Last Chance: Register To See Neo Smart-Slide Tomorrow

If you can get to Southampton tomorrow, fabricator SAJE will be showing the brand neo smart-slide door from aluplast with MACO Move PS hardware…and serving pizza.

Visitors will be able to see live product demonstrations, explore the features and benefits and discuss the opportunities the system presents for their businesses with the SAJE, aluplast and MACO teams.

Refreshments, including the pizzas, will be available throughout the day for all attendees.

About SAJE

SAJE is based near Southampton. The fabricator joined the aluplast programme following FIT Show 2025, adding the system to its existing offering as part of a wider strategy to expand its product portfolio and provide customers with greater choice.

Founded 38 years ago by Kevin Stallard, SAJE has built its reputation on quality, technical expertise and long-term customer relationships. Today, daughter Sarah Stallard plays an active role in the business, while Technical Director Chris Hatch leads the company's product development and technical strategy.

Serving a customer base that is approximately 80% trade and 20% retail, SAJE identified neo smart-slide as an opportunity to offer a distinctive sliding door solution that combines contemporary styling with the practicality of PVC-U. Combined with aludec and woodec foil finishes, the system delivers a premium appearance while remaining accessible to a wider market.

SAJE is the first fabricator in the UK to introduce neo smart-slide into production, positioning the business at the forefront of the system's UK rollout.

MACO hardware

Each neo smart-slide system is fitted with MACO Move PS hardware, delivering reliable operation and helping create a complete solution for fabricators, installers and homeowners.

To support the launch, specialists from both aluplast and MACO visited the SAJE facility to provide hands-on assistance with manufacturing setup, training and production of the first complete units.

While SAJE's production team led the manufacture of the first systems, MACO worked alongside aluplast to support the implementation process.

As with any major product introduction, the launch of neo smart-slide presented challenges along the way. By working collaboratively on site, the teams were able to overcome technical obstacles, share expertise and ensure SAJE had the support needed to successfully introduce the system into production.

Relationships

Sarah Stallard said: "Working alongside aluplast and MACO has been a natural fit. All three businesses share similar values, particularly around relationships, service and long-term partnerships. That's important to us and to our customers. From the beginning, the support we've received from both teams has given us confidence as we bring neo smart-slide to market."

Chris Hatch added: "After seeing neo smart-slide at FIT Show, we knew it was a product we wanted to introduce to our range. It offers a premium sliding door solution that sits apart from traditional PVC-U systems, particularly when combined with the aludec and woodec finishes. Having the technical support of both aluplast and MACO during implementation has helped us bring the system into production successfully."

Paul Hattrick, Business Development Manager, aluplast, said: "The collaboration between our technical teams, MACO and SAJE has been a great example of how strong partnerships can help customers successfully introduce new products."

Other fabricators are welcome

Looking ahead, SAJE aims to establish itself as a leading neo smart-slide specialist, supporting not only its own customers but also other aluplast fabricators looking to introduce the system into their product portfolios.

Businesses interested in attending are encouraged to contact SAJE to reserve their place or scan the QR code.
