Countdown to Corby: CWG Sets the Pace for 2026
The countdown is on to Thursday 23rd April 2026, when CWG will open the doors of its Corby manufacturing facility for a dedicated trade Open Day to mark the launch of its 2026 Choices range.
Aimed at installers, fabricators and trade partners, the event offers a first-hand look at the products shaping the year ahead. Visitors will be able to explore the full portfolio up close, speak directly with technical and sales specialists, and gain insight into how CWG is responding to changing regulations, sustainability targets and homeowner expectations.
The Open Day is designed to be practical and informative. From installation efficiencies and routes to compliance through to product positioning and sales opportunities, the focus is on giving partners usable knowledge they can take back to site and into the sales process.
Attendance is free, although registration is required via www. cwgchoices. com / openday.
ALUMINIUM LEADS THE 2026 RANGE
At the forefront of the 2026 Choices range is a strengthened aluminium offering, reflecting growing demand for slim sightlines, robust performance and straightforward compliance.
CWG’ s aluminium windows and doors for 2026 deliver improved thermal performance and simplified routes to meeting Building
Regulations. As energy efficiency and sustainability remain central to specification decisions, the aluminium systems have been developed to provide installers with durable, future-ready solutions that balance aesthetics with performance.
For installers, this means greater confidence when specifying aluminium across both new-build and refurbishment projects, supported by clear performance data and practical installation considerations.
EXPANDED TIMBER ALTERNATIVES
Alongside aluminium, CWG has significantly expanded its Alternative to Timber portfolio with new additions from Kömmerling and Residence Collection.
Kömmerling Vertical Sliders have been developed with heritage styling at their core, offering an authentic appearance combined with modern thermal efficiency and security performance. Designed with installer efficiency in mind, they provide a practical solution for conservation, heritage and refurbishment projects.
New Kömmerling Flush Open-Out Doors complement the existing flush window systems, creating a cohesive and design-led suite. Clean sightlines are matched with performance-led engineering, allowing installers to offer a consistent aesthetic across properties.
Completing the expansion are Residence Flush Open-In Doors. Combining traditional flush detailing with premium engineering, they offer strong energy performance and enhanced security credentials, opening further opportunities in the higher-end residential market.
SMART AS STANDARD
Smart technology continues to move from optional extra to expected feature. For 2026, CWG has expanded its partnership with Kubu to ensure broader smart integration across the Choices range.
Kubu-enabled functionality is now available as standard across Kömmerling windows and doors, Alternative to Timber doors, Solidor and Residence Collection windows and doors. This allows installers to offer connected, smart-ready solutions without additional complexity, providing homeowners with enhanced security, monitoring and peace of mind from the outset.
THE 2026 CHOICES PRODUCT GUIDE
The Open Day also marks the launch of the new 2026 Choices Product Guide, a comprehensive publication showcasing what CWG describes as the widest product range available from a single UK manufacturer.
More than a catalogue, the guide reflects continued investment in product development, sustainability and compliance. With Building Regulations evolving and customer expectations rising, the focus remains on delivering products that are straightforward to specify, simple to install and aligned with current performance standards.
