BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY FROM roof2roof
Installers looking for a new business opportunity in the North or Midlands may
want to check out the Supalite tiled conservatory roof system, a brand from
Absolute Window Co, one of the North West’s premier trade suppliers.
The Manchester-based company, which
has been established for more than
30 years, manufactures the Supalite
system under licence – and it is getting
rave reviews from both the trade and
consumers.
The reason for its success is not hard
to fathom: this quality, structural system
addresses the issue of temperature stability
transforming an under-used conservatory to
a virtual home extension that is fully usable
all year round.
Homeowners looking to improve their
existing conservatories could benefit greatly
from the installation of a Supalite tiled
roof system, providing installers with some
strong sales potential: the product is energyefficient – which is top of people’s list these
days – having an impressive U value of
0.18.

‘The tiles also come with
a 40 year manufacturer’s
guarantee’
The tiles also come with a 40 year
manufacturer’s guarantee and no
maintenance is needed after installation and
because of the insulation properties, the
problems of condensation have been solved
by the Supalite system.
As a quality product, the system is not
cheap but does offer an excellent way for
homeowners to upgrade their existing

conservatory for all year round multiple
use, and is a far less costly and disruptive
project than a traditional home extension.
And cost savings from heat loss could be
improved still further when householders
opt to replace their existing conservatory
glazing with the latest energy efficient
glass.
As you would expect from a business
that has been serving the trade for so long,
roof2roof offers a full back-up service as
well as training and demos to support the
installer as much as possible.
Spring is almost here, and people will be
thinking about home improvements to
enhance their homes for summer. So if you
want to find out more about how these
products can give your business a boost this
year, call 0161 793 1166.

Ultraframe
launches Loggia
Prestige to broader
market appeal
Ultraframe has launched Loggia Prestige as
an entry level Loggia designed to support
network partners in appealing to budgetconscious homeowners looking for extra
living space they can use all year round,
regardless of the outside temperature.
The Loggia Prestige ‘package’ combines two
narrow Loggia columns, Prestige insulating
pelmet and LivinLight, which combined
address the three main heat loss areas of a
standard conservatory.
Ultraframe commercial director Joe
Martoccia explains why Loggia Prestige is an
easy sell: “Loggia has been in the market for
almost two years and it really is the system
that redefined what this industry should be all
about – creating beautiful, thermally efficient
spaces that utilise the very latest building
technologies – it’s great testament that the

industry has picked up on our
terminology of ‘redefining’ the
conservatory. But what the last
two years has taught us is that
Loggia is an instant hit for homeowners
looking for the grand extension, when in
reality, Loggia can be designed to meet most
budgets.
“Loggia Prestige really supports our network
partners in ‘upselling’ from the standard
conservatory and will really appeal to
homeowners looking for improved thermal
performance, year-round usability and more of
a ‘real room’ feel at real value for money. The
price point is so competitive because we’ve
developed two new components – the Prestige
insulating pelmet and LivinLight – that
when combined with just two narrow Loggia
columns, home owners can still enjoy a 30%

reduction on their heating bill when compared
to heating a standard conservatory. External
aesthetics are improved with the addition of
a Prestige cornice which not only provides
a neat solution to the integration of Loggia
columns but hides what can be unsightly
rainwater goods.
“We need to get the message across that
Loggia is affordable – if someone has taken
the step to have a conservatory – then for a
relatively small price uplift they can have a
Loggia or if they are looking to upgrade their
old conservatory then Loggia Prestige may
well be the perfect fit – who wouldn’t chose
that?”
