VEKA celebrates with certificates at the FIT Show (1)
May 10, 2017
VEKA’s Accreditation Manager Mark Barsby explains: “VEKA is proud to announce the launch of The SmartFold Door at this year’s FIT Show. To accompany the launch, SmartFold has successfully completed a testing programme to BS 6375-1, weather performance and PAS 24, enhanced security using hardware from VBH. This led to the team being presented with a certificate to acknowledge the high standards the system has already achieved.
“Available in VEKA M70 and Halo System 10 profile suites, SmartFold is ideal for applications such as orangeries and conservatories where large clear openings are desired to bring the outside in.”
The team on the stand were also presented with a certificate to celebrate the company’s innovative Parallel Window.
Mark adds: “VEKA, Siegenia and Cotswold, three of the most recognised manufacturing brands in the fenestration industry have worked in partnership to introduce one of the first PVC-U parallel windows to the marketplace.
“This unique collaboration between system, locking and hinge specialists provides an energy-efficient, low maintenance alternative to commercial aluminium where increased air flow around the full perimeter of the window opening creates rapid change of air inside the building.”
These two certificate presentations were followed by another; to commemorate VEKA celebrating 20 years of Kitemark commitment with the BSI.
