Following the successful launch of the Bi-Fold Vent in 2025, Glazpart continues its focus on the aluminium sector with the AluVent – a new range of trickle ventilators designed to meet the needs of today’ s market growth in aluminium windows and doors.

Manufactured specifically for aluminium fenestration, the AluVent is versatile with a sleek design that allows it to be frame

or sash mounted, where its low profile sits seamlessly and unobtrusively on the window or door, making it aesthetically pleasing.

The AluVent range is an evolution of Glazpart’ s trickle vent portfolio in response to industry feedback from companies in the aluminium window and door sector – a market that Glazpart is committed to by delivering innovative products. Made from low carbon aluminium, the AluVent extrusions are

produced using partially recycled billet which is certified and fully traceable with up to 25 % recycled aluminium content.

The AluVent is fitted with a foam strip on the inside of the vents closure plate which reduces cold spots, helps seal the rout and improves the noise reduction performance in the closed position.

The vent is designed to be fitted on either a 13mm or 10mm rout height. Available in three sizes, the AluVent’ s performance will meet the background ventilation room rates as defined in building regulations( Approved Document F – means of ventilation). Equivalent Area( EQA) is used instead of free area for the sizing of trickle ventilators as it is a better measure of a ventilator’ s air flow performance.

Among several unique features, the AluVent comes with ingeniously designed profile end caps that clip into the grille, locking it into position and so avoiding

separation from the aluminium profiles( lid or canopy) and allowing for screw fixing to the profile.

With aesthetics in mind, the AluVent is powder coated aluminium with RAL colour matched end caps as well as traditional black and white, which are fitted easily in place without the need for any tools. There is also an unassembled mill finish option so you can powder coat your own specific colour.

Dean Bradley, Glazpart Sales Director commented,“ The Alu- Vent is a welcome addition to our trickle vent range and once again demonstrates our continuous

commitment to the aluminium sector.”

The Aluvent is available for delivery from 3 August 2026, to find out more and get prices:

Headlining the launch are seven brand-new additions to the popular Elegance Collection: Eden, Essence, Eminence, Evoke, Empress, Everest and Endeavour. Developed over an extensive period of in-house design and testing, these are smooth moulded designs that capture the authentic look of real timber – because, unlike printed GRP skins, genuine timber doors don’ t carry an artificial grain effect.

Featuring familiar formats including twin vertical, six-panel and ¾ lite designs, each door delivers the refined, premium finish homeowners expect from traditional timber – without any of the maintenance.

Joining the Edge Collection is the Strata, a striking new style inspired by the acoustic panelling trend currently sweeping

through interior design. Manufactured entirely in-house, the Strata is available in both smooth and grained finishes, giving installers the flexibility to meet a wide range of customer tastes.

Alongside the new door styles, Entrance CDS has developed a brand-new cassette system, Contour, manufactured in-house to exacting standards.

Contour is available in two styles: Contour Classic, complementing a more traditional, refined character, and Contour Modern, suited to contemporary tastes. The Contour Classic will feature on the Elegance Collection, whilst the Contour Modern brings contemporary style to the Galaxy Collection.

Both cassettes deliver style consistency with the doors they are featured on, creating a crisp, premium finish that stands up

to scrutiny from even the most discerning homeowner.

Gregory Kelly, Managing Director of Entrance Composite Door Solutions, commented:“ Every product decision we make is about giving installers a real commercial advantage. Our new Elegance Collection doors, the Strata door, and our new Contour Classic and Contour Modern cassettes are all the result of listening to what the trade actually needs – better products that are easier to fit, with the kind of finish that wins referrals.

“ With these new Elegance designs in particular, we’ ve spent considerable time getting the smooth moulded finish absolutely right, because that’ s what a genuine timber door looks like. It’ s a level of authenticity homeowners notice – and installers can sell on.

“ For installers looking to strengthen their offering with doors that are straightforward to fit and even easier to sell, this latest launch is well worth a closer look – and we’ d be happy to take any enquiries.”
