With the UK government targeting 1.5 million new homes over the next five years , housebuilders are looking for reliable partners to meet evolving regulations and market demands . Keylite Roof Windows is poised to support this growth with innovative solutions designed to address industry challenges .

Recent data highlights the obstacles ahead , with the National House Building Council ( NHBC ) reporting a 23 per cent year-on-year decline in new home registrations

for Q2 2024 . While there was a 34 per cent increase from the previous quarter , these figures emphasise the need for accelerated efforts to meet housing targets .

In response to these challenges , the government has implemented significant reforms , including an overhaul of the planning system and a £ 3 billion investment to unlock housing and stimulate growth . These initiatives aim to streamline processes and encourage development across the nation .

Amid these developments , Keylite has become the preferred supplier for numerous national and regional housebuilders , offering market-leading products that simplify compliance with updated Building Regulations in England and Wales .

Thermal bridging is a key concern for housebuilders , as it can lead to heat loss and reduced energy efficiency . Keylite tackles this with its patented Integrated

Expanding Thermal Collar , which ensures the thermal integrity of the window . This innovation eliminates the need for an extra thermal collar , helping meet Part L requirements , enhancing airtightness , and improving Psi values for SAP calculations .

Additionally , Keylite ’ s pre-fitted Flick- Fit Brackets simplify the positioning of windows from box to roof in just minutes , supporting a more seamless and efficient fitting process for housebuilders .

Lewis Scott , Keylite ’ s National Account Manager , said : “ Despite ongoing economic pressures , we remain committed to improving efficiency and strengthening relationships with our housebuilder partners . Meeting the government ’ s housing targets will take real investment , and we ’ re proud to support the industry with innovative , time-saving solutions .

“ Keylite has always been proactive , combining traditional values with a hands-on , professional approach . We focus on generating

leads , driving sales , and offering honest , expert advice to our customers .”
