Velfac
Windows and doors are one of the
main sources of heat loss from a
building: to minimise this loss, it is
vital to install only those glazing
products which demonstrate
excellent U-values. A Velfac window
with their standard double-glazed
unit provides a U-value of
1.54W/m
2
K at the European
standard test window size of 1.23m
x 1.48m. This low figure results from a number of key design
features: the internal pine frame, the argon-filled cavity and the
low-e glazing, all of which combine to provide excellent insulation.

Damian Kemp, Windowbase’s
Commercial Manager, says that
building materials suppliers who
want to grow should improve their
targeting of social housing
specifiers. “Follow the money is
sound marketing advice especially
when the sector continues to spend
around £5 billion a year.
As more and more house builders,
developers and contractors stabilise
their portfolios with social housing
contracts, it’s increasingly important for building material suppliers to
step up their communication with specifiers. Making sure you are
speaking to the right specifiers is also crucial.”
