combinations? Offer an additional 64 colour combinations in 10 days, and an OTIF that’s consistently better than 99%? Plus provide specials that are powder coated at a Qualicoat ‘Seaside’ approved paint plant in just 15 days?

If this doesn’t sound like your current aluminium system supplier, then it’s time to take a serious look at Sheerline – the UK’s most agile and customer focused aluminium systems company.

Nothing ruins a fabricator’s hard-earned reputation for good customer service like letting installers and homeowners down. Few things have such a negative impact on a production environment than products not turning up when you expect them to, or when there are missing components on an order.

That’s why all Sheerline orders come with an itemised delivery report, giving full visibility of what’s going to arrive, by job. We send these delivery reports to fabricators the day before the delivery is due, giving them time to rearrange their production plans if required – but with an OTIF that runs northwards of 99.4%, that doesn’t happen very often.

This high level of reliability doesn’t happen by accident. We’ve invested over £19M (to date) to create a business with optimum levels of vertical integration. From aluminium and thermal break extrusion to injection moulding our key components, and even investing in our own powder coating plant – everything is located on one UK site – giving us an agile and efficient

Our customers also benefit from our unified system design that allows us to assemble our profiles close to the point of dispatch. Enabling them to operate with the confidence that lets them hold less stock – yet deliver a more reliable service to their customers.

If your business is plagued by poor service, extended lead-times on orders and an unhelpful attitude to finding solutions when issues arise, then it’s time to talk to us.

Reliable UK-based manufacturing at its best. (Our products are pretty exceptional too!)

best for the environment.”

That is the call from Building Our Skills and one of its National Partners, CNC Recycling. The ‘Making Fenestration, Glass and Glazing a Career of Choice’ campaign and the nationwide PVCU window recycling specialist company have already begun to make inroads into this area.

Ian Ward, CNC Recycling’s Sales & Purchasing Director, explains:

Mark Handley, Partnerships Manager of Building Our Skills agrees: “When youngsters are asked to list the issue that they are most motivated by, they usually talk about the environment. For example, the schools’ initiative called the Pupils’ Parliament, bears this out. So, we are completely in agreement with CNC Recycling when it comes to making this topic a

whole topic.”

Our Skills’ industry-bespoke careers festivals earlier in the year, and were blown away by the level of interest we received from youngsters telling us exactly this. They simply didn’t know that landfill has been replaced by recycling, and that the main players in the PVCU window industry take minimising its environmental impact so seriously. With approximately 84% of all new windows fitted being PVCU in the UK, they could see that this is very important. By the end of their visits, youngsters and teachers alike had gained a clearer insight into this aspect of the industry, and went away with a far more positive view of it from an environmental perspective.

“I’m not saying that new recruits would necessarily want to work in the recycling sector, simply that they are far more likely to pick the fenestration industry for employment if they do not have negative or incorrect preconceptions about its environmental credentials. We’ll be continuing this work at next year’s BOS careers festivals too and I hope that industry employers get on board with promoting fenestration as a good move for

Recycling

is

a

Middlesborough-based

organisation, although it operates on a nationwide basis. The company collects thousands of tonnes of old PVCU windows and doors across the UK every year from installers and fabricators. This enables recycled materials to be fed back into the supply chain as a valuable secondary raw material to produce new windows and doors. The company collects over 1 million windows per year, and over the last eighteen months has collected from 1,289 window companies nationally. It has been proved that PVCU, due to its thermoplastic nature, can be recycled nine times without any significant loss of performance (Source: EPPA*).

Over the past twelve months CNC Recycling has invested approximately £2 million in state-of-theart equipment in order to improve further the process efficiency of its ‘closed loop’ system. Closed loop refers to the no-wastage aspect of the process, which enables all parts of old PVCU windows and doors, including metal and rubber parts, to be reused. The new sorting and separating equipment

recovers clean white and ‘jazz’ (coloured) post-industrial and post-consumer PVCU. This recovered PVCU is now ready for further processing within the Fenestration industry and reintroduced into the core of new profile, keeping this valuable recycled material within the window industry and completing the genuine closed loop recycling.

Business owners who wish to learn more about how to use environmental messaging in their initiatives to attract new employees are welcome to contact either the sales team at CNC Recycling at email sales@cncrecycling.co.uk or by telephone 01642 983188 or Mark Handley at Building Our Skills at email markhandley@buildingourskills.co.uk.

Uap Expands 5 Roller Lock & Flip Hinge Into The Uk Market UAP Ltd has announced the introduction of its innovative 5 Roller 35mm Backset Multipoint Door Lock to the UK market.

UAP Ltd is a leading manufacturer of high-security multipoint locking systems for PVCu, composite, timber, steel, and aluminium doors.

Following its success in Ireland, UAP is now expanding its 5 Roller 35mm Backset Multipoint Door Lock across the UK. The new lock offers several key features: it is equipped with a fifth roller below the centre, allowing for easier door compression and adjustment. The door frame’s one piece keep suits all door profiles by using a profile related packer system. The frame keep can also be adjusted using only an Allen key, simplifying both fabrication and installation.

The lock’s central hook mechanism replaces the traditional deadbolt, offering stronger resistance to forceful entry. Two anti-lift pins further secure the door by preventing it from being lifted when locked. Its top and bottom hooks move in opposite directions, ensuring one remains locked if the other is compromised.

