Great outlook at NFAs yet again
» LEADING COMPOSITE DOOR
manufacturer and PVCu panel supplier Vista
has won the Fabricator/Manufacturer of
the Year award at this year’s 2019 National
Fenestration Awards (NFAs).
The Wirral-based company beat off stiff
competition from 19 others for the prestigious
award and received a huge 46.96% of the vote.
It’s the second time Vista has triumphed at
the NFAs, having picked up the Composite
Doors Manufacturer of the Year for its best-in-
class XtremeDoor range in 2016.
And the company was also nominated in
the Composite and Panel Door Supplier award
in the 2017.
The factory has also seen £750,000 worth
of machinery investment since Vista’s last NFA
triumph, to cope with increasing demand. And,
with Vista set to celebrate its 25th anniversary
next year, the award comes at the perfect time.
Ian Smith, Vista’s Business Development
and Marketing Manager:
“With a big milestone just around the
corner, winning this award is a timely
reminder of our history in the manufacturing
of fenestration products. Our PVCu infill
panels have stood the test of time and are still
going strong and our GRP XtremeDoor is fast
becoming an industry favourite.”

become one of our fastest growing product
lines, as more homeowners move away from
standard white uPVC and look towards the
premium end of the market. in a short space
of time. Ultimately, we wanted a site which
reflected the premium qualities of the Infinity

achieved.”

Mark explains: “I think the reason the
business has not only survived but thrived for
so long is because we are so people focussed.
Feedback from customers and staff has been
key to SWC’s continued growth and success
over the last 30 years, as demonstrated by the
fact that many customers have traded with
SWC since the beginning. SWC supplies
exclusively to the trade, a strategy that has
built trust and loyalty with our customers
