More than 200 people attended Liniar’s Zero|90 launch events over two days in January. Liniar, The PVC-U systems company, which is a subsidiary of Quanex, launched its new Zero|90 and Zero|90R window and door system during the events, using engaging presentations led by the firm’s senior management team.
The new Zero|90 window and door system is marketed as being able to easily reach a U-value of 0.66 W/m²K, meaning that Zero|90 Liniar fabricators can be ready for the widely anticipated changes to Part L of the building regulations and the Future Homes Standard two years early, according to the product’s representatives. The feedback from both days has been tremendously positive, the Liniar team has reported, citing comments including “Informative, well presented and professional” and “Superb, the most impressive launch I’ve attended for some time.”
Nigel Bishop, Liniar’s group sales director, said: “We’ve been overwhelmed by the feedback from our events. The buzz in the room was fantastic on both days, and the whole of the Liniar team are still on a high.
“We are a progressive, innovative company and it was a privilege to host the launch of such a ground-breaking window and door system. Zero|90 will continue to position Liniar at the forefront of the fenestration industry in creating the most energy-efficient products.”
Nigel was joined by Chris Armes, Liniar’s design and development director, and Paul Garforth, technical services director, who described the evolution of PVC-U windows and explained why, in their view, the industry should be pushing the boundaries to stay ahead of legislation. The launch presentation conveyed the combined benefits that Zero|90 and its rebated sister, Zero|90R, are set to bring to the new build, social housing and replacement markets: ‘superb energy efficiency to passive house standards, noise reductions of twice that of standard double glazing and sustainability’, with calculations for a full house installation showing carbon reductions equivalent to planting 700 trees.
“We know we all need to do whatever we can to reduce carbon emissions,” Nigel continued. As well as being on our own net zero journey from a manufacturing perspective, Liniar is helping its fabricators and installers embrace the future Part L building regulations and Future Homes Standard now. Our philosophy is: Why wait?
“We’ve invested millions of pounds into the development of the Zero|90 window and door system and are already seeing an unprecedented wave of enquiries for this unique 90mm system. Best of all, it’s available right now. We already have a network of enthusiastic fabricators ready to supply super-energy-efficient windows and doors.”
Sue Davenport, group marketing director, added: “We’re delighted with the reception of the Zero|90 launch. The events were a great opportunity to get customers, the press and the wider industry together, and were the end result of months of fantastic teamwork.
“The engagement in the room was incredible, the feedback afterwards was brilliant and we’re still seeing positive comments across our social media channels. We’ve already had a huge number of enquiries from our fabricator network wanting to manufacture Zero|90, and also from house builders and architects who are enthusiastic about being able to offer a genuinely game-changing window and door system.
“Zero|90 will help give them all a competitive edge in an increasingly environmentally conscious market.” Visit liniar.co.uk/zero90 for more information about the Zero|90 window and door system.
