history

The history of the window manufacturer Internorm begins with the establishment of a building and construction metalworking shop by Eduard Klinger senior. in 1931. In the following years Eduard Klinger sen. expand his company from a one-man operation to a medium-sized metal construction company. In 1963 Eduard Klinger sen. the license for the construction of plastic windows in Austria. At that time, plastic was hardly used in Austria.

The company began producing PVC-U windows under the "Internorm" brand in 1966. The first production site was today's headquarters in Traun in Upper Austria . Eduard Klinger Sr. involved in 1967 his children Eleonore, Eduard jun. and Helmut at the company. Under the management of the second generation, Internorm developed into the Austrian market leader in the window market. The rapid growth of the company required another production site , which Internorm found by acquiring a window manufacturer in Sarleinsbach in 1977.

A third location for the production of plastic windows was opened in 1980 in St. Andrä-Wölker in Lower Austria . In 1993 this plant was closed again and sales for Eastern Austria were reorganized. Eduard Klinger Strasse in the local industrial area, named after the company founder, is still a reminder of the production site at that time. The former factory is now the seat of many small businesses and an office center.

In 1997 the second generation of the Klinger family withdrew from the operative business of the window manufacturer Internorm. The management of the company was now the responsibility of their children, Anette Klinger, Christian Klinger and Stephan Kubinger.

In 2002 Internorm founded the "International Window Network IFN" as a new umbrella company for all corporate companies. The “Internorm” brand was made independent as a separate business area.

In 2007 the first Internorm flagship store was opened in Pasching . In Austria, further flagship stores followed in Vienna and Innsbruck .

In June 2010 the management of the Internorm International division changed from Silvio Spiess to the owner Christian Klinger and at the front door manufacturer Topic (Sarleinsbach) in January 2012 from Bernhard Bohusch to Stephan Kubinger from the owner family.
