Edgetech: "It's hugely gratifying that we've been able to continue supporting our customers throughout this tumultuous period - and I'm especially pleased to see comments praising new initiatives like our online ordering system, which took a lot of hard work and dedication to get up and running." explains head of marketing and customer experience, Charlotte Hawkes
Conservatory Outlet: "We had been looking at introducing more digitalisation to the shopfloor, but the pandemic accelerated how quickly we did this, and the live tracking manufacturing system has been a real game-changer for the business, delivering efficiencies we didn't deem possible six months ago." continued, Michael Giscombe, managing director
Abcell: "The changes to Doc L is going to create the need for many installers to think carefully about the products that they offer customers, But there's no need to panic. It's all in the name - WarmCore was designed to offer better energy efficiency than other aluminium glazing products. It already offers impressive thermal efficiency with U-values as low as 1.0 W/m²K on bi-folds and 0.8 W/m²K on windows." says Neville Gleed, operations director.
REHAU: "Energy efficiency has never been too far from consumers’ minds, and this latest survey from the HBF reaffirms this. With Part L guidelines also being tightened as part of the Future Homes Standard and wider efforts to reduce green house gas emissions, windows professionals should look into the U-Value of their current solutions to stay ahead of legislation and trends." says Russell Hand, head of product and technical
Rapierstar: "The proposed changes to Parts L and Q will have big implications on the fasteners. So if you are looking at changing any aspect of your window or door specification, it is really important to consider where you may need to change the fasteners too." said: Paul Balfe, technical consultant
Thermoseal Group: "When constructing IG units using tube spacer systems, the spacer should be filled with a quality 3A desiccant. Whilst there is a general assumption that if a desiccant is tested by a notified body (for Moisture capacity) and the factory where the desiccant is manufactured has a recognised quality system (i.e. - ISO 9000) that the desiccant is of a high quality. This is not necessarily the case." explains, Group’s Sales Director, Mark Hickox
Guardian Glass: "In order to achieve a Ug-value of 1.0, Guardian Glass has taken a very different approach, believing that the glass should help bring as much natural daylight as possible into people’s homes, with clearer, less reflective view. Thanks to Guardian knowledge in coated glass innovation ClimaGuard Neutral 1.0 is more colour-neutral with a lower reflection." Comments Gary Frakes, regional sales manager UK & Ireland
Kömmerling: " It's been pleasing to experience a product development programme with all participants eager for success. Our flush sash window is a market leader by design and quality, whilst the Avantis hardware is very highly regarded too. The clever bit is when the windows are activated with the Kubu smart-sensor." commented Kevin Warner, sales and marketing director
