Ultraframe is Building Back Better at FIT
Ultraframe has announced that it will be showcasing and launching its latest innovations in roofing technology at the FIT Show , which takes place at the NEC from 25th – 27th September . The Clitheroe-based industry pioneer will be launching a number of new innovations that will help installers and builders to create the ‘ Grand Designs ’ demanded by today ’ s discerning homeowners , as well as showcasing its recently launched range of contemporary Garden Rooms . The products will be on display on a large , prominent stand where the Ultraframe team will be on hand to explain more about the latest additions to their product portfolio .
Ultraframe Marketing Director , Alex Hewitt , said : “ After the restrictions of the last 12 months , we are thrilled to be able to interact with the industry on a face-to-face basis at The FIT Show . While it ’ s been a challenging time for us all , it has also been a busy period for most of us in the industry , and we have seen new trends emerging as consumer ’ s needs have changed during the pandemic and beyond . We have already provided a fantastic solution to the huge demand for a space in which to work from home with our range of Garden Rooms , which people will be able to see and touch for the first time at the show .
“ We will also be launching a number of exciting new roofing systems and innovations which our R & D Team have been working hard on over the last year . It ’ s no exaggeration to say that these systems are groundbreaking innovations that will change the way that installers and builders add space to homes forever , and we ’ re extremely excited to share them with visitors to our stand .”
In addition to the new systems on display , Ultraframe will also be showcasing important enhancements to current systems , as well as demonstrating the further bolstering of its already-impressive marketing support offering .
Nickie West , FIT Show Event Director , said : “ Ultraframe is a brand leader in every sense of the word . The fact that Alex and the team have selected FIT Show as the launchpad for the next generation of Ultraframe products is testament to the power of live events within the wider marketing mix .
“ Our visitors will be able to see several products for the first time at FIT Show , and the new Ultraframe Garden Rooms will sit within our brand new Outdoor Living feature . We have developed the Outdoor Living feature to reflect the growing demand for products that enhance homeowner outdoor spaces and we ’ re excited that Ultraframe will be part of it .”

In addition to offering stunning good looks and class-leading performance , the Ultraroof solid roof system from Ultraframe also offers complete peace of mind thanks to the reassurance of LABC and LABSS certification , along with components that are BBA approved .
Approvals by these bodies means that a project featuring an Ultraroof is much easier for the builder or installer , as much of the red tape is already taken care of , and they can also reassure the homeowner that the roof system being used is independently accredited to perform past minimum regulatory requirements . Ultraframe Marketing Director , Alex Hewitt , said : “ The BBA Agrément Certificate is a mark of excellence based on rigorous national and European standards that validate a construction product ’ s quality , technical capabilities and uniqueness . This is a mark that is known to many homeowners – especially those interested in home improvements – and so is a great selling point for installers and builders when explaining the merits of Ultraroof to a homeowner . Ultraframe has worked closely with the BBA for over 25 years since our Glass Roof first gained the accreditation . More recently we have worked with the BBA to approve our Ultrapanel technology which we also use on house roofs and I am delighted that Ultraroof is now the only solid roof on the market to feature BBA approved Ultrapanel technology .

This makes things much simpler for our customers

“ We are also proud to hold both LABC and LABSS approval for England / Wales and Scotland respectively . These approvals allow building control departments right across England , Wales & Scotland to quickly and easily access the technical information they need about Ultraroof when
Webinar Attracts Record Numbers
Since January this year , home improvement expert , Ultraframe , has been running a series of webinars to help fabricators , installers and builders learn more about the products and support available to them . 75 installers - a record number of attendees - booked onto one of the April Ultraroof webinars , and were able to learn about the popular tiled roof system from Ultraframe technical expert , Phil Wharf .
The webinars are simple to access via a link sent by email and last approximately one hour . Webinar attendees can then watch a live training session from members of considering a Building Regulation ( or Scottish equivalent ) application . This makes things much simpler for our customers and allows the application to be fast tracked thanks to the completion certificate which is only issued following satisfactory inspections made as part of a valid Building Regulation application by Local Authority Building Control teams .”
