PROUD SPONSOR OF INDUSTRY NEWS INDUSTRYNEWS NEW SCHEME WELCOMES FIRST REGISTERED SYSTEMS HOUSE » » CORGI FENESTRATION IS delighted to announce that Liniar is the first systems house to achieve formal registration on its scheme. Chris Mayne, CEO of CORGI Fenestration, commented, “Liniar passed the CORGI Fenestration audit with flying colours and will be the first to display the CORGI Fenestration mark that tells its fabricators, installers and consumers that the business is committed to best practice when it comes to quality products, qualified staff, and the best in customer service. “There will be huge benefits for Liniar’s fabricator network with its Approved Fabricator Scheme also becoming CORGI Fenestration registered. This means that if a fabricator has already achieved Liniar Approved status, it can become CORGI Fenestration registered in its own right through a reduced audit process. “There are also benefits for Liniar’s installers. Any installers who already have existing GQA- awarded qualifications will be recognised by CORGI Fenestration and will be eligible to join the scheme as well. “Liniar installers who become registered and buy Liniar products through a CORGI Fenestration Registered fabricator will be able to offer their customers the assurance of the highest quality throughout the whole supply chain and will be able to carry a CORGI Fenestration branded qualifications card.” www.corgifenestration.co.uk 20 RIDERS, 55 MILES, OVER £11,500 RAISED A team of 20 cycling enthusiasts, ranging from just 8 years old all the way to the eldest participant aged 62, from IG Doors has completed a gruelling 55 mile ride from Brecon to Cardiff Bay in aid of Cancer Research Wales. » » LIAM TAYLOR AT JUST age 8 joined the ride for the last 26 miles and raised over £1,000 in his own right, while Bob Challenger completed the full 55 miles despite not having ridden a bike for over 20 years.
