Hidden Step Marketing LLC partners with Aluvetro Railing Co.
Hidden Step Marketing LLC has partnered with Italian glass and railing manufacturer Aluvetro to provide sales, marketing, and distribution expertise in the growing glass railing category.
Aluvetro is a manufacturer of aluminum and steel railing systems under the tradenames Garda, Modular and Lamina canopy. The collections feature patented time saving installation clamps in the Garda line and customizable pre-assembled sections in Modular. Lamina canopy achieves a four-foot cantilever with their glass canopy offering, says the manufacturer.
“The Aluvetro team is great to be partnered with as they are fully committed to the North American market and have been experts in the glass balustrade space dating back to 1972. Their collection of products is beautifully engineered offering measurable installation solutions and precision manufacturing that is unrivaled,” says Mike Kunard, owner, Hidden Step Marketing. “We see that frameless and low obstruction view glass railing is in a renaissance in the U.S. with suppliers in glass fabrication and the [location-based marketing] channels seeing significant gains, all driven by consumer demand.”
“We are pleased to work with Hidden Step Marketing’s experience building sales networks in the building material industry and specifically, Mike’s time as an expert in the decking and railing category,” says Davide Bonora, general manger, Aluvetro Group. “We have done work in the U.S. proactively since 2019 with several projects, including gaining Miami Dade Impact Certification and NOA certifications for select Garda systems, but are excited to grow throughout North America in all of our products with Hidden Step’s leadership.”
