GLASS & STRUCTURAL GLAZING – SEALED UNITS Edgetech UK has welcomed South Wales based glazing contractors and glass merchants Treforest Glass into the Part 3 Club. Terry Potter,general manager ofTreforest Glass explains why they took the decision to join:“We rarely get offered the opportunity to be a part of something that will be of benefit to us at no extra cost, but the Part 3 Club from Edgetech offers just that. When Mel Jones of Edgetech came to see us and explained what being a member meant forTreforest, we thought it was a great idea – not only because of the cost saving benefits on Gasglass products for example,but the marketing support material to help us promote our pass will really help us set ourselves above our competitors. “Edgetech continually develop initiatives to support their customers, which provide a range of support mechanisms and promotional material to ultimately help win more business. The Part 3 Club is the latest of those initiatives and we think it is a great way to endorse the fact we passed Part 3 of EN1279 last October. We want all of our customers to know we are serious about achieving the necessary standards and the Part 3 Club marketing material will help us do just that.” ❐ Tel: 08700 566844 www.superspacer.co.uk Rocketing to a record Sales of Swisspacer have increased dramatically at Magden, one of its UK distributors. With four branches across the country – Manchester, Rotherham, Leeds and Newcastle – delivering nationwide, Magden’s sales have rocketed to record levels since May 2010, and are currently four times what they were 12 months ago. Sales manager Jim Smith says more companies are realising the benefits of using Swisspacer: “We have new customers buying Swisspacer on a regular basis as they make the move away from aluminium spacer bars. In particular,smaller companies are making the switch to keep up with customer demand for high performance sealed units. Existing customers are increasing their volume considerably as they move more production to warm edge. “It is increasingly important for sealed unit manufacturers to choose the correct warm edge spacer bar because they need to be able to sell sealed units which meet their customers’ energy rating requirements. Swisspacer has proven performance credentials and is a well-known brand. We’re seeing an 22 increasing trend of fabricators specifying Swisspacer because it helps them achieve better energy ratings. Many window companies are offering ‘A’ rated windows to give them a marketing advantage. And as the market has matured, more companies are offering a ‘C’ rated window as standard. Swisspacer’s range of products – Swisspacer and Swisspacer V – make it easy to achieve whatever rating is specified, whether it is an ‘A’,‘B’ or a ‘C’. “Ease of use is another major benefit particularly for smaller companies.They don’t have to invest in specialised machinery or make changes to their factory – they can start using it straight away. Nor do they need to make any changes to their paperwork because they can apply the substitution rules.” ❐ Magden Tel: 0161 796 2030 Swisspacer Tel: 0845 601 1265 The Fabricator 2011
Take a Second Look Edgetech is a name synonymous with Warm Edge Technology (WET), but if you think we only have ‘Green’ and energy efficiency to offer you, then maybe you should take another look.
