TAPE FOR MOST DEMANDING INSTALLATIONS
»»
BLACKBURN’ S MCDERMOTT Windows has become the latest glazing business to begin using tremco illbruck’ s TP650 Trio impregnated tape.
The long-established family firm now uses tremco illbruck’ s high-performance installation products on its most demanding installations, ensuring outstanding thermal efficiency, weather-resistance and all-round performance.
TP650 Trio is a pre-compressed, multi-functional polyurethane tape that’ s impregnated with flame-retardant resin. Designed for new-build and replacement installations, it’ s quick and simple to apply, and is vapour-permeable while still offering driving rain resistance of up to 600 Pa.
It’ s fully compliant with BS8213-4:2016 CoP for the survey and installation of windows and external door sets, and the Glass and Glazing Federation’ s Guide to Good Practice.
McDermott Managing Director Stephen McDermott commented:“ Our ethos is very clear – quality products are only worthwhile if you fit them properly.
“ A triple-A-rated, top-of-the-line window will not deliver the level of performance that the end-user expects if corners have been cut during the installation process. That’ s why we like tremco illbruck’ s TP650 Trio. It’ s quick, easy, and extremely reliable- and it ensures that every door and window product we install fulfils its potential.”

A TRULY REVOLUTIONARY DOOR
2018 has already been a great start for Manchesterbased windows and doors company, Force 8. The company that has manufactured windows and doors for over 25 years has added the Zermatt Decadence door to its ever-expanding collection of exclusive doors.
»»
WITHIN THE CURRENT MARKET, there has been a high demand for coloured doors and Force 8 has been the first company to think about developing a design that combines two colours on to a contemporary door. The Zermatt Decadence door is the first of its kind that features an offset groove, and this adds uniqueness to the design.
Stainless steel hardware from Force 8 can added to the overall design as this complements the aluminium smooth finish and the colour scheme which can be used to enhance the kerb appeal of a home.
One of the recent developments by Force 8 is the aluminium smooth finish that features on all the decadence composite doors, giving the look of an aluminium door with the added thermal benefits of a composite door.

THE RESIDENCE COLLECTION ARE experiencing an increase in trade enquiries, thanks in no small part to the integrated nature of the profiles and glazing beads, along with product availability in single lengths. It’ s also a system that’ s supported by one of the strongest marketing programmes in the sector.
With 15 different bead and system combinations, customers are able to make each job bespoke to the needs of their discerning homeowners, whilst minimising their respective stockholding. The single length ordering for main profiles across R2, R7 and R9 is supported by a 4 length per pack
quantity of glazing bead in the form of 28mm square, decorative and a unique heritage staff bead, along with the triple glazing variants of 44mm square and decorative.
With relatively low start-up costs along with the clever profile and glazing bead integration, it’ s proving to be the perfect supplementary system for fabricators looking to make a higher margin. Customers such as Window Tech Trade have not only begun on their Residence journey but have actively changed their business model to solely focus on The Residence Collection.
