We are moving towards synthesising the traditional and modern approaches to architectural hardware.

Pamar handles are all about the details, and their product philosophy fits perfectly with our own business philosophy.

We have previously found it difficult to get our products the exposure they deserve overseas.

Architectural Classics is well-placed to help us out with that.

Niall McDonagh, managing director of Architectural Classics, says that the Pamar line represents more than simply another supplier to the company. "We are moving towards synthesising the traditional and modern approaches to architectural hardware."

"Pamar is one of our key, modern suppliers.

"They have some really innovative products, including flip-out cabinet and door handles, and everything in the range is designed by Europe's best.

"Pamar handles are all about the details, and their product philosophy fits perfectly with our own business philosophy."

Pamar's Managing Director, Mr. Marco Redaelli is equally excited about the union with Architectural Classics. "We have previously found it difficult to get our products the exposure they deserve overseas."

"The international market is huge, and really gives us the opportunity to get a return on our investment in the best designers and manufacturing equipment.

"Architectural Classics is well-placed to help us out with that."

The Pamar line adds around 50 new products to the Architectural Classics 1,500-strong contemporary range.
