FlexScreen and Wallside Windows Join Forces for Enhanced Manufacturing

In a significant development for the window screen industry, FlexScreen, a leader in innovative window and patio door screens, has announced a licensing agreement with Wallside Windows. Established as a premier manufacturer and installer, Wallside Windows has been offering FlexScreen products since 2016. This new licensing deal marks a vital step in deepening their collaboration.

Strengthening Production Efficiency

The agreement enables Wallside Windows to manufacture FlexScreen products at its facilities located in Taylor, Michigan. This strategic move is expected to streamline production operations, enhance supply chain management, and improve the company's ability to respond to customer demands effectively. Joe Altieri, the founder and inventor of FlexScreen, expressed his enthusiasm for this partnership, noting that Wallside has been a valued partner for nearly a decade.

"Wallside recognized the value of FlexScreen early, and its team has been an outstanding partner for nearly a decade," Altieri stated. He added that this license agreement is a natural progression in their partnership, as Wallside embodies the principles of innovation and quality, both companies aim to deliver superior customer experiences.

A Legacy of Quality and Service

Wallside Windows boasts a rich history, having been established in 1944. It has built its reputation as a family-owned business that prioritizes high-quality vinyl replacement windows and customer service. With this new license, Wallside aims to leverage its existing capabilities and reinforce its commitment to providing exceptional products to homeowners in Michigan and Northern Ohio.

"FlexScreen has been a successful part of our product offering since 2016," said Adam Blanck, President of Wallside Windows. He continued, "Bringing this innovative technology into our own manufacturing operation allows us to build on that success while improving efficiency and supporting our commitment to quality to ensure we meet our customers' expectations."

Innovative Design and Technology

The FlexScreen technology represents a groundbreaking change in the window screen market. Its patented design replaces the traditional rigid aluminum frame with a flexible frame that simplifies the installation, removal, and storage process. This innovation not only enhances user experience but also mitigates production and service challenges that manufacturers typically face.

As part of the licensing agreement, FlexScreen will assist Wallside in implementing the new technology, encompassing equipment installation, employee training programs, and maintaining production quality standards. Further details about production capacity enhancements and product availability will be revealed as the implementation progresses.

Strategic Growth Through Acquisition

This licensing deal follows a strategic maneuver initiated by Seven Point Equity Partners, which acquired RiteScreen in 2014 and FlexScreen in 2025. The merger of these two firms formed a unified front in the window screen solution sector, combining RiteScreen's extensive manufacturing experience with FlexScreen's innovative technology.
