PROFILES
AWARDS
Moves Into
Next Phase
With the regular unveiling of weekly categories
and the Top 30 Peoples awards now finally
complete, it marks a significant step in this
second year of the National Fenestration
Awards.
Consider this as an evolutionary step, or rather the ending of one
phase and movement on to a new one. With all nominate-able
categories and side competitions now live, the effort now begins
to pull in as many nominations as possible, and to also unveil
an event in which to announce and crown the overall winners at
the end of the year. Something which well be able to talk more
about a little bit later on in the year.
But as the year continues headlong into the summer, the amount
of interaction with the NFAs already points to a very positive
start. Indeed, the number of nominations received so far already
surpasses the total amount last year, which is clearly great news.
We are still receiving new registrations on a daily basis. We have
set ourselves a loose target of reaching 1000 genuine registered
users by the time the nominating phase ends in September. Lets
see how we get on with that!
The Cool Wall continues to be a popular feature within the NFA
framework, with fantastic examples of work being uploaded and
voted on. So now its just getting the Top 30 Peoples awards
alive and kicking and that would be very much the cherry on the
cake right now.
If anyone still doubts these awards and the growing impact they
have, and will continue to have in our industry, the fact that they
are the UKs fastest growing independent fenestration awards
should put paid to that.
Why Take Part?
Im sure this is a question many of you still have. And its a
legitimate one. Why should you take time out of valuable day to
take part in something new like this? Well we cant force you, but
we can give you some reasons to get stuck in!
Inclusivity. We created the NFAs to be one of the most allinclusive awards for our industry. We saw that certain sectors
were dominating the more established events, with other
areas of our industry seemingly going unnoticed despite
all their hard work, innovation and creativity. The NFAs are
the industrys most inclusive awards event, covering 13

Initially, David was caught off

which sent Pala dropping to

COLOUR COATING
Its a
Colourful
World
Installers
decide
colours and
composites
are the major
drivers of
growth
Double glazed
installations,
supported buoyed
by foiled finishes
and colours and
composite door
sales have been
the main drivers
of growth in
new business,
according to a poll
conducted by a
trade fabricator of
its customers..
The study by
Emplas, found
that double glazed
second time
replacements
were universally
seen as the key
driver of recovery
in the window
industry. This
was followed by
colour and foils,
then composite
door sales,
conservatory and
orangery-hybrids
and bi-fold doors.
Triple glazed sales
were listed as
least significant
product area in
driving business
growth in the first
half of the year.
When broken
down by size
of installation
business, the
results reveal a
more complex
pattern. Although
smaller installers
those fitting
up to 10 frames
per week were
consistent in
reporting double
glazed sales as
the major platform
for growth in
the first half of
2014, they ranked
foils behind
composite doors
and conservatory
hybrids. Installers
fitting between
11-20 frames per
week shared the
same analysis,
although listed
composite and
bi-fold doors as
the lead drivers of
growth, ahead of
foils. Conservatory
hybrids were listed
by this group
one but last, just
ahead of tripleglazed products.
This was in stark
contrast to larger
businesses, i.e.
those installing
between 21 and
40, and 40 plus
frames per week,
which listed
colour and foils
as a primary
driver of growth
after double
glazed products.
Composite doors
were also cited
by this group as
a driver for new
business.
Larger installers
also shared the
enthusiasm shown
by those fitting
New
colours
available
from
September
2014
between 11-20
frames per week
for conservatoryorangery hybrids,
which they listed
fourth. However,
this group
reported an only
limited appeal
of bi-fold doors,
one place ahead
of triple glazed
products, which
was again found
at the foot of the
product rankings.
Product
development
doesnt ever
stand still,
remarked Mike
Crewdson, Sales
and Marketing
Director, Emplas.
Triple glazing and
bi-fold doors are
exciting prospects
but to date,
havent achieved
the traction that
was forecast.
Double glazing
continues to be
seen by installers
as central to
their growth
strategies, with
colour and foiled
finishes, achieving
growing sales
in the second
time replacement
market.

Traffic congestion in
cities across the UK
has become far worse
over the past year,
according to a new
report out by TomTom
It is estimated that time
lost as a result of traffic
congestion costs the UK
economy 2 billion a year
and the situation is set to get
worse despite a 28 billion
plan for road improvements
in the UK. The government
has forecast four million more
drivers on UK roads by 2030
and that, by 2040, the volume
of traffic will have risen by
40%.
The TomTom Traffic Index
shows average vehicle
speeds in 2013 were 27%
slower than they would be
under normal conditions; up
from a 26% delay in 2012.
Traffic jams in 10 out of
Britains 17 biggest cities have
got worse over the past 12
months in London, Brighton,
Sheffield, Nottingham,
Leicester, Birmingham,
Portsmouth, Cardiff,
Belfast and Southampton.
Congestion levels have
also failed to improve in
Edinburgh, Manchester,
Liverpool, Newcastle and
Glasgow. The only two
local councils who can
congratulate themselves are
Leeds-Bradford and Bristol
where congestion is down.
The report also suggests
that drivers using rat runs
may actually be making their
