Robin Squibb, Clearview’s Director, said: “Aluminium is a growth part of our business and we see Stellar as the system to take us to the next level.” Robin first saw Stellar at the FIT Show and he was immedi- ately impressed by what he saw. “It’s a system that’s been designed from scratch, so the aesthetics, slim sightlines, product choice and overall product quality is superb.” Apart from the system itself, Robin says the fact it’s from Epwin Window Systems was a big plus too. “We’ve been fabricating Opti- ma from Profile 22 for a couple of years so we know from experience the exceptional quality of product and service you can expect.” Clearview Glaziers is based in Peterborough and works in the domestic, trade and commercial sectors. It has a strong online presence to support its sales and marketing activity and has two websites, www.clearviewglaziers. com, which has a domestic focus and www.clearviewbuyonline. co.uk, which is aimed at the trade and DIY sectors. As Robin says, Stellar is a system that has been designed from the ground up. It is aimed at the retail and light commercial sectors and has everything those sectors de- mand. For example, it has the slim- mest sightlines on the market – it’s at least 30% slimmer than the main competing systems and has a 12% larger glass area. Plus, it’s the only system on the market to offer a fully flush casement window too. The system has also been designed to be simple and easy to manufacture and install. For example, there’s a unique patent-pending pre-gasketed system that saves up to 20% on fabrication time. There are also patent-pending knock-in beads that speed up glazing and leave a clean gasket line on the inside. Already being described as a game-changer for the aluminium sector, Stellar opens up the do- mestic market for installers with a system specifically designed for UK homes. And Clearview Gla- ziers is one of the first fabricators to seize this competitive advan- tage by www.stellaraluminium. co.uk MERCURY GLAZING ADDS SPECTUS FLUSH CASEMENT WINDOW TO ITS RANGE Gloucestershire-based trade fabricator Mercury Glazing has just added Spectus’ flush casement window to its growing product range. Steve Cross, Director at Mercu- ry Glazing said: “We are one of the UK’s biggest Spectus vertical slider manufacturers and the flush casement window is the perfect complementary product to the Spectus vertical slider range which Mercury manufac- tures, making the company a credible partner for heritage-style windows.” The Spectus flush casement window mimics the traditional appearance of period properties, whilst offering superb energy efficiency. Aesthetically, it offers the heritage looks of a nine- teenth century window that sits flush within its frame and is vir- tually indistinguishable from the timber equivalent. With a choice of bevelled outside and bevelled or sculptured options for the in- side along with mechanical joint- ing of the sash and deep bottom rails, the Spectus flush casement is fast becoming the window of choice for conservation, heritage and modern properties alike. A choice of colour options from the Spectrum colour palette are available too. But behind the pe- riod looks there is a 21st century window with no compromise on the thermal efficiency, security and low maintenance benefits. It all means the window offers an unbeatable combination for even the most sensitive of refurbish- ments. The flush casement window will be manufactured by Mercu- ry’s skilled and experienced team in its state-of-the-art Gloucester factory, guaranteeing a quality result every time. Customers will also have the reassurance of Mercury’s commitment to a level of customer service that aims to build a long-term relationship.
