East Sussex-based fabricator Tradesmith Limited is celebrating a new milestone in its continuing growth and development – its 18th year working with WHS Halo. And, despite this coming of age, the relationship is continuing to prove a winning combination.

“Despite the adverse trading conditions, our business has seen double-digit growth over the past two years and we’re currently on target to maintain this through 2011,” says managing director Mark Hutchinson. “This success is down to the excellence of the WHS Halo product range and our own commitment to best-in-class customer service.”

System10 casts cool gaze over hot fighters

Visitors to the Spitfire and Hurricane Memorial Museum Building at Manston in Kent can now enjoy the cafeteria there in comfort thanks to System10 casement windows from WHS Halo – the UK’s leading manufacturer of energy efficient doors, windows and fenestration packages.

The museum’s Merlin Cafeteria was opened in 1993, but the glazed area had created a problem for the south-facing building – solar gain overheated the area on sunny days and warped the mahogany frames on the doors and windows, which consequently became cold and draughty in winter.

Local fabricator and installer Stroud Windows replaced these with System10 top opening casement windows and two double French doorsets; all with a rosewood foil finish to match the rest of the woodwork in the building and double-glazed with Planitherm 4S heat-reflective glass.

The revolutionary SmartSash window from WHS Halo – the UK’s leading manufacturer of energy efficient doors, windows and fenestration packages – has been specified and installed in properties in Beausale, Warwickshire, under the 'Retrofit for the Future' programme.

This programme is the first of its kind in the UK, and will see social housing units across the country retrofitted with innovative technologies that demonstrate whole house solutions for refurbishment that cut carbon emissions and energy use. Low carbon consultants Encraft, together with Warwick District Council, won the competition to run this pilot scheme against 400 other bids, with the SmartSash window contributing not just thermal efficiency, but also affordability.
