PROUD SPONSOR OF
INDUSTRY NEWS
to deliver ‘special’ foiling colours even more
quickly.
Covering every product launched by the
innovative systems company, the showroom
beautifully displays the full and diverse range
and provided a real buzz among visitors as they
got ‘hands on’ with the products.
Mick Clayton, CEO of GQA Qualifications
Ltd, commented: “It was great to be at
the opening of Liniar House and have the
opportunity to hear from Roger and Martin
on the story so far and what’s next; whilst on
a completely different scale, the ethos and
culture that was highlighted is very much
something that we at GQA try to operate and
promote.
“Lord Digby Jones was also an entertaining
speaker with a number of common sense
anecdotes and thoughts that fit perfectly with
the theme of the day.
“The day looked to be a great success and
the facilities are fantastic.”
Charlotte Davies, Head of Marketing
for Edgetech UK, said: “The new facility is
impressive and the large showrooms are a great
addition as it’s good to be able to experience
INDUSTRYNEWS
the current range as well as reflect on how far
the company has progressed over the years.
“The tour impressed upon me the attention
to detail and pride that everyone at Liniar
takes in what they do and it made me proud to
be part of the same group as such a market-
leading company.”
INSTALLERS ARE PART
OF THE FAMILY
Martin Dera, Director at Homeworks
Solutions in Bath, was highly impressed with
the new facilities: “As I have come to expect
from the team at Liniar, the official opening
day spoke volumes for the company’s ethos,
as well as to serve as an indicator for future
growth plans.
“Everyone I spoke to on the day had high
praise for the new purpose-built facility and
the showrooms, as well as the future Liniar
Training Academy - which I would definitely
like to attend once it’s up and running.
“As an installer we are at the end of the
supply line and frequently overlooked, at least
prior to our association with Liniar. We really
are made to feel like part of the family and our
invitation to attend the opening day only goes
further to reassure this belief and encourage
us to push the Liniar brand forward at the
coalface.”
Throughout the day, many guests
commented on the extensive timeline on the
wall of the new showroom, which begins
in 1974 with the formation of HL Plastics,
and leads up to 2017 with the launch of the
EnergyPlus90 Passive House window system
and the opening of Liniar House. This huge
graphic leads visitors through each step of the
company’s progress, with world events from
the same year putting things into a wider
context.
It’s difficult to believe that Liniar’s chamfered
window system was launched less than ten
years ago in 2008, given the incredible progress
of the brand over that short period of time.
It will be interesting to see how that timeline
continues to grow.