Boasting up to thirteen locking points, compared to six or eight in typical locks, the 5 Roller Lock provides unmatched security for 99% of doors, making it the market leader in adaptable locking systems.

Gareth Davies, Area Sales Manager for the South West, Midlands, and Ireland at UAP Ltd, said: “The expanded rollout of this lock is just one example of our commitment to product innovation. Where other companies are happy to follow the status quo and continue using the same lock structures, we’re always working to make our door locks as secure as they can possibly be. Building on our success in Ireland, we’re excited to help make UK homes and businesses safer with our advanced security solutions.”

Passive House is a leading energy-efficient building standard that ensures indoor comfort and insulation through exceptional airtightness and thermal performance, resulting in minimal energy usage and clean air. It promotes the construction of healthy, comfortable, and sustainable buildings.

Time plays a vital role in the installation of windows, and the new KWD92 UT+ window system allows fabrication to be up to 30% faster than Kawneer’s current range. Using Winkhaus’ efficient

Maria Morgan, UK Product Manager for Kawneer comments “We are delighted with our collaboration with Winkhaus to help introduce our new innovative Passive House window to the UK market.

This partnership combines our expertise in sustainable building solutions with Winkhaus’ own commitment to providing efficient sustainable solutions, that together help set a new standard for performance, speed, and efficiency. Together, we aim to provide homeowners and builders with a high-performance Passive House window that not only meet but exceed the requirements of the Passive House standard, ensuring superior thermal comfort and energy savings.”

aluPilot: Click. Click. Done aluPilot’s time-saving result has been confirmed through extensive testing with manufacturers during the development and roll-out of aluPilot to European and UK systems houses. When multiplied across weekly production, these time savings really start to add up. The drive rod concept of aluPilot simplifies and streamlines the window manufacturing process by eliminating several traditional steps: •

No cutting or punching of connecting rods

•

No punching of profile grooves

•

No waste from offcuts of connecting rods

•

No Screws

With aluPilot, components are clicked into place, making the process more efficient and reducing cutting waste. This innovative system offers a comprehensive range of mounting accessories for easy installation: Simplified Manufacturing - The streamlined manufacturing process eliminates the need for cutting or punching connecting rods, profile groove punching, and screws. Components click into place, reducing waste.

Easy Installation - Installation is made easy with an external bayonet locking system for secure power transmission, a CLICK mechanism for seamless sash hinge fixing, accessible height adjustment, and tool-free sash installation.

Smart

and protected components are

provided in one box, minimising the risk of missing parts and reducing hardware by up to 70% in burglarresistant setups.

Complete Tool Concept - aluPilot includes essential installation accessories: a Drive Mounting Tool for securing the drive, a Positioning Aid for precise keep placement, Sash Edge Protectors for corner protection, a Drilling Jig for PAS24 screw positioning, and a specialised Jig for Security Locking Modules. These tools streamline fabrication, ensuring efficient and accurate window assembly.

Testing And Development When integrating the aluPilot system, the components underwent rigorous testing in conjunction with KWD92 UT+. This included weather testing such as air permeability to EN 12207 (Class 4), watertightness to EN 12208 (Class 9A) and resistance to wind to EN 12210 (Class C5), as well as security testing to EN 1627 RC2 and PAS 24.

This testing phase provides seamless compatibility and functionality, ensuring that aluPilot becomes an integral part of the profile design. By testing the “click in” system components alongside the profiles from the systems house, any necessary adjustments or fine-tuning can be made at Winkhaus to optimise performance and reliability, meeting the precise requirements of the system. This collaborative testing process not only enhances the integration process but also ensures that the final product meets high standards of quality and performance.

With over 100 years of combined industry expertise in product development, manufacturing, and testing, the Winkhaus technical and laboratory teams offer proven solutions to ensure the success of its partners’ future innovations. Our added value services include consultation, CAD design, 3D prototyping, product assessment, product development days, and UKAS laboratory accreditation.

Kawneer’s Launch Events From the Winkhaus UK team, Business Strategy Manager, Andrew Wilkins, attended Kawneer’s initial launch event in Manchester, alongside Aluminium Systems Manager, Alastair Wheeler, and Content and Campaign Manager, Anna Marie Clementson, who both attended the second launch event in Surrey.

At the events, attendees were invited to view Kawneer’s management presentation explaining the features and benefits of the new window product, as well as its alignment to Passive House standards. The team at Kawneer also covered Winkhaus’ efficient window system, aluPilot, in their presentation, crediting the product’s time saving benefits as a contribution to the KWD92 UT+ window’s impressive time saving statistics.

Alastair Wheeler commented: “It was a privilege to attend both events for Kawneer’s launch of the innovative new Passive House certified KWD92 UT+ window. Not only did we get the opportunity to learn more about the process and specifications for the new product, but we also got the opportunity to showcase aluPilot’s features and benefits to the attendees, which contributes to the efficient performance of KWD92 UT+.”

“We are grateful to have worked in partnership with Kawneer to design and manufacture this fantastic new product both in the UK and in our European locations, and I was proud to see the positive reception that KWD92 UT+ received at the launch events.”
