What It Means for You

At Quanex, we’re building a BIGGER organization. This started a few years ago with our internal drive toward the following ideals:

Bold: Be bold in the face of challenges and make impactful decisions.
Innovative: Push product development and ground-breaking ideas.
Growth-Focused: Grow our offerings in, on, and outside homes and businesses.
Global: Dominate the global market with quality products and services.
Engaged: Tapping into the ideas and potential of every person at Quanex.
Responsive: Respond to ever-changing industry demands.

With the integration of the Tyman businesses, we’ve not only doubled in size; we’ve expanded our focus into new areas, with fresh perspectives and approaches. Let’s take a look at the ways we’re changing, both internally and externally, and at what BIGGER means for our organization.

A BIGGER Culture

Our team members are at the heart of Quanex, and with our larger, combined organization, our employees across the globe now have access to new ways to enhance their skills and impact, like:

• Expanded career opportunities across more focus areas and geographies,
• Enhanced training and development programs designed for leadership growth, and
• Expanded benefits and resources to support wellness, flexibility, and long-term security.

“Our people are passionate about what they do,” said Jessica Navascues, who recently joined Quanex as vice president of operations excellence. “You can see it everywhere you look—everyone cares so much. The innovative approach is in our DNA and our culture. We want to continue building an atmosphere of agility, with a customer-centric focus where we can think globally, but act locally.”

Whether you’re an operations employee in one of our plants or you’re a senior leader overseeing people and functions, the opportunities to learn, collaborate, and make an impact have never been greater.

 

A BIGGER Customer Focus

For our customers and prospects in the building products industry and beyond, our growth opens the door to enhanced service, where we can offer:

• Integrated system solutions that span the entire building envelope,
• Access to new technologies and capabilities from adjacent businesses, bringing additional value to every project, and
• Elevated expertise and deeper experience, ready to help solve complex challenges with precision and speed.

For example, our AmesburyTruth team is rolling out the PowerLink Smart Window Conduit to align with emerging smart window technology. PowerLink is a fully articulating, hinged wiring conduit that transfers electrical power or signals between the window sash and frame.

“Unlike traditional systems that rely on battery packs or are limited to stationary glass panels, PowerLink brings hardwired smart tech to casement and awning windows—without sacrificing functionality, aesthetics, or airflow,” said Todd Dubenstein, director of product management for AmesburyTruth.

New products like these are possible with enhanced collaboration and go-to-market planning that comes with a BIGGER focus. In doubling our size, we’ve multiplied our ability to deliver exactly what our customers need, when and where they need it.

A BIGGER Footprint to Serve

With more locations across the globe, we’re serving more market segments in geographies we haven’t reached before, with greater operational capacity to collaborate and serve our customers. That means:

• Faster response times and delivery,
• Localized support and insight, and
• More agile innovation to meet our customers’ evolving needs.

“Our combined businesses allow greater opportunity to work together to achieve even more innovation,” said Jim Nixon, president, Quanex Custom Mixing. “We’re making an organizational commitment to fostering new ideas, ongoing investment and support, close collaboration, and resource sharing between cross-functional teams. Across the globe, our business and employees share the common drive for success and delivering for their customers—and we can all learn from each other.”

That idea-sharing is a game-changer. Across Quanex, teams have distinct access to different processes, different tools, and different ideas. The methods of one person may be eye-opening to his or her counterpart in other businesses—and that can lead to dramatic results.

“Our expansion strengthens not only our scale but our ability to act quickly, think strategically, and serve our customers responsibly,” Jim said.

A BIGGER Purpose

Today, we’re proud to say that our organization isn’t just BIGGER. We’re better positioned than ever to deliver value, innovation, and opportunity. And we are even more A Part of Something Bigger for our stakeholders.

“We’re challenging the status quo,” Jessica said. “We want to continue to grow, and to do that,t we have to challenge the everyday norm.”

Marco Cinti, divisional marketing manager, Quanex, concurred. “Being a part of Quanex allows our brands to leverage global expertise, advanced research and development, and a strong network of industry leaders. The collaboration fosters innovation, operational excellence, and the ability to respond to market conditions with agility. It’s a partnership that strengthens brand legacy while opening new doors for future growth.”
