Kingfisher Windows has added Stellar, the double-award winning aluminium window and door system from Epwin Window Systems, to its portfolio in June. Since then, the company has reported a ‘phenomenal’ uptake of the new system.
Mark Barker, production manager at Kingfisher Windows, says feedback about the system has been positive across the board.
He said: “Stellar is an easy and straightforward system to fabricate and looks superb. It really is a game changer in aluminium system design and looks different from anything else currently on the market which is a big advantage for our customers.”
Feedback from Kingfisher’s customers is said to have been equally impressive. Deborah Beeley, sales and marketing manager, added: “Our installer customers tell us they like fitting Stellar because it’s quick and easy to install thanks to its pre-gasketed, knock in beads. Coupled with the fact that consumers like the slimline, flush aesthetics of the windows and doors, it’s fast becoming the go-to aluminium and door system.”
One of Kingfisher’s installers, Darren Capitano from Abbey Windows in Leeds, recently fitted 44 Stellar flush casement windows and a French door in a high-end consumer home. He commented: “I love fitting Stellar – it’s a pre-gasketed system that uses knock-in beads, so it’s really easy to fit. There’s nothing else like it on the market and I think it’s a game changer. Consumers love it too – the low-level gaskets mean the frames look even slimmer, which taps into the trend for big expanses of glass which are so popular at the moment, so it’s a straightforward sell. It really is a stand-out aluminium product.”
Yorkshire based Kingfisher Windows works in the retail, commercial and trade sectors manufacturing and supplying windows, doors and conservatories.
According to Epwin, Stellar has the slimmest sightlines on the market and is also the only aluminium system to offer a genuinely fully flush casement window. It’s reportedly 20% faster to fabricate and it uses approximately 30% less aluminium.
