PRO INSTALLER MARCH 2016
FIT SHOW 2016
TRUFIT FOR FREE
Edgetech UK, the leading voice for energy
efficient windows, goes live at FIT Show. “It’s a
busy stand,” says Marketing Manager Charlotte
Davies, “with lots of action to make it really
interesting and interactive for visitors.”
»»At the centre of the action is
TruTruck, Edgetech’s mobile
demonstration van, where live
demos of all the products will be
performed every day.
Visitors will see windows
installed using TruFit® professional
expanding foam installation tape
and the glass protection system
TruShield® being applied and
tested. Manufacturing insulated
glass units with Super Spacer®
will be shown too demonstrating
how easy and cost effective the
flexible foam system is.
“Edgetech’s tongue-in-cheek
gun amnesty is on the stand.
Here installers can swap their old
silicone guns for a FREE roll of
TruFit. It will be great to see how
many pioneering installers will
take the opportunity to give this
alternative fitting method a try.”
Also on the stand will be
Dealership Plus experts to go
through the benefits of the awardwinning scheme. It’s often easier
to discuss things face to face,
and the FIT Show is a perfect
opportunity to do this. Visitors
can discuss their individual
requirements to see how much
time and money they can save
on crucial services from the most
comprehensive support initiative
the industry has ever seen.
“We are really excited about
this year’s exhibition. Edgetech
has something to offer for every
part of the supply chain from IGU
manufacturers, to fabricators and
installers. We want to show visitors
the expanded range of valueadding products and services,”
adds Charlotte. “And being able to
demonstrate how everything works
on the stand should make it an
interesting and worthwhile part of
their FIT Show experience.”
You can find Edgetech in Hall 3

TAPE HELPS TO ACHIEVE PASSIVHAUS
STANDARD IN AWARD WINNING BUILDING
»»High performance foam
sealing tape has helped
a specialist timber frame
building achieve Passivhaus
low energy standards.
Bespoke fenestration
and composite windows
company, JLH Bros of
Kenilworth, used ISOCHEMIE BLOCO-ONE tape
to seal doors and window
installations in the awardwinning Whitwell House
scheme on the north shore
of Rutland Water.
Constructed using a mix
of traditional and modern
STAND 380
building materials, JLH
used high quality doors and
windows from an Austrian
supplier, with the excellent
U values of the super
insulated frames being
matched by the innovative
thermal, sound reducing and
weatherproofing properties
of ISO- Chemie BlocoOne.
Iso-Chemie Bloco-One
tape, which comes with
a 10 year performance
guarantee and provides
up to 70% cost savings
when compared to three
other component systems,
enables windows and
doors to be quickly and
easily sealed from inside
the building. This avoids
the need to use time
consuming and costly
external access systems like
scaffolding and ladders and
provides guaranteed high
performance sealing for the
lifetime of the window.
Quick and easy-to-apply,
the self-adhesive ISO-
Stand

Chemie Bloco-One provides
a high performance seal
for window and door joints
up to 30mm wide and is
impermeable to driving rain
at a minimum of 1,000 Pa,
66% higher reliability than
most conventional joint
sealing tapes.
JLH Bros continue to
use ISO-Chemie tapes on
all window installations
to create a perfect,
energy rated seal, even
in uneven Cotswold
stone constructions, for
example.
Passivhaus or ‘Passive
House’ is the fastest
growing energy performance
standard in the world and is
based on achieving excellent
thermal performance and
exceptional airtightness with
mechanical ventilation.
The success of the
Whitwell House project in
achieving these aims was
recognised when it was
awarded the prestigious
ProCon 2015 Sustainable
Development Award.
