STELLAR IN COLOUR
Stellar, the ground-break-
ing new aluminium window and
door system from Epwin Window
Systems, was purposely designed
to set a new standard in alumin-
ium window and door design
for the 21st century. In every
aspect, including colour, it has
delivered.
Stellar is available in a range of
gloss levels, giving customers an
outstanding choice. In addition
to stocked colours, customers
can choose any RAL colour or
dual colour combination. Stellar
colour uses a polyester powder
coat that has been certified to the
Qualicoat coastal standard, which
surpasses European requirements
and delivers powerful durability.
And the coating process uses a
chrome-free pre-treatment, which
means it is already compliant with
new regulations that come into
effect in 2021 and makes it more
environmentally friendly.
Stellar’s standard colours are
Signal White (RAL9003), Anthra-
cite Grey (RAL7016) and the dual
colour Anthracite Grey / Signal
White (RAL7016 / RAL9003), all in
a flat matt finish.
Non-standard colours are Cream
(RAL9001), Agate Grey (RAL7038),
Slate Grey (RAL7015), Choco-
late Brown (RAL8017), Jet Black
(RAL9005), available in a flat
matt finish, and Anthracite Grey
(RAL7016) in a textured finish.
Stellar’s colour offering is part of
an exceptional package of benefits
that add real value to fabricators
and installers’ portfolios. For exam-
ple, Stellar’s fully flush casement
window has no stepped frame
inside or out, making it a first for
the aluminium sector. The standard
flush casement window has at least
30% slimmer sightlines than com-
petitor windows and delivers a glass
area that’s around 12% larger.

SAGE GREEN
WITH ENVY
Freefoam, a leading manu-
facturer of a wide range of inno-
vative products for the building
industry in the UK, Ireland and
Mainland Europe, has responded
to market demand and feedback
from customers and added the
popular Sage Green to its Double
Shiplap cladding range. Already
available in the Weatherboard style
cladding, the natural, soft shade
with grey undertones is subtle
yet stylish and suitable for any
location, from rural countryside,
coastal situations and urban city
environments.
Marketing Manager Louise
Sanderson explained: “From new
build developments, home reno-
vation for extensions and dormers
and also for caravans, lodges,
home offices and summer houses.
Colour is an important factor and
we
find that
consumers are
particularly attracted to
more natural subtle shades.”
The Double Shiplap and Weath-
erboard cladding are part of the
Fortex Range. A high quality, PVC
product that features an attractive
embossed wood effect texture in
ten subtle, traditional and contem-
porary colours. With a wide range
of matching fitting trims to create
a neat professional co-ordinated
finish the Fortex range is a pop-
ular choice for retrofit and new
build projects.
PVC-U cladding requires mini-
mal maintenance once installed, a
major benefit for property owners
and a compelling feature for any
property developer or public
sector housing provider. With sig-
nificant environmental credentials,
being awarded an A+ rating from
the Building Research Establish-
ment’s (BRE) ‘Green Guide To
Specification’ when installed with
standard components, the range
makes a real alternative to timber
and fibre cement products.

CONSERVATORY OUTLET GOES EXTREME
Leading UK fabricator, Con-
servatory Outlet Ltd, has launched
its ground-breaking new Solid
Core Door Collection.
The team officially unveiled
the Extreme Solid Core Door to
its UK-wide network of retailers
at a launch event in Clitheroe on
Wednesday 3rd July.
The product has been heralded
for its robust 16 layers of laminat-
ed timber and its unique auto-en-
gage locking system, designed
to both prevent the slab from
warping and to combat the threat
of break-ins.
With 16 design options, and
over 20 colours to choose from,
the Extreme Solid Core Door is
set to rival key competitor offer-
ings in the market by offering
unrivalled personalisation and
styling options to homeowners
across the UK.
Conservatory Outlet is also
proud to declare that the Extreme
Solid Core Door has been exten-
sively tested to meet the require-
ments of ‘Secured by Design’
– the Police-recognised flagship
initiative which combines the
principles of ‘designing out crime’
with physical security.
From an efficiency standpoint,
the door will see home owners
make significant savings during
colder months, with each product
designed to lock in warmth from
the inside, minimising draughts
and cold spots.
Michael Giscombe, Managing Di-
rector at Conservatory Outlet, said
he was delighted to finally be able
to bring the product to market:
“We identified the need for a
door that offered the robustness
and stylings of top-of-the-range
models, but at an affordable price.
Our ethos with this product was
to combine style with function-
offering unrivalled
‘ personalisation
and styling options
to homeowners
across the UK
’
ality, we wanted them to go
hand in hand. The Extreme Solid
Core Door does exactly that, and
we’re thrilled to be able to offer
it exclusively to our network of
retailers.”
