Housing for All by 2022 and Affordable Housing.

With the government’s focus on ‘Housing for All’ by 2022 and ‘Affordable Housing’ being the flavour within the realty sector, the demand for doors and windows is expected to be robust, based on the new homes and also substantially due to the replacement of existing wooden doors and windows.
