COMPOSITEDOORS Slab Only Service Solidor has recently expanded its slab only offering for fabricators and door manufacturers, with the offering of a complete range of door designs, 17 through colours inside and out, ODL TriSYS cassettes, glazing, hardware and accessories. »»The company already satisfies the demands of a number of high profile fabricators and believes its latest expanded offering will further entice manufacturers to make the change to a composite door slab that’s produced in the UK with a solid, hardwood core. The Solidor slab is 10% thicker than the standard imported ones from the Far East and is perfectly suited to a standard door outer frame. The door slabs have been recently re-engineered to offer better levels of energy efficiency with some slabs achieving a U-value of just 1.3 W/m2K, while the 62mm door slab can achieve the Passivhaus standard of 0.8 W/ m2K. Solidor has worked with the internationally renowned, IFT Rosenheim GmbH in Germany and Build Check Ltd in the UK on this project. Gareth Mobley, Managing Director Solidor Group, said: “Our numerous product features, UK manufacturing flexibility and support are a better option, as the market continues to demand a better composite door.” For information on Solidor visit www.solidor.co.uk.
