EXCELLENCE AS STANDARD
WELCOMES PRO-FITTER AS
ITS LATEST TRADE PARTNER
Epwin Window Systems’ flagship
membership programme,
Excellence as Standard, has
partnered with trail-blazing
industry training initiative Pro-
Fitter. The partnership means
Excellence as Standard members
will be able to benefit from
Pro-Fitter training status.
From day-to-day busi-
ness operations through
to product manufacturing,
processes and installations,
Excellence as Standard is a
culture that permeates every
level of a business. From
the moment a member signs
up, they receive continuous
guidance and support to
help them excel in every
area of their business oper-
ations. Aside from the train-
ing element in the form of
the EAS Academy, the sup-
port includes: access to the
quality products under the
Epwin Windows Systems’
brands, bespoke training
to give additional expertise
when required, comprehen-
sive marketing support to
add extra weight to market-
ing activities and a dedicat-
ed team to provide tailored
support as needed.
The programme gives
homeowners peace of mind
that all aspects of their
project will be delivered to
the highest quality industry
standard and thus gives
members a clear competitive
advantage.
Pro-Fitter is a fully
GQA-accredited and recog-
nised training centre. It pro-
vides hands-on and class-
room-based training in a
variety of products, includ-
ing removal, replacement
and finishing touches. On
completion of a Pro-Fitter
training course, an individ-
ual installer will be listed in
both the Pro-Fitter and GQA
directories and given a GQA
certificate and a photo ID
card for identification.

It’s all there – Panoramic
Group launches biggest
showroom yet, at Kettering
Fast-growing Pano-
ramic Group has launched
its biggest and most prod-
uct-packed showroom with
the opening of the extended
and fully refitted unit in
Kettering, Northants.
The new facility not
only showcases the most
comprehensive collection of
the ever-expanding Pano-
ramic range but also many
variants and style options
to give both trade custom-
ers and homeowners the
best experience of what the
Group has to offer.
The new showroom is now
one of nine run by Panoram-
ic and its trading partners
covering the whole of the
UK but, as Group Managing
Director Michael Connor
explained, such a fast-grow-
ing product range needs ever
more space to show them all
fully at their best.
“With recent acquisitions
such as Welglaze PVC-U
windows and doors and the
former Alumen aluminium
patio doors and windows,
as well as our new IGU
manufacturing division,
we really have one of the
widest ranges available,” he
said.
The new Kettering
showroom is at:
Unit 1 Bushacre Court
Garrard Way
Telford Way Ind Estate
