Secured by Design endorses Mumford and Wood

Mumford and Wood, a manufacturer of premium timber windows and doors, has achieved Secured by Design accreditation for its Conservation entrance doors and casement windows.

This follows investment in time and financial resources to put windows and doors through the rigorous third-party laboratory testing of windows that comply with BS7950 and doorsets to PAS24.

According to the company, the new flush-fitting casement is traditionally styled and comes with many technical features.

Available to order, these windows are energy rated and meet the requirements of the Code for Sustainable Homes.

The BRE Green Guide certifies that the company's environmental manufacturing processes achieve an A+ rated window, which racks up maximum credits in the Code for Sustainable Homes.

In this, the higher the credit points, the closer specifiers and developers will come to achieving zero-carbon-rated homes scheduled by 2016.

High-performance windows and doors contribute towards the control of energy and CO2 emission, adding to the cumulative point score to CSH Level 6.

In meeting the Secured by Design Enhanced Security British Standard 7950, the traditional appearance of the design conceals the ironmongery that will withstand repetitive and extreme impact tests.

These BSI Kite-marked, fully factory-finished products are manufactured from sustainable laminated and engineered larch, which is durable and achieves a consistent and knot-free surface.

The BRE Green Guide A+ rating for the use of certified timber contributes to the CSH total points count.

Delivered to the site with three coats of water-based microporous paint or stain ensures longer maintenance cycles.
