and sustainable growth.
A Shared Legacy of Excellence
Founded in 1854, WINKHAUS has long been recognized as a global pioneer in window and door hardware systems. Its precision-engineered products have been integrated into iconic buildings around the world, setting benchmarks for reliability and design.
Paiya Windows and Doors, widely regarded as a benchmark in China’s premium aluminum systems industry, has been recognized for four consecutive years by China Central Television’s “National Brands” program. Known for pioneering the concept of “Deep Comfort” in residential spaces, Paiya is redefining industry standards. The shared values of both brands—pursuit of excellence, continuous innovation, and a commitment to sustainability—form the foundation of this powerful partnership.
The strategic integration of German precision and Chinese innovation signals a new phase in the global windows and doors industry, one driven by technological breakthroughs and elevated by premium craftsmanship.
Redefining the High-End Standard: YADESIGN x Bauhaus x WINKHAUS
This visit also served as a continuation of progress made earlier this year through Paiya’s Deep Comfort Windows & Doors Research Institute, launched in Germany in February 2025. The institute has become a global R&D platform that fuses avant-garde Bauhaus design principles with WINKHAUS’s high-performance hardware and Paiya’s human-centered “Deep Comfort” philosophy.
Wehrspann Lars, Global President of WINKHAUS Aluminum Division, remarked:
“We believe this cross-cultural technological collaboration between Germany and China will redefine comfort, intelligence, and sustainability in residential living, setting new global standards for future living spaces.”
At the core of the collaboration is Paiya’s exclusive YADESIGN series—a product line that blends Eastern architectural aesthetics with Western minimalism. YADESIGN aims to provide a holistic system solution for high-end residences and global architectural designers. WINKHAUS brings to the table world-class hardware technology, while the Bauhaus team injects deep design-thinking into aesthetics and functional integration. Together, they are elevating the technical and artistic depth of YADESIGN, positioning it as a new benchmark in luxury window and door systems.
This co-creation represents a bold new vision for the industry, where “Made in China” meets “Engineered in Germany”, offering discerning global homeowners and architects a superior alternative that merges cultural heritage with leading-edge innovation.
Looking Ahead: Innovation on Display at the 2025 China Building Expo
In July, the newly co-developed YADESIGN product line—born from the collaboration between Paiya and Bauhaus experts—will make its debut at the 2025 China Building Expo in Guangzhou. The line features next-generation designs, advanced engineering, and unmatched performance, promising to deliver a breakthrough user experience in premium residential construction.
Stay tuned as Paiya and WINKHAUS continue to push boundaries, turning high-end living into a global standard.
