Founded in 1874 as a small craft enterprise, heroal has evolved into an international manufacturer supplying fabricators, architects, planners, investors and building owners with tailored solutions.
A significant milestone in the company’s history came in 1969 when Johann Henkenjohann, grandson of the founder, introduced the roll-formed, foam-filled aluminium roller shutter slat. This innovation set new industry standards and influenced heroal’s future product development. Over the decades, the company expanded its portfolio to include window and door systems, curtain walls and, more recently, sun protection solutions.

The company offers a wide range of design options supported by its own coating facilities, as well as bending and edging services. Its systems are designed to be compatible across the building envelope, allowing for coordinated architectural solutions. A steadily expanding service offering enables heroal to provide targeted and practical support to its partners.
