Ahead of the debate ,
Dean Bradley commented ,
“ Triple glazing has its
advantages and disadvantages
, but for installers
the questions are multiple .
Firstly , there ’ s understanding
the compliance with regulations
should it become a
compulsory measure at some
point in the future . Secondly ,
is the companies ’ capability
and what they have to do
|
to compete . There ’ s a lot to debate and many factors to consider , but the one thing that is certain is that triple glazing is not going away and if anything , it is likely to increase over the next decade .” |
Triple glazing does have its environmental and economic benefits for homeowners but there are issues in the supply chain and in particular at the installation end .
Dean Bradley adds , “ Glazpart as always keeps abreast of the incoming legislation to ensure our customers are aware of what is coming down the pipeline . As well as imparting knowledge , we have also prepared products with our range of glazing accessories for fabricators
|
and installers who make and fit triple glazing . We are ready for the inevitable increase in triple glazing , though I ’ m not so sure our industry as a whole is prepared for what lies ahead . I look forward to the debate and sharing my views and knowledge on triple glazing , which is more than just an extra pane of glass in window .”
