FLUSH SASH A HIT WITH FABRICATORS
» » SALES OF DURAFLEX’S
flush casement continue to
flourish, with the striking and
incredibly versatile window
solution proving an extremely
popular choice for fabricators,
installers and homeowners alike.
Driven by an increasing demand
within the premium sector,
their stylish Flush Window is
enabling Duraflex fabricators to
explore new opportunities across
retail, new build and commercial
markets.
The window has been
meticulously designed to imitate
the much sought-after traditional
aesthetics of a timber cottage
window; when finished in one of
the heritage foils and paired with
the system houses’ new Georgian
Bar Collection, the resulting kerb-
appeal is undeniable. However,
the Flush is not reserved solely
for use in heritage properties,
this year Duraflex has reported
huge demand for their Flush Sash
across New Build and commercial
sectors; styled in a contemporary
solid colour, it can effectively
replicate the highly desirable
aesthetics of aluminium and
proves an exciting addition to the
iconic Diamond Suite.
Available with either full
mechanical joints for the ultimate
traditional finish, or opt for the
fully welded alternative, a range of
glazing options, extensive choice
of foiled finishes and a stunning
new Georgian Bar collection for
enhanced aesthetics, ensure that
Duraflex’s Flush Window offers
today’s consumers the choice and
versatility they demand.
The performance data is equally
as impressive; the Flush Window
has recently undergone the most
rigorous testing that the industry
has to offer and now holds
BS6375-1 for Extreme Weather
Performance, PAS24 and can
achieve Secured by Design with
both fully welded and mechanical
sash option. In addition, the Flush
window enables night-vent locking
as standard, features Q-lon – the
world’s best weatherseal gasket,
and thanks to it’s fully integrated
design, it sits seamlessly within the
Diamond Suite, alongside a single
and double Flush Door option,
offering a completely suited range
of Flush products that ensure
Duraflex fabricators and installers
maintain a competitive advantage.
With the recent introduction
of a Flush Residential and
Double Door – to complete
the collection, Duraflex will be
launching a stunning suite of
accompanying marketing and
sales support material in January,
to help their fabricators continue
to capitalise on this growing and
profitable market.

New-build farmhouse gets a heritage touch
» » WHEN RTA JOINERY WAS TASKED
with transforming a newbuild farmhouse
in Eastwood, the team turned to renowned
manufacturers Slenderline Glass for help.
Slenderline, which is part of the E.J. Cocker
Group, has seen incredible demand for its
heritage sealed units, and the products were
perfect for RTA.
Combining authentic, heritage aesthetics
with cutting-edge thermal performance,
Slenderline Glass has established itself as the
leading supplier of advanced slimline heritage
units trusted by fabricators, installers and
joiners across the country.
Richard Allen of RTA Joinery, who needed
600 units for the job, commented: “Despite
the farmhouse being a newbuild property, it
needed to be given a traditional look and we
knew that Slenderline Glass’ heritage sealed
units would be perfect to create the desired
effect.
“The accurate design and look of
Slenderline’s traditional slimline glass units
coupled with the modern thermal efficiency
creates a really strong selling point for us.
