Made for Trade Releases Innovative Korniche Flat Rooflight
The third product in the multi-award winning Korniche range continues to offer the same market-leading design and installation efficiencies , for flat glass roof glazing
Since inception , the Korniche brand has always represented a new era in the field of fenestration design ; with a quality-led focus on clever engineering applied from other industries to bring with it benefits for the installer , re-seller and homeowner . That same list of attributes and USPs has now been applied to the third item in the range ; the new Flat Rooflight .
The unveiling at the FIT Show 2023 brought about not only a huge amount of positive feedback from trade installers keen to capitalise on a product that can offer benefits for the homeowner as well as saving time and money for the installer , but also notable positivity from the glazing industry in general ; seemingly keen to use a solution that applies Korniche ’ s USPs to a flat glass rooflight installation .
Fabrication of the Korniche flat glass is expected to commence this September , and Made for Trade ’ s contemporary and innovative new system once again incorporates features derived from precision engineering alongside market-leading manufacturing , research & development to really stand out in an industry that can so easily just focus on the outright minimal cost . Much like the Korniche Bi-folding doors and Roof Lantern , the flat glass system is impressively quick and simple to install for the trade partner with unrivalled efficiency , whilst offering the superior quality at a competitive price point .
Number one in the Korniche ’ s list of USPs remains ease of installation , and with the design of the Flat Rooflight , that fussfree fitting remains second to none . The installer just needs to position , fix , seal and clip the fastener-covering fascia ’ s into place for the perfect finish , taking just a matter of minutes : truly ‘ Fit , Glaze & Go !’
The aesthetic appeal is another quality which mirrors that of the Korniche Bi-Folding doors and lantern , via the use of a sleek and ultra-slimline profile design that uses high strength aluminium along
with thermally-broken polyamide frame components to ensure the highest thermal efficiency ; something that has never been so paramount as in 2023 . To that end , the Korniche Flat Rooflight can also be easily speci- fied with either 28mm double or 44mm triple glazing thanks to its innovative outer subframe , whilst the glass tints on offer included blue , neutral and clear .
Naturally , those tint shades can be complemented by a choice of frame colour options as well as countless standard and bespoke sizes from 600x600mm , right up to a maximum length of 3000mm and width of 1800mm ( subject to overall glass area ), and suitable for between three and five degree roof pitches . Security comes
as standard with all Made for Trade products , and with PAS24:2016 approval , the Korniche Flat Rooflight delivers the correct peace of mind needed for protecting your home . Furthermore , with industry-leading short lead times and a one-drop delivery service , the time taken from order to a secure and complete roof is at its absolute minimum with Korniche .
Finally , one unique aspect of the new product - that is akin to that of the multi-award winning Korniche Bi-Folding door - is a design step in place to allow glass to be replaced without hassle or compromising the main system . This is achieved on the Flat Rooflight via a new patent pending feature that allows glass to
