FIT SHOW 2017
BOLD DEBUT AT THE FIT SHOW
» » Fast-growing Dekko Window Systems is
Kurt Greatrex, Dekko Sales Director
marking the latest stage of its expansion with
a landmark debut at this year’s FIT Show.
One of the country’s leading
manufacturers of PVCu and aluminium
windows, Dekko has spent the last decade
investing millions in infrastructure and
innovative new products. In recent years, it’s
built a new factory and added no less than
ten new products to an already extensive
range. But now that groundwork has been
put in place, Dekko has decided the time
is right to take the stand at the industry’s
biggest trade event, as Sales Director Kurt
Greatrex explains:
“We’ve made massive strides in the
last few years – expanding and refining
production, developing and launching high-
end products and laying the foundations for
future growth. Now, we’re heading to the
FIT Show with a lot to shout about – and
it provides us with the perfect platform to
showcase the fantastic range we’ve been
able to develop.”
“We’re hugely excited to be taking to the
FIT Show for the first time, and meeting old
friends and new prospects from around the
country,” Kurt concluded.

» » The newly launched Bowater by Birtley
range from Birtley Group will be on display
for all to see at this year’s bigger and better
FIT Show at the NEC. Kevin Kiernan of Birtley
Group says: “We’re thrilled to be attending
this year’s FIT Show and especially pleased
we’re attending with something genuinely
new to show the market. Our composite
door range alone offers more choice than
most with both 44mm and 68mm available,
a range of doors to suit all budgets from
commodity to high end and a wide range of
colours thanks to our in-house paint line. The
range combines the best of Bowater Doors
and Birtley Group with superb aesthetics,
security and energy performance.
“Visitors to our stand (F20) will not only be
able to see first-hand the excellent quality of
our range, they will also be able to quiz our
team of experts about why we’re different
and what to expect from Bowater by Birtley
in terms of product and service. Bowater by
Birtley is a new force to be reckoned with in
composite doors and we’ re looking forward
to showing fabricators and installers why at
FIT 2017.”

dedicated areas for both SmartSecure, the
company’s electronic locking and smart
access control systems and Roto/Peder
Nielsen (PN) window gearing.
