TITON VENT RANGE GROWS TO MEET MARKET DEMAND
Titon ’ s recent investment in new tooling and assembly machinery is now coming to fruition by allowing us to widen its choice of options in its mainline plastic vent ranges .
Changes in customer demand since the revision to the Building Regulations last year have meant the need for a broader range of colours in both ventilators and external canopies . Window and door profiles are now offered in a standard palette of colours , so ventilator manufacturers are expected to keep the majority of these in stock to cope with demand and shorter lead times . Titon ’ s newest machinery will enable more flexibility in replenishing those stocks and bring efficiencies to production .
In addition three plastic vent sizes , 2000mm2EA , 4000mm2EA and 5000mm2EA mean most applications can be covered in England , Wales , Scotland and Northern Ireland , with a choice of grilles for use in overhead sections or canopies for use externally .
The increase in demand following on from the revision to the Ventilation Regulations proved difficult for vent manufacturers , fabricators and specifiers last year but Titon is in a great position to supply according to demand with stock on the shelf in the majority of options .
