OUR ISO-TOP WINFRAMER “TYPE 1” PASSES THE WEIGHT TEST!
In an onsite site construction challenge, a new ISO-TOP WINFRAMER “TYPE 1” window installation was loaded with 120kg over 900mm and did not shift an inch - it can take at least 200kg/m – to confirm to sceptical customers that the product can easily withstand heavy load bearings.
The composite ISO-TOP WINFRAMER “TYPE 1” brackets can bear heavy windows loads, including bi-fold doors, to provide a reliable, strong and high-performance support frame. Installation is quick with windows attached directly and secured mechanically using either standard fixing screws or fixing lugs in the usual manner.
A hinged insulation core combines with the composite structural bracket to become an integral part of the overall wall structure, providing compliance with Building Energy Act requirements) and the RAL quality assurance association.
Andy Swift, our sales and operations manager – UK and ROI, said ISO-TOP WINFRAMER “TYPE 1” is increasingly being specified among housebuilders and installers as an effective thermal insulating and load bearing bracket support system.
He said: “Our customers continually challenge us over the weight bearing capability of WINFRAMER, so it was great see it easily pass this test easily. Specifiers, designers and property developers want new ways to deliver low carbon, energy efficient homes, which use sustainable technologies. Our products support this, delivering measurable airtight, acoustic and thermal sealing properties.”
