Winston Score History

The full picture

Deceuninck is a Belgian company that makes plastic window and door frames, as well as other building products like fencing and decking. Its main product is PVC profiles — the rigid plastic pieces that hold glass in place in windows and doors. The company sells to construction companies, window fabricators, and home improvement businesses across Europe and beyond.

Deceuninck earns money by manufacturing and selling these plastic profiles to customers who then assemble finished windows and doors. It operates in over 90 countries, with a strong presence in Europe, North America, and Turkey, and generates roughly €700–800 million in annual revenue. The company recycles PVC as part of its production process, which helps reduce material costs and serves as a modest competitive differentiator. The main risk is that demand for its products is closely tied to construction activity and renovation spending, both of which slow sharply when interest rates rise or housing markets weaken.
