Seal the Deal at the FIT Show
» » VISITORS TO THE SHERWIN WILLIAMS
stand (on the Council for Aluminium in
Buildings (CAB) Pavilion on stand E21) at
this year’s FIT Show will be able to see live
demonstrations of the new DOWSIL™ 121
Structural Glazing Sealant.
Over the last 50+ years DOWSIL™
silicone products have revolutionised
the way architects and fabricators
design commercial façades. Innovative
technology in silicone structural glazing
and weatherproofing offers specifiers the
very best structural sealant technology.
DOWSIL™ is a wholly owned subsidiary
of the DOW® Chemical company and is
partnered with Sherwin-Williams in the
UK for the sales of its High Performance
Silicone Building Products.
With a fast cure and 1:1 mix ratio,
DOWSIL™ 121 Structural Glazing Sealant
answers the challenges faced by facade
contractors and manufacturers with
slow-curing, one-part sealants, mixing
challenges of multipart sealants, and
limited movement capability of tapes.
DOWSIL™ 121 mixes automatically in
the gun and can be quickly and easily
applied with an electronic gun making it
convenient and simple to use on site or in
the workshop.
Also on display is DOWSIL™ 3363
Insulating Glass Sealant, a high-performing,
new high-strength silicone sealant
engineered specifically for economic and
energy efficient designs in demanding IG
facades.

KEEP IT SUITE AT FIT SHOW
» » DESPITE UNDERTAKING YET
another extension to its
Ballymena factory to cope with
the continuing sales growth for
its highly innovative and popular
doors and windows, Apeer
continues to add new products
to its ranges, the latest of which
will be shown at this year’s FIT
Show on stand L40.
There’s plenty to see:
Apeer is showing its new Silka
smooth-skin residential doors;
a brand new glazed fire door,
fully tested to FD30S with
spyhole and letterbox; and a
new Lumi rooflight that fully
complements the edge-to-edge
glazed, ‘frameless’ aesthetic
of the Lumi windows and
doors. A selection of the latest
Apeer 70 composite doors, the
Lumi Coloro door and a new
Lumi2 slider complete the new
product gallery.
50 MAY 2019
With Apeer’s reputation
for innovative products that
quite literally offer installers
‘the edge’, the promise of
new products will always be
a draw: But the company’s
Lumi2, despite being available
for 18 months now, will provide
visitors to the stand with a great
deal to consider. Produced
with the same edge-to-edge
frameless glazing aesthetic of
the original Lumi triple glazed
window, Lumi2 offers installers
the opportunity to compete as
a option ideal for extensions
and replacements, although
one with stunning features
unavailable with any other
window system.
Offered as a suite of windows
with matching sliding doors
and the new rooflight, Lumi2 is
unique in its offer as well as its
styling. The sales process is also
supported by the company’s
new Lumi software package for
pricing and ordering.
Apeer will utilise a number
of custom display pods on
its FIT Show stand that the
company supplies to its
retailers’ showrooms. These
are designed to show visitors
the support that Apeer can
offer its customers but after the
show, those on the stand will
be shipped, display-ready and
including product, straight to
the showrooms of a handful of
lucky customers: ‘Come and
tell us why you should have
one in your showroom’ is the
challenge laid down by Apeer,
(over a drink of course).
