Carl F Groupco Stars
With New Cylinder
The latest own brand hardware to be developed by Carl F Groupco
is the CFG3* cylinder. Produced in response to demand for a
cylinder which meets 3* accreditation for TS 007, the Kitemarked
product achieves PAS 24 and is accredited by Secured by Design.
Commenting on the
latest manufacturing
investment by Carl F
Groupco, Sales Director, Norman Berrill,
said:
“The TS 007 standard can
be achieved either by using
a 2 star handle (such as the
Hoppe PAS 24 High Security
Handle) alongside a 1 star
cylinder, or by using a 3
star cylinder alongside any
handle style.
“Offering a 3 star cylinder
gives the fabricator an alter-
native approach to achieving the standard – it is an
option that, depending on
the handle used, can also be
more cost-effective.
“The launch of own brand
lines is part of our onestop shop philosophy that
is designed
to ensure we offer comprehensive product choice and
take the pain out of product
sourcing.”
The cylinder, which carries
a full 10 year warranty, features Anti-Drill, Snap, Plug,
Pick and Bump, and is available in brass and nickel.

Ultraframe – The Future
Of The Solid Roof
Unveiled At FIT Show
Market leading roof manufacturer
Ultraframe will once again use the
FIT Show to reveal its latest product innovation - Livinroof – the roof
system that directly targets the solid
replacement roof market and goes
head-to-head with other systems
in the market. But as you’d expect
from the market leading roof manufacturer – the real advantage in
this roof system is the simplicity of
installation and its flexibility in design to enable the pitch to be easily
varied.
This innovation along with realROOF, unveiled at last year’s FIT Show, coupled with
Ultraframe’s existing range of roofs will
ensure that Ultraframe network partners can
meet the needs of every type of home extension project – from a home mover looking to refurbish an existing conservatory, a
family that needs extra space plus the thermal performance of Loggia Prestige right
through to traditional extensions requiring
a solid roof. The FIT Show will once again
demonstrate that Ultraframe is shaping the
future of the conservatory industry.
Commercial director Joe Martoccia explains the strategy for unveiling Livinroof
at FIT Show: “without question we have
the most comprehensive and technically
excellent roof offering in the market place
– indeed, the range of roofs available can
meet the needs of most single storey extensions or refurbishment projects. Critically
we want to showcase the simplicity in
which a Livinroof can be installed using the
same skills, and therefore the same installation team, as a traditional glazed Classic
Imagine the
perfect Bi-Fold
Door System – no
compromises
The VEKA UK Group has further demonstrated its
position as the industry leader in PVC-U systems with
the unveiling of the innovative ‘Imagine’ Bi-Fold Door.
roof from Ultraframe. As with everything
designed by Ultraframe we want to ensure
that our network partners can maximise the
profit potential of every installation and limit the need to bring in sub-contractors.”
Ultraframe will be demonstrating the
ease and speed of installation of Livinroof at the FIT Show – Hall 1, stand
number 130.
The technical experts
at The VEKA UK Group
chose to go back to the
drawing board with this
product and ‘re-imagine’
what we have come to
think of as a standard
Bi-Fold Door.
The official launch, following the FIT Show, comes
after a successful appearance
at Fensterbau.
Sales and Marketing Director, Colin Torley explains:
“The new Bi-Fold was on
display at Fensterbau and
visitors to the event were
very impressed; we received
some extremely positive
feedback.
“The Imagine Bi-Fold Door
has been designed in the UK,
for the UK market and our
Technical Team is extremely
proud of it. The system has
been designed ‘from the
ground up’ so there are no
compromises. When it comes
to components, everything
has been newly designed
specifically for this product.
“The result is a technically-advanced bespoke product
- available in numerous different configurations - with
custom-designed hardware
from ERA housed neatly
within the profile.”
