SWEET 16

Provide your sales team with a serious sales tool... and give your customers the confidence to buy
Like most business services, not every Deposit and Guarantee Insurance provider is the same. You can give your sales team the bare minimum... or the best in the market. It’ s your call
CPA’ s Deposit and Guarantee Insurance is for sales professionals who want to maximise every opportunity. Your team can benefit from:
· Training Seminar · A full interactive briefing on how to extract every benefit from their new sales tool.
FENSA staff celebrated in style as the industry’ s leading Competent Person Scheme kicked off its 16th anniversary celebrations at its London offices.
FENSA, the largest and longest established Competent Person Scheme in the replacement window and door industry, this year celebrates 16 years of serving installers and homeowners. The GGF Group company has been operating since April 2002.
Set up by the Glass and Glazing Federation, FENSA commenced operations following a request from Government to regulate the market for replacement doors and windows in England and Wales. Since coming on the scene as the original Competent Person Scheme, it has become the largest in the sector with almost 6000 companies self-certifying their compliance under the Building Regulations without the requirement for additional inspections from Local Authority Building Control, saving homeowners time and expense.
The loyalty shown by FENSA Members likely springs in part from the company’ s commitment to different initiatives( such as the Installer of the Year at the G-Awards and The Master Fitter Challenge at the FIT
Show) and more recently its investment in business support tools such as the FENSA Knowledge Hub which provides market information to installers on their installation work, compliance and customer service.
Another major milestone approaches
Since 2002, FENSA has issued more than 12 million homeowner certificates and is now approaching the 13 millionth installation to be registered through its scheme. Plans are afoot to reward and celebrate the homeowner and installer of the 13 millionth installation and more will be revealed about this in the coming months.

Spectus mechanically jointed VS takes the best in class window to the next level

Trade fabricator and vertical slider specialist Warwick Specialist Window Division has become the latest fabricator to add the Spectus Mechanically Jointed Vertical Slider to its portfolio. Aaron Fountain, Managing Director of Warwick said:“ We’ re proud to have been manufacturing the Spectus Vertical Slider since 2001 and recognise it as the best in class. The mechanically jointed version takes the window to the next level.”
Spectus’ Mechanically Jointed Vertical Slider was launched last year and has received plaudits ever since. It builds on the unparalleled authenticity of the standard Spectus Vertical Slider with the addition of full mechanical jointing to the sash and outer frame. The window was already renowned as the PVC-U window that changes planning officers’ minds and with the introduction of the mechanically jointed version there can be few objections left – although, as Aaron says, it’ s no longer seen as a window for heritage installations alone.
