» BM ALUMINIUM’S MANAGING
Director Dean Hodges says: “Every
update takes into account feedback from
customers, so they are always useful. Even
if you don’t think you’ll necessarily benefit
from the new features though, it’s still best
practice to always be working with the
latest version of any piece of.”
For example, it now allows users
building complex positions to import
grids from one position to another with
just a few clicks, and it automatically adds
machinings to thresholds.
Greater levels of customisation are
achievable, with users able to add in as
many free articles as they choose under
their supplier option and standardise more
hardware configurations for use as pre-sets.
Reporting is clearer too.
Horizontal ventilation sashes have been
added and new functions to process lift
and slide door combinations with 90°
corners and 90°corner mullions with cover
cap profiles in facades. There are also
improvements for making glass designs and
foil illustrations clearer for presentations.

Conservatory
roof replacements
to top the home
improvement wish list
With a spike in
Google searches for
‘conservatories, ‘home
office,’ and ‘home gyms,’
since lockdown, it appears
that the home is set to
change from a living space
to a multi-functional space.
» AND THAT’S GOOD NEWS FOR
registered installers of SupaLite’s Tiled Roof
System, which will increase in demand as a
result.
Steve Hacking, Managing Director of
SupaLite, said: “Despite the country slowly
easing out of lockdown, people are finding
that working from home, whether full-time
or part-time, is the new norm. And, despite
gyms being given the go-ahead to open their
doors again, many are not willing to take
that chance, and instead want to continue
exercising at home.
“And with the recent news that there could
be a potential second wave of the virus in the
winter, getting the right extra space sorted at
home for any eventuality is the number one
priority for people.
“They will be looking at ways to achieve it,
whether through replacing their inefficient
conservatory with a retro-fit product or
investing in a brand-new conservatory,
complete with a high-performance solid tiled
roof.”
A SPACE TRANSFORMED
The SupaLite Tiled Roof System uses
lightweight aluminium beams and rafters,
100mm high-density, humidity-proof,
insulation and high-performance ExtraLight
roof tiles to achieve a U-value rating of
0.18W/m²K.
It undergoes thorough testing and is subject
to extensive research, producing a compliant,
resilient product which is compatible with
all roof styles. The system is easy-to-install
and fully accredited for Building Regulations
approval.
The Tiled Roof System will transform any
tired conservatory into a welcoming living
space free from wind and rain noise, leaks, and
extreme temperature fluctuations.
TAKE ADVANTAGE
The company now has a dedicated training
space and showroom site near its headquarters
in Preston for its partners to utilise. And
along with its original SupaLite roof, it offers
solutions to suit all types of conservatory
and orangery and a full range of design
and customisation options across all roof
systems, with the showroom, and the training,
refreshed and updated regularly.
Becoming a SupaLite Registered Installer
has never been easier and with the market in
its current buoyant state, now is the time to
take advantage.
