In 1990, he upgraded his part-time company and turned it into full-time company which expanded its activities into importing and selling slats and other picture framing materials. The beginnings of MIK therefore go back to his home courtyard in the village of Gaji, in the vicinity of Celje. In the family home where he grew up, Franci&#8217;s mother Marija let her son use the garage where he and his long-time girlfriend Adrijana, who is now his wife, and a couple of friends were able to start making his entrepreneurial dreams come true.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_739988952\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"723\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-1-1992-mik-celje-1128x800.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-1-1992-mik-celje-1128x800.jpg 1128w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-1-1992-mik-celje-564x400.jpg 564w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-1-1992-mik-celje-768x545.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-1-1992-mik-celje-1536x1090.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-1-1992-mik-celje.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_739988952 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p class=\"p1\">Franci set his first office, workshop and warehouse in the garage of his family home which his mother Marija kindly let him use.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1420403802\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  data-animate=\"fadeInDown\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1417367291\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"723\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-hisa-1-1992-mik-celje-1128x800.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-hisa-1-1992-mik-celje-1128x800.jpg 1128w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-hisa-1-1992-mik-celje-564x400.jpg 564w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-hisa-1-1992-mik-celje-768x545.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-hisa-1-1992-mik-celje-1536x1090.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/delavnica-hisa-1-1992-mik-celje.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1417367291 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p class=\"p1\">The story of MIK was born in the family home of Franci Pliber\u0161ek in the village of Gaji in the vicinity of Celje.<\/p>\n<p>The first trade fair presentations also came with the development of the picture framing material business.

In the meantime, something unexpected happened: the company of his acquaintance for whom he had bought and imported the window-manufacturing production line went belly-up. Franci Pliber\u0161ek was therefore left with a high financial debt and a window-manufacturing production line, with no idea as to what to do with it. Here is what the CEO of MIK Celje has to say about this story: \u201c<em>This was the right moment for me to start doubting; the right turning point for me to say, well, that\u2019s it for me. But I don\u2019t believe in coincidences. What I do believe, however, is that there is a message hiding in every single thing. If your intentions are pure, every single message will be a positive one<\/em>.\u201d (a quote from the book \u201cVsemogo\u010dni v ogledalu\u201d (Almighty in the Mirror) that Franci Pliber\u0161ek published alongside Mateja Zorko Pav\u0161ar). At approximately the same time, he bought the industrial hall of another failed company in Celje, and as he stood in front of the window-manufacturing production line that he did not manage to sell to its agreed owner, he decided to try and manufacture windows, even though he had no previous knowledge of the matter. Franci Pliber\u0161ek created his first windows with his wife Adrijana and his faithful colleagues at 600m<sup>2<\/sup>, which soon expanded to 1,700m<sup>2<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1943111758\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  data-animate=\"fadeInDown\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_830823922\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"670\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/proizvodnja-ce-plast-1-mik-celje-1218x800.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/proizvodnja-ce-plast-1-mik-celje-1218x800.jpg 1218w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/proizvodnja-ce-plast-1-mik-celje-609x400.jpg 609w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/proizvodnja-ce-plast-1-mik-celje-768x504.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/proizvodnja-ce-plast-1-mik-celje-1536x1009.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/proizvodnja-ce-plast-1-mik-celje.jpg 1753w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_830823922 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p class=\"p1\">CE Plast in Celje<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_537682081 {\n  padding-top: 0px;\n  padding-bottom: 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_166330513\">\n\t\t<div class=\"section-bg fill\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"is-border\"\n\t\tstyle=\"border-color:rgb(153, 153, 153);border-width:1px 0px 0px 0px;\">\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n<span class=\"scroll-to\" data-label=\"Scroll to: #5\" data-bullet=\"false\" data-link=\"#5\" data-title=\"5\"><a name=\"5\"><\/a><\/span>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-733306181\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-506721675\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  data-animate=\"fadeInDown\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h2 class=\"liteHeadline\"style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 200%;

