With supplies of steel across all manufacturing sectors still not yet stabilised from an availability perspective, along with several price hikes, Window Widgets has experienced a surge in demand for Werbar, its dedicated range of recycled composite material reinforcement sections for PVC-U window and door systems. Available for the vast majority of PVC-U window and door systems, Werbar is a popular alternative, Window Widgets claims, and one that’s also cost-effective. It creates additional profile chambers, provides improved screw retention and PVC screws can be used, optimising the fabrication process.
Werbar is also a useful component when looking to reduce U-values in a window and door. When the new building regulations are announced later this year, the product is likely be harnessed to help meet the new standards set by government, Window Widgets predicts.
Adrian Clare, Window Widgets’ technical sales executive, said: “When Werbar came out in 2009, it was designed to be the most cost-effective tool in developing an energy-rated window, with increases of up to nine points over steel. Importantly, we can provide expert guidance to PVC-U frame manufacturers as to which sections to use and what they can achieve from an energy efficiency perspective. It’s already widely used by many of the largest fabricators in the industry, and therefore particularly appropriate to the current range of 70mm systems.”
