Aribell Purchases Venting Sidelight Business from Wardco

Aribell Products Ltd. of Woodbridge, Ontario, announced this week that it has agreed to purchase the venting sidelight business of Wardco Manufacturing. Wardco is based in Burlington, Ontario.

Aribell will now manufacture these venting sidelights, and add these to its existing line of door components.

"The addition of these venting sidelights enhances our overall product offering to Canadian door pre-hangers," says Brian Belzberg, president of Aribell. "As the new and exclusive manufacturer of these, Aribell is well positioned to offer this product at very attractive prices, and looks forward to building the market penetration of venting sidelights."

Wardco's Rick Ward adds, "We felt that while we have been successful selling this product to door pre-hangers, we were essentially selling to our competition. There was far more potential in the market place for venting sidelights if sold by a specialist serving all door pre-hangers. Wardco needed the space for our other operations, and Aribell as both a valued supplier and well-connected with all Canadian door pre-hangers was the natural buyer."
