LUMI POD’ S A SHOW- STOPPER AT BRISTOL TRIAL

»»
A NEW BESPOKE DISPLAY POD FOR the radical Lumi window and door range is being trialled by approved dealer Crystal Clear Bristol with a view to rolling it out across the system’ s retailer network.
The Pod, which is already proving the centre of attention in the retailer’ s showroom, is styled directly after manufacturer Apeer’ s striking exhibition stand with the specific aim of targeting leads generated by the company’ s busy schedule of lifestyle exhibitions.
“ So many homeowners are knocked out by Lumi at consumer shows wherever we go,”
said Apeer Marketing Manager Linda Tomb,“ Now, they can step into a showroom and pick up on it immediately, with not only the same products but the same look and style.”
As MD James Mizen explained, the Pod was integral to the move into Lumi:
“ We knew straight away this was something we wanted to sell and we signed up for the Pod while we were there.
“ We have the Lumi window, the door and the new glass entrance door in the unit and most people who come into the showroom comment on it and love the idea.”

PAS1188 CERTIFICATE IS TWICE AS NICE FOR WATERGATE FLOOD SOLUTIONS LTD

»»
HALO CUSTOMER Watergate Flood Solutions Ltd has been certified with the recently-revised PAS1188 BSI Kitemark for Flood Protection Products for its composite flood door.
Watergate – based in Hebburn, Tyne & Wear – spent 18 months honing its design and subjecting products to rigorous testing to achieve the accreditation, with support from VEKA Group.
The anti-flood specialist – which fabricates up to 50 doors every week – made the switch to Halo profile in 2015, and has been using its outer frames exclusively ever since. The most recent PAS1188 certificate will be the company’ s second, having already received one for its PVC-U door models.
Rachael Radcliffe, Business Development Manager for Watergate at VEKA Group said:
“ We’ ve been working closely with Watergate over the past year-and-a-half in trying to achieve the PAS1188 so we are very proud to have been a part of them obtaining this worthy certification. Ensuring the PVC-U profile system that their new products would be used with is of the best possible quality has been paramount throughout, which is why Halo’ s reputation for excellence within the industry
– for flood doors especially – seemed to be the perfect fit.
