INITIATIVES
A further benefit of being a Member of an Association like CAB is to be able to become involved in leading edge initiatives such as CABs ’ very own ‘ Closed Loop Recycling ’ initiative . Open for any member who handles both pre consumer and post consumer scrap to join , the initiative encourages more aluminium ‘ grade ’ awareness so that a window extrusion that could have a life of fifty years or more , can be recycled back into a further window extrusion with no loss in characteristics and virtually no waste . The initiative also aims to keep more used aluminium in the UK and encourages a cyclical product life cycle . Likely to become legislation at some point in the future , the initiative offers members a strong negotiating base when pitching for new business within the industry .

TRAINING
Stepping beyond Membership and reaching out to the thousands of Curtain Wall Installers across the UK , CAB have just launched a route to obtain a CSCS Skills card which is seen by main contractors as a recognised measure of professional competency on site . Members of CAB benefit from receiving some of this training at reduced costs . It is important to recognise that any Association belongs to its Members and the more influence
|
that Members can bring into the Association , the further the Association will grow . The CAB Board of Directors is committed to grow the Association and continue to increase value for membership . With a new CAB Chief Executive shortly to be appointed to head up the dedicated CAB Team in Gloucestershire , 2021 will be a challenge but one the Association will rise to and ensure membership value continues to increase . |
Despite the pandemic , it is business as usual at CAB and staff are on hand at the offices to answer any aluminium fenestration related questions . Information is regularly updated on the CAB website at www . c-a-b . org . uk .
