From Family Roots to European Scale

For half a century, Munster Joinery has grown from a family-run workshop in County Cork into one of Europe’s largest window and door manufacturers. Established in 1973, the company now employs more than 1,800 people in Ireland and a further 900 in the UK. Its facilities cover nearly 1.3 million square feet across two sites: an 80-acre production hub in Ballydesmond, Co. Cork, and a 28-acre facility in Wellesbourne, England.

Complete Service for Homeowners

The company’s success rests not only on scale but also on service. Munster Joinery offers a full process from site survey to installation, supported by trained fitting crews and nationwide aftercare. Its product range is broad, encompassing uPVC, aluminium, alu-clad and timber, with bespoke solutions for projects of every size.

The philosophy is simple: to deliver quality, reliability and efficiency. “Quality is at the heart of what we do, and our craftsmen are passionate about their art,” the firm notes. This approach, combined with short lead times and customer-focused service, has helped establish its reputation across Ireland, the UK and further afield.

Sustainability at the Core

In recent years, Munster Joinery has invested heavily in energy efficiency and sustainable manufacturing. Its product portfolio includes Passive House-certified windows and doors with u-values as low as 0.47 W/m²K. The Ballydesmond site operates a combined heat and power plant fuelled by timber offcuts, supplemented by wind turbines, reducing reliance on external energy sources.

Inspiration for Every Home

Alongside scale and sustainability, Munster Joinery emphasises design inspiration. Its catalogues highlight products chosen by customers, ranging from bespoke windows to striking front doors, each tailored to individual needs. The message is clear: every house is different, and what makes it a home is the right blend of performance, design and personal choice.

Looking Ahead

As it marks its 50th anniversary, Munster Joinery remains a family-owned company with ambitions to expand further in international markets. By combining industrial capacity with artisanal values, the firm seeks to remain at the forefront of Europe’s window and door sector – a trusted name for homeowners, architects and developers alike.
