LINIAR OPEN DAYS
WOW CUSTOMERS
Systems house Liniar opened its
doors to customers for two days
in March to launch a range of new
products and show off the revamped
showroom at its Derbyshire HQ.

Most readers will be familiar with the Zoom
conservatory roof system, which Roger purchased in full last year. Now rebranded Liniar
Zoom, the roof is available as a complete
kit for Liniar custome rs. Perfectly colour
matched with Liniar’s window and door
range, the Liniar Zoom roof provides Liniar
customers with a single point of guarantee
for their entire conservatory installation.
And brand new design features such as the
innovative EnergyPlus rigid twin walled top
cap and Liniar’s slide-on end caps mean the
Liniar Zoom roof is not only more energy
efficient, it’s extremely simple to fit. They’ve
even provided a video to show just how simple – take a look at Liniar’s YouTube channel
to watch it at http://bit.ly/LiniarRoofVideo.
With a new box gutter assembly including
a full suite of clip-in, sealant-free adaptors,
the Liniar Zoom show roof drew much attention at the open days.
As did the Liniar bi-folding door system.
Liniar was the first company to launch a
bespoke PVCu bi-fold range system in 2010,
and they’ve now raised the bar even higher
with their brand new ModLok™ version.
Energy efficiency has also been key during
development, as the door system utilises the
Liniar EnergyPlus outer frame and sash and
is also triple-glazing ready. For the first time,
a PVCu bi-fold can offer consumers a real
alternative to aluminium, being perfectly colour matched to the rest of the Liniar range.
Installers also get additional support, with a
new Liniar bi-fold installation video at http://
bit.ly/LiniarBiFoldVideo.
The Liniar team updated customers on
many other developments to the range and
introduce the newest Liniar team member,
‘Mark II’ – Liniar’s cyclic testing robot who
will enable Liniar to put their new products
to the test before launch.
Finally, Liniar revealed its new range of
marketing support tools for fabricators and
installers, including a full luxury consumer
brochure, POS items, installation guides,
videos and the online media centre.
Photographs from the open days can be
seen on Liniar’s Facebook page (LiniarUK)
and the team can be contacted at www.
liniar.co.uk or by calling 01332 883900.

TWR Trade Frames has
launched TWR Bifolds, which
will focus solely on supplying installers with bi-folding
doors and information related
to the product.
TWR MD Terry Richardson
comments: “The bi-folding
door market remains a lucrative opportunity for installers
and we wanted to use our
14 years of experience and
bi-folding door expertise to
provide a go-to resource for
this product.
“Aluminium bi-folding
doors are a specialist product
for us and over the years we
have invested in a new bifold production line, a survey
supply and support service
and in 2012 opened our
own powder coating facility,
allowing us to colour bi-fold
door sets 30% quicker than
most fabricators.”
To support the launch, a
new fully-responsive and
mobile-optimised website
has gone live, and a series of
videos will be uploaded to
the website.
TWR Bifolds has brought in
a new National Sales Co-ordinator, Tracey Ogden, who
will head up TWR Bifolds,
administer sales enquiries
and provide technical product support to customers.
