From the high-altitude urban density of Nairobi to the high-salinity coastal humid environments of Mombasa and Malindi, engineered fenestration requires structural resilience, thermal isolation, and airtight sealing. Orion Architectural Glass & Window Co., Ltd. delivers certified, precision-engineered casement window solutions designed specifically for East Africa's rigorous urban expansion.
Projects along the Kenyan coastline demand superior surface treatments. Our aluminum extrusions utilize anodized coatings (up to 25μm) and Qualicoat-certified PVDF powder coats, resisting salt spray corrosion up to 3,000 hours under ISO 9227 standards.
Nairobi’s unique day-to-night temperature fluctuations require low U-value insulating glass units (IGUs). Featuring PA66GF25 polyamide thermal break strips, our casement systems drastically reduce internal HVAC loads in mid-to-high-rise commercial towers.
Our architectural fenestration solutions are designed to satisfy and exceed Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) requirements, providing structural wind load resistance engineered up to 3000 Pa for coastal monsoons and high-rise wind loads.
Optimized for high-end residential estates in Kilimani, commercial hubs in Upper Hill, and hospitality developments along the Rift Valley.
Engineered with 6063-T6 aluminum profiles, multi-point locking mechanisms, and double-glazed tempered glass units. Ideal for Nairobi luxury apartments.

Every window frame is wrapped in protective PE film, corner-guarded with high-density EVA foam, and packed inside ISPM-15 compliant fumigated wooden crates to prevent maritime transit vibration damage.
We handle complete COC (Certificate of Conformity) documentation under Kenya's PVoC (Pre-Export Verification of Conformity) program, ensuring smooth customs release at Kilindini Harbour.
Working alongside East African freight logistics partners, we support container trucking directly from Mombasa port to job sites in Nairobi, Nakuru, Eldoret, or Kisumu.
Everything you need to know about custom ordering, shipping schedules, thermal performance ratings, and installation compliance.
Local site fabrication in East Africa often relies on manual profile cutting and basic mechanical screwing, leading to air leaks, frame sagging, and water ingress during heavy rains. Orion manufactures windows in an ISO-certified 24,000 sqm automated factory using double-head CNC machinery, seamless corner welding, injection cleats, and factory-sealed double glazing with argon gas. This results in superior structural stability, high soundproofing (STC up to 45dB), and zero water leakage.
Coastal environments accelerate profile corrosion and hardware breakdown. We solve this by applying architectural-grade fluorocarbon (PVDF) or anodized surface finishes (up to 25μm thickness) that pass 3,000-hour salt spray testing. Furthermore, all operational hardware—including friction stays, hinges, and screws—are manufactured from marine-grade Grade 316 stainless steel to prevent rust.
Our factory manufacturing lead time for standard bulk orders ranges from 20 to 25 days following shop drawing approval. Ocean freight transit from major Chinese ports (such as Ningbo/Shanghai) to Mombasa Port typically takes 22 to 28 days. In total, developers should project approximately 45 to 55 days from final design sign-off to direct jobsite arrival in Kenya.
Yes, all exported fenestration shipments are inspected under the Pre-Export Verification of Conformity (PVoC) process to ensure full alignment with KEBS standards. We provide physical test certificates covering wind pressure resistance (ASTM E330), air permeability (ASTM E283), and water penetration resistance (ASTM E331).
Absolutely. Supported by 620 upstream suppliers and an in-house engineering group of 36 R&D professionals, we offer complete customization. We match any RAL color code in powder coating, wood grain transfers, or anodized finishes, and manufacture every window unit according to your architectural CAD drawings.
