SAPA customer awarded host of British Standards

Sapa Building Systems customer Joedan Manufacturing UK has been awarded a host of British Standard Kitemarks for Sapa's Dualframe window and door system.

Joedan has a well-known track-record for their bold innovation and saw the investment in attaining the Kitemarks as crucial to their future plans.

The company submitted a range of windows and doors to BSi and were subsequently awarded:.

* BS4873 - Specification for aluminium alloy windows.

* BS7950 - Specification for enhanced security performance of casement and tilt/turn windows for domestic applications.

* PAS023-1 : 1999 - General performance requirements for door assemblies; Part 1 - single leaf door assemblies to dwellings.

* PAS024-1 : 1999 - Enhanced security performance requirements for door assemblies; Part 1 - single leaf external door assemblies to dwellings.

All of the Kitemarks are an essential and increasingly important element for fabricators especially those that see their future in capitalising on the continuing strong growth in the local authority housing, education and private sector residential apartment markets.

The Kitemarks are frequently built into the performance specification for projects in these markets.

Joedan's Founder, John Purcaro, commented: "We have never been backward in taking the steps necessary to secure our future".

"British Standard Kitemarks are crucial to our plans for this year and beyond and we know that in this increasingly competitive marketplace, they are going to make all the difference.".
