HARDWARE SPECIALISTS TO BRING NEWLY
EVOLVED PRODUCTS TO MARKET

Caldwell UK has radically
improved two of its products in
a move that will see its customers
benefit from better systems at no
extra cost.
Caldwell are now at the end of
the process of improving and re-
engineering its Ultra Lift (UL2)
and Torso spring balances so that
they are even higher performing.
From August, UL2 will be
replaced by the Ultra Lift 6 (UL6)
and in June Torso will be replaced
by the new Torso II version.
Darren Murphy, Director
of Operations at Caldwell,
comments: “We have spent
months of design and engineering
time to bring these new and
improved products to market.
There are no extra costs incurred
from this process and the new
products will not impact on our
customer’s current manufacturing
or fitting processes.
“Each product brings
significant advantages to the
manufacturer and end-user. For
example, Torso II will be able
to hold a higher weight within
a 19-millimetre tube diameter
as opposed to a 25-millimetre
diameter.”
The standard Ultralift balances
can be specified for use in both
tilt-in and standard sash windows.
A double sprung design means
they can offer the end user up
to 80% increased mechanical
advantage compared with
standard operation.
Like Ultralift balances, the
Torso models are double sprung
to give the end user significant
levels of mechanical assistance
Why not fabricate aluminium bi-folds by choosing
One bi-fold hardware range for all Systems
when operating the window.
Torso balances, however, can cater
for much heavier sash weights,
supporting sashes from 3kg –
60kg.
Tim Ferkin, Sales & Marketing
Director, comments: “We greatly
value the business relationship we
have with each customer, which
is why we are delighted to be
launching our new and improved
products. Not only do they offer
significant performance benefits
they can be delivered on faster
lead times too – speeding up the
manufacturing process.”
The updated products form
part of a £1 million investment
programme, that will see Caldwell
roll out a number of UK first’s in
the coming weeks.