Until 2003, MIK windows were sold by retailer Merkur, which also increased the sales figures and the income which the company further invested into the professionalism, knowledge, development, and staffing of the company. Initially, MIK was composed of three colleagues who started their journey in Pliber\u0161ek&#8217;s garage at home; at the end of the 1990s, the company already had 30 employees. In 2000, the production line was upgraded to a computer-controlled option which was one of the first instances of such production lines in Europe. In the immediate vicinity of the family home where Franci Pliber\u0161ek took his first steps as an entrepreneur, MIK built a new business building and opened the first MIK showroom and gallery, which provided space for numerous exhibitions of Slovenian fine artists in the framework of their picture framing material import activity.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_166330513 {\n  padding-top: 0px;\n  padding-bottom: 0px;\n  background-color: rgb(240, 240, 240);\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_627263828\">\n\t\t<div class=\"section-bg fill\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"is-border\"\n\t\tstyle=\"border-color:rgb(153, 153, 153);border-width:1px 0px 0px 0px;\">\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n<span class=\"scroll-to\" data-label=\"Scroll to: #6\" data-bullet=\"false\" data-link=\"#6\" data-title=\"6\"><a name=\"6\"><\/a><\/span>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-201834757\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-502317665\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  data-animate=\"fadeInDown\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h2 class=\"liteHeadline\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 200%; color: #999;\">2000\u20132008<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 130%;\">Establishment of a sales network and newly opened MIK showrooms<\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"text-center\"><div class=\"is-divider divider clearfix\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:1px;background-color:rgb(153, 153, 153);\"><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-502317665 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 30px 0px 0px 0px;\n  margin: 0px 0px -30px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1623920667\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<p>When the Slovenian market was thoroughly tested through Merkur\u2019s sales network, MIK began to expand its own retail network from its native town of Celje to all Slovenian regions between 2004 and 2008.

administrative and production building in Vojnik, the construction of which took a mere six months. When the company moved to the new location in Vojnik in September 2007, the number of employees increased to nearly 120; by the end of 2010, the company had over 190\u00a0employees and 110 contract installers. In the years following at the new location in Vojnik, the production and sale of ALU and wooden builders\u2019 joinery and ventilated facades, the development and installation of comprehensive glazing design solutions, front doors and fire doors, as well as the development and production of local MIKrovent ventilation systems were added to the production of PVC windows.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_869031219 {\n  padding-top: 0px;\n  padding-bottom: 0px;\n  background-color: rgb(240, 240, 240);\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_1570329547\">\n\t\t<div class=\"section-bg fill\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"is-border\"\n\t\tstyle=\"border-color:rgb(153, 153, 153);border-width:1px 0px 0px 0px;\">\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n<span class=\"scroll-to\" data-label=\"Scroll to: #8\" data-bullet=\"false\" data-link=\"#8\" data-title=\"8\"><a name=\"8\"><\/a><\/span>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-50699175\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-728949690\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  data-animate=\"fadeInDown\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h2 class=\"liteHeadline\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 200%; color: #999;\">2007\u2013today<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 130%;\">Orientation towards scientific development \u2013 incorporation of the Dr Peter Novak Institute<\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-873638618\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1411328482\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"text-center\"><div class=\"is-divider divider clearfix\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:1px;background-color:rgb(153, 153, 153);\"><\/div><\/div>\n<p>At the same time, MIK Celje also started focusing on scientific development, embodied by the opening of the Dr Peter Novak Institute and a test chamber, which is a unique feature among Slovenian builders\u2019 joinery manufacturers.

The purpose of this testing is to develop and manufacture the most advanced, insulating and energy-efficient builders\u2019 joinery elements and local ventilation systems. In doing so, MIK Celje upgraded its production of builders\u2019 joinery with an umbrella philosophy embodied by the slogan \u201cImproving the quality of living\u201d.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1648411930\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"333\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/razvojni-center-prof-dr-petra-novaka-koncno.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/razvojni-center-prof-dr-petra-novaka-koncno.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/razvojni-center-prof-dr-petra-novaka-koncno-800x266.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/razvojni-center-prof-dr-petra-novaka-koncno-768x256.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1648411930 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1900337538\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1076487037\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"306\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Mikrovent-35.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Mikrovent-35.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Mikrovent-35-800x240.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Mikrovent-35-768x230.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1076487037 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-728949690 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 30px 0px 0px 0px;\n  margin: 0px 0px -30px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1570329547 {\n  padding-top: 0px;\n  padding-bottom: 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_1722002448\">\n\t\t<div class=\"section-bg fill\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"is-border is-dotted\"\n\t\tstyle=\"border-color:rgb(201, 201, 201);border-width:1px 0px 1px 0px;\">\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\r\n\r\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1387854169\">\r\n\r\n\n\t<div id=\"col-614527439\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  data-animate=\"fadeInLeft\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner text-left\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-614527439 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 10px 0px 0px 0px;\n  margin: 0px 0px -20px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_1722002448 {\n  padding-top: 0px;\n  padding-bottom: 0px;\n  background-color: rgba(201, 201, 201, 0.1);\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"parent":22400,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-blank.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-22419","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/22419","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22419"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/22419\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/22400"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mik-ce.si\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
