Epwin Window Systems has announced that over 100 businesses had signed up to its new Excellence as Standard (EAS) installer programme by the end of the recent FIT Show, with even more ‘taking the pledge’ since.
Sharn Samra, Epwin Window Systems’ marketing director, said: “Excellence as Standard is so much more than a conventional registered installer programme and the reaction from both installers and fabricators shows that it is just what the industry needs.”
The programme encompasses Epwin Window Systems’ brands Spectus, Profile 22 and Swish and advocates ‘excellence’ at every stage of the project from manufacturing through to installation in a consumer’s home.
In order to obtain and preserve EAS Chartered Installer status, Epwin says that installers will need to demonstrate that they adhere to a 12 point charter that shows they are committed to raising standards across the industry and delivering an outstanding customer experience.
In return, they will have access to support and benefits including; effective lead generation, quality products, the EAS Academy, marketing support, partner benefits and the support team, that are designed to drive quality and sales.
The programme is being run in partnership with Fensa and members will receive a card branded with both Fensa and Excellence as Standard that demonstrates the connection.
Sharn concluded: “We believe Excellence as Standard will re-define the benchmark in the home improvement industry and the sign up rate to date proves there’s a real appetite for quality. I would urge any installer who shares our commitment to driving standards and success to take the pledge and join us today for the start of a very exciting journey.”
