Ultraframe has announced a series of significant enhancements to its market leading hup! Building System, delivering greater ease of specification, smoother ordering, and faster on site installation for its pioneering hup! Brick Rail System.
As part of the upgrade, installers can now purchase a wide range of brick slips directly through Ultraframe as part of their
|
hup! order. This integration removes the need for separate suppliers, simplifying specification, streamlining invoicing, and ensuring customers receive exactly the right components for each project.
Alex Hewitt, Marketing Director at Ultraframe, commented:“ Following the launch of our new brick slip rail system, we listened closely to customers who were unsure about calculating the exact quantities of slips needed for their hup! projects. Many also told us they would much prefer to order brick slips using their Ultraframe account, rather than navigating a separate website.
“ We analysed the most requested colours and expanded our range to include smoother, contemporary brick styles that align more closely with modern UK housing stock. These new bricks are 14mm and 15mm instead of 20mm, offering a cleaner aesthetic and a lower cost. Installers can still request bespoke colour matching through our hupbrickslips. co. uk website.”
Alongside the extended brick slip range, Ultraframe has also introduced a major installation improvement. Following extensive on site trials and investment in product development and fire testing,
|
the company has added a new“ helping hand” feature to the back of the rails. This addition, fully fire tested, greatly improves handling during installation and removes the need for a calcium silicate board behind the rails.
This enhancement not only reduces on site labour time but also lowers the overall cost of the hup! kit.
The new brick slip offering will also be available within the upcoming release of Udesign, enabling installers to visualise finishes, configure project details and automatically calculate precise quantities of plan bricks, corner bricks and mortar. The new software release provides designers
|
with increased flexibility, including options for aperture trim finishes or side reveals with or without soldier courses. Brick rails will be configured automatically to suit the chosen aperture detailing, with corner bricks used for corners, reveals and soldier courses.
Colour charts and price lists for the expanded brick slip range are now available on the Ultraframe Trade Website. Brick slips will be delivered to site shortly after the hup! kit on a separate delivery, helping to support efficient workflow on site.
