CHOOSING PRODUCTS THAT CUSTOMERS LOVE
» » IT’S EASY TO FOCUS ON
product features that resonate with
the trade. We’ve all generally been
around the industry long enough
to understand multi-chambers,
rebates, U-values and the various
pros and cons of the multitude
of different products on offer to
today’s installers and fabricators.
However understanding what
features make a real difference for
homeowners is key to ensuring
high levels of customer satisfaction,
making them more likely to leave
good reviews and recommend you
to their friends and family. There
is also the pride that comes from
installing good quality products that
customers will value for years to
come. Despite our sometimes bad
reputation as an industry – driven
by a thankfully ever decreasing
number of rogue operators – we
generally care about what we sell
and the service we offer.
Synseal Group has been using
this as a key driver to steer its
product development for the past
couple of years aiming to deliver
products that make sense for
installers and fabricators – but
perhaps more importantly make a
real difference in people’s homes.
For example our Solid Roof
System – launched as Celsius Solid
Roof, but being rebranded over
the next few months to a more
consumer friendly name - comes
with the exclusive WarmCore fixed
roof light – the extra insulation
this provides over a standard
roof vent, along with the 41%
more light it allows into the
extension makes a real difference
to the room. The hassle free SIPs
construction also reduces the
risk of leaks and ‘cold spots’ that
can lead to condensation issues –
leaving homeowners with a room
they can get on and enjoy, bathed
in natural light.
While our Craftsman range
of engineered timber doors gives
homeowners the chance to choose
a genuine solid, aesthetically
beautiful entrance door – enjoying
the feel of a ‘proper’ timber door
without worrying about the
door swelling or shrinking in
our increasingly varied climate.
The range of 30 styles strikes the
perfect balance of style and ‘fit-
and-forget’ that homeowners are
looking for.
That’s why we should all be
choosing products homeowners
love, that installers also love to fit!

Roof manufacturer ready for 2019
» » HOSTED BY SUPALITE’S NEW MD,
Steve Hacking, the Supalite’s annual fabricator
conference recapped on what has been a
highly-successful year for both the business
and its trade partner network. The event also
saw a number of exciting, new developments
unveiled as SupaLite prepares for another big
year in 2019.
Firstly, SupaLite launched the new-look
‘Registered Fabricator Scheme’, now endorsed
and fully-supported by CORGI Fenestration.

The new and improved scheme not only
ensures all fabricators are working to the same
high standards but delivers a competitive
edge for customers, with the full backing of
CORGI Fenestration; one of the industry’s
most recognisable names.
Secondly, SupaLite also launched the
new ‘Registered Installer Scheme’, which
also operates in conjunction with CORGI
Fenestration. Offering the same benefits of
CORGI Fenestration registration, the installer
scheme aims to promote the best SupaLite
installers across the country and provides a full
range of support from free sales leads to the
option of SupaLite micro websites. Installers
will be able to notify their work to CORGI
Fenestration via Supalite’s online portal saving
the need for any double entry.
Along with providing full registration with
CORGI Fenestration, the SupaLite scheme is
unique in also providing building regulations
approval. As such, customers will now be able
to submit applications, supporting documents
and photography via SupaLite’s online portal -
a process designed to help customers save both
time and money.
Steve Hacking comments: “The last 12
months have been massive for SupaLite and
it looks like 2019 will be much of the same.
This is our third fabricator conference and it’s
been fantastic to share all our important news
and celebrate the successes of our valued trade
partners. A big thank you to all our fabrication
partners for taking time out to travel up and
join us in Preston.”
The event also introduced a number of new
products including the official launch of the
Flat Roof Orangery and the brand-new Sky
Vista roof. Sky Vista is SupaLite’s new, highly-
requested hybrid roof system combining both
solid and glazed elements. To finish off the
event, SupaLite crowned their Fabricator of
the Year for 2018. After a year of impressive
growth, which saw SupaLite sales increase by
100%, the winner was revealed as Stafford
uPVC Windows.
