event zone Think Pink at FIT » » A DISTINCTIVE PINK LIVERY FROM Window Widgets will be on display at stand I70 this May, where the company will showcase a wide range of ancillaries for PVCu and aluminium window and door systems, along with other industry product solutions. Window Widgets will also be looking to highlight the importance of CE Marking for baypole jacks, something that’s also being pushed by BSI in an awareness campaign. There will be several members of staff on the stand that will be able to answer all questions on this topic and also on other technical matters relating to their broad product range. While aluminium and PVCu ancillaries form an important part of their product portfolio, the wide range of couplers and weatherbars are also important for those in the composite door sector. Given the product portfolio, Window Widgets will also be taking details for those people and companies that want a copy of their latest 158-page product catalogue, which has been dubbed as ‘the big pink book.’ www.windowwidgets.co.uk Marketing Village lands at the FIT SHOW » » THE MARKETING VILLAGE (stand R10) is the latest addition to The FIT Show exhibitor line- up.
