» INDUSTRY-LEADING
PVCu systems supplier VEKA
UK has launched a brand new
specification guide providing
manufacturers, installers and
specifiers with comprehensive
information on all the
products within the VEKA UK
portfolio.
For a brand that is world
renowned for both its heritage
and its commitment to
innovation, the timing of the
launch is particularly apt; it
coincides with the global VEKA
Group’s 50th anniversary, and a
cutting edge new www.veka.co.uk
website.
Marketing Director Dawn
Stockell explains: “Here at VEKA
UK, we know our products are
perfect for every project, because
they are tested to all expected
quality and safety accreditations -
but more importantly - they must
meet our own exceptionally high
standards.
“Furthermore, as a customer-
centric company, having the
‘perfect product’ is just one part
of the service; the second part
is presenting all that product
information within the ideal
package, and that’s exactly what
we’ve done with both our new
specification guide and the new
VEKA website. These resources
have made it even easier to specify
our industry-leading PVCu
systems.
“The guide’s combination of
line drawings, photographs of
products in situ, test reports and
results, alongside foil options,
specification and sizing - with
real life case studies - mean the
reader has the information and
the inspiration needed to perfect
every project.
“The guide is over 100 pages
and contains everything you need
to know about all systems and
products within the VEKA, Halo
and Imagine brand ranges. From
in-depth technical data, technical
drawings, and performance
results, to information about our
technical support services.
“And, for those that prefer
a ‘pick and mix’ approach,
individual pages can be
downloaded by product through
the new veka.co.uk site, so

customers can effectively put
together a bespoke reference guide
for their most-used systems.
“VEKA UK systems offer
immense yet intelligent choice. In
developing the Variations colour
range, we not only focused on
getting the colour and texture
of every foil just right, we also
looked at how we could deliver
these choices with swift lead times
that work for your project. It
may be a small detail - but one
that means we carry the largest
UK stock holding covering 4000
SKUs.”

“The Best Vertical Slider Out There”
» POLYFRAME HAS
upgraded its extensive portfolio
of PVCu products with the
introduction of the new Imagine
Vertical Sliding Sash from
VEKA. The move will bring
new sales opportunities for
Polyframe customers who want
to make the most of the rising
demand for vertical sliding sash
windows.
Richard Lee, PVCu category
director at Polyframe, explains:
“Vertical Sliders now account for
around 10% of the market, with
share increasing year on year.
We’re very pleased to add the
VEKA Imagine VS to our range
– it’s the best vertical slider out
there as it captures all of the key
design features of a traditional
timber window, combined with
the practicality and performance
of a modern PVCu window.”
The Imagine Vertical Slider
is available in a range of eight
popular express colours on a 10
day lead-time and a number of
bespoke foil options. There is
also a choice of four standard
furniture colours from Fab &

Fix. The range is available across
the UK.
Strong and secure, the VEKA
VS delivers fantastic energy
efficiency with A-rating as
standard. It is weather tested to
BS6375 Part 1 & 2, whilst also
achieving the slim sightlines that
modern homeowners desire.
Polyframe is also able to offer
an upgrade to PAS24 enhanced
security, giving the homeowner
complete peace of mind.
Designed to be as fitter-
friendly as possible, Polyframe
installers have been impressed
with a number of innovative
features. For example, its flush
fitting outerframe sits neatly
against the existing plaster
line to eliminate the need for
notching or trimming the plaster
– thus saving time and money.
Imagine’s hallmark characteristic
is its outer balance chamber,
which is co-extruded in black
on all colour combinations. This
makes a striking design feature
and also means there’s no need
for painting which improves the
look of the product and gives a
durable and consistent finish.
The VEKA Vertical Slider
is available with the option of
a mechanically jointed deep
bottom rail. There are optional
plant-on and run-through sash
horns for a traditional look, or
the window can be specified
without horns for a more
contemporary style.
Polyframe is part of Customade
Group, which operates
nationwide and employs 1100
people in multiple manufacturing
sites across the UK.
