TAKE TRIPLE GLAZING TO THE ULTIMATE LEVEL WITH INTEGRAL BLINDS

Continued from the front page

Extended Delivery Capabilities Across the UK

The market for triple glazing is gradually growing as more and more homeowners recognise the contribution that an extra panel and cavity can make towards reducing their energy use. This ties in with a greater awareness in general of the need to adopt a‘ fabric first’ approach to create the most energy efficient homes.
Adding Uni-Blinds ® integral blinds from Morley Glass into the package gives triple glazed units additional benefits in terms of providing a premium
UKO Group, the umbrella company of UK Doors Online, Trade Window Centre, UKO Glass and UK Rooflights, has committed to further investment across the businesses following a period of huge growth and innovation.
Starting with increasing its transportation fleet, they are supporting their growing delivery network, meeting increasing customer demand, and investing further to upgrade machinery across each of its sites to increase output, and provide even better quality and service to its customers.
This strategic investment will see the addition of new vehicles to the group’ s shading and privacy solution which offers additional performance benefits, especially by making it easier to control glare and UV light transmission within rooms. Integral blinds also offer‘ wow factor’ aesthetic appeal, and they are the only truly viable choice for triple glazed bi-folds, sliding doors and French doors.
The complete range of Uni-Blinds ® integral blinds is available in triple glazed units, from the manual magnetic slider controlled SV System and cord-pull C System, to the pleated blackout version and the smart home compatible
logistics infrastructure, enhancing delivery capacity and service reliability across all five of its specialist brands. motorised MB System. These are compatible with a 20mm cavity, which means they are suitable for 52mm triple glazed IGUs.
Triple glazed units with a 44mm thickness can also feature Uni-Blinds ® integral blinds thanks to the slimline SL16 Venetian blind system, which is available exclusively in the UK from Morley Glass. The narrower slats of this system are specifically designed to fit within a 16mm cavity, making them ideal for a 44mm triple glazed unit in a 4-16- 4-16-4mm configuration.

The enhanced transport capacity will benefit customers across the UK, particularly in high-demand regions such as Yorkshire.
“ As our brands continue to grow and diversify, it’ s essential that our logistics capabilities evolve in tandem,” said Andrew Glover, Managing Director at UKO Group.“ This fleet expansion ensures we can continue to deliver exceptional service, reduce lead times, and support our customers and partners with even greater flexibility.”

A signal of what’ s next
“ We’ re inviting the industry to get ready for what’ s coming,” said Steve Massey, Chief Sales Officer at Regency Glass.“ Q4 marks the start of the countdown not just to a product launch, but to a shift in what homeowners and installers can expect from glazing.”
A partnership built on innovation
Corning’ s long history of material science innovation, from creating the glass casement for Thomas Edison’ s first lightbulb to inventing the Corning ® Gorilla ® Glass used in billions of smartphones worldwide, has advanced many aspects of modern life. The company’ s pioneering work in ultra-thin borosilicate glass now underpins the core of the Regency Triple range.
The countdown is on
“ This technology is not only an exciting development for the UK; it’ s helping to bridge a larger need for advanced window technology globally,” said Thomas Bertin-Mourot, Director, Innovation Growth, Advanced Windows, Corning.“ We’ re looking forward to our continued collaboration with Regency to deliver this innovative product to residents and business owners around the world.”
What’ s next?
Regency Triple will be integrated into Regency’ s online Glass for Your Home survey later this year, helping homeowners and installers choose the right unit with confidence and support. With early 2026 approaching fast, anticipation is building.
