In a signal of its anticipated new growth phase, Cube Glass the Cumbernauld-based precision manufacturer has rebranded its corporate identity and launched a new, upgraded website.

Identifying itself as “Scotland’s Aluminium Glass Specialist”, Cube Glass, which undertakes both commercial and domestic projects, was established by founder and managing director, Gary Thorn in 2004 to provide glazing systems to a range of clients, architects, and main contractors.

Since then it has expanded into fabricating, supplying and installing aluminium windows – tilt turn, casement, pivot, sliding, aluminium doors – sliding, bi-folding, automatic, emergency – and curtain walling. Cube Glass also provides fire rated and blast resistant versions where required.

The company sells principally to main contractors, including CCG, Morris & Spottiswood, CM Steel & Design and Morrison Construction, and numbers high-end French residential door specialist Bel’M, industry-recognised specialists such as SCHUCO, Senior Architectural Systems, Metal Technology, Swiss-owned and Portugal-based Panoramah, a manufacturer of bespoke, minimalist window and screen systems, and Glazing Vision rooflights which designs and manufactures innovative architectural glass rooflights, amongst its suppliers.

Mr Thorn said: “As an established family business, we are now entering a new era, with the majority of our workforce also participating in the company’s equity shares.

The rebrand and upgraded website is a marker that we have our eyes firmly fixed on a future which involves winning new, bigger contracts from major UK-based customers, increased capital investment in plant and equipment and an eventual, gradual move towards management ownership of the business.

We are delighted by our rebranded corporate identity and upgraded website, credit for which should go to Derek Bryce and Jonathan Thompson at 25 West Design.”

He added: “In domestic work, where we have a strong pipeline, assisted by our state-of-the-art showroom in Cumbernauld, we have seen a significant move, partly the result of our relationships with smaller, high-end architectural practices, towards slimmer sightlines and doors with bigger panels and more glass, a trend which is being led by our international partners with which we now regularly interact.

At Cube Glass we take care for the environment seriously and utilise 60 solar panels on our roof to generate most of our electricity needs. We take every opportunity to re-cycle and, whenever possible, re-use the materials we work with.

Every offcut or end piece of the glass and aluminium we use in fabrication of our doors and windows is re-cycled locally. We make full use also of the cardboard packaging in which our base materials are delivered by re-using it to pack and ship our own products to customers.”

Cube Glass posted a record turnover of £4.6m in the year to October 2024.
