Energy Efficient Windows
Since our incorporation in 1977 we have been committed to manufacturing energy efficient windows that achieve at least the minimum life expectancy. This has led to us partnering ourselves with companies such as Deceuninck, Maco and Securistyle, who are all well respected names within the industry.
In early 2006, we realised the importance of not only developing durable windows, but also developing windows that are energy efficient. Consequently we quickly understood the importance of communicating this to our customers and therefore became involved with the BFRC.
In early 2009, we rationalised our registered window products with the BFRC targeting only those which achieved an "A" rating. We currently have both UPVC and timber energy rated windows available for both trade and commercial customers.

Energy Saving Trust
Further to our involvement with the BFRC we have also registered our energy efficient windows with the Energy Saving Trust, demonstrating our commitment to manufacturing and installing products that are both durable and efficient.
