QUALITY STANDARDS BRING POSITIVE RESULTS
»»THE QUALITY STANDARDS OF THE
Ambience range from TuffX have once again
inspired consumer investment.
In one specific extension project the Ambi
Neutral product option was selected due to
its thermal properties as well as the aesthetic
which heightened the overall finished look.
With consumers continuing to invest to
add value and year round living space, the
Ambience range of thermally efficient, easy
maintenance, solar controlled products is
generating increased sales and referral business
for the company’s customers.
Large orangery style extensions still remain
popular and as shown in one particular project,
it was to be an integral part of the home that
would be used as the kitchen. A number of
aspects therefore needed careful consideration
by the TuffX customer, including optimum use
of light and varying temperature changes that
would occur both internally and externally.
For many customers the broad selection in
the Ambience range greatly improves business
opportunities as the end user can make informed
decisions about the varying performances of the
glass, which have all been developed to overcome
restrictions caused by weather extremes.

TACKLING WOLF RUN FOR NEONATAL CHARITY
»»A TRAGIC EVENT HAS INSPIRED
two departments at Liniar to team up to take
part in an “extreme” off-road running event in
April to raise money for a worthy cause.
Liniar’s Design & Development and
Marketing teams are joining forces to tackle
the Wolf Run, a 10km course featuring a series
of man-made and natural obstacles, in order
to raise funds for the Royal Derby Hospital’s
Neonatal unit.
Winter Wolfe Gaskin, grandson of Liniar’s
Design & Development Director, Adrian ‘Reg’
Redshaw, sadly passed away just one day after
his birth in October last year. Despite their
heart-breaking loss Adrian’s daughter, Nicola,
and her partner, Dean Gaskin, were full of
praise for the incredible care and support they
received from the hospital staff and have since
raised more than £3,000 for their ‘Support
The Baby Unit Fund’ appeal.
The story touched the hearts of everyone
at Liniar - so when Nikki Dunbar, Design &
Marketing Co-ordinator, came across an event
called the Winter Wolf Run, Adrian and his
colleagues eagerly agreed to sign up to the
spring challenge. A total of 14 Liniar staff will
take part on Saturday, April 9th – just days
before this year’s FIT Show in Telford.

team for the Wolf Run, go to the Virgin
