Testing is generally undertaken in accordance with European and
International Standards, including CWCT (Centre for Window and

Product Standard. A typical test sequence for a Curtain Walling
System or a Rainscreen Cladding System would include the
following:

• Wind Loading (Serviceability & Safety)
• Hose Testing
• Impact Testing
• Controlled Dismantle & Report
In addition to their UKAS Accredited testing services, Wintech
have also developed the unique WinMark™ UKAS Accredited
Certification Schemes for the Enhanced Security of Windows
& Doors and the Performance of Curtain Walling & Rainscreen
Cladding Products, the later scheme helps demonstrate compliance
with NHBC Standard, Chapter 6.9, soon to be followed by a similar
scheme compliant with Premier Guarantee Technical Manual
Section 7.7.5. Wintech are the only company in the UK to offer
Curtain Wall & Rainscreen Cladding Testing and Certification as a
package from the same location.
Gary Sherrard, R & D Design Engineer, of Hydro Building Systems
UK Limited, has had recent experience of testing both Windows
& Doors and Curtain Wall products at Wintech’s state-of-the-
art testing facilities in the heart of Shropshire, near the famous
Ironbridge, the Birthplace of Industry. When asked why Hydro
Building Systems UK Limited chooses Wintech for their testing
needs, he told us “That’s an easy one, it’s the people and level
of service they provide. Whether it’s flexible dates for testing, or
finalising the test report, the level of service from start to finish
is exactly what Hydro Building Systems UK Limited have come to
expect in today’s fast-paced digital environment”.
