Proving British is best
1st July 2014

2014 sees Sheerframe, part of the Litchfield Group, celebrate 90 years in business. It’s a family-owned company and James Litchfield, its Chairman, is the grandson of the founder. It manufactures all its products for the UK market in the UK and it’s proud to fly the flag for British manufacturing, not least because British-made products have become an important selling point for many.

But the UK manufacturing base is just a small part of a compelling package of benefits that Sheerframe offers.

The company offers a complete product portfolio for all exterior building envelopes and its products are used in all market sectors including social housing, private housebuilding and domestic properties.

The latest addition to its range is the Sheerframe 8000 series window system. Thanks to its U value of just 0.8 W/m², all the windows in the series are compatible with all levels of the Code for Sustainable Homes up to and including Level 6, as well as meeting both Green Deal/ECO and Passivhaus requirements.

Alongside the 8000 series is the 6000 series, which is designed specifically for the new build sector, a fully reversible window system and a tilt and turn window system. The product range also covers composite doors, French doors and bi-fold doors.

But the range doesn’t stop there. When you put Sheerframe together with its sister companies, Masterdor and ICF Tech, it offers a total solution for the entire external building envelope. In short, Sheerframe’s product range makes your life easier.

Its comprehensive product portfolio is backed by an equally strong service and support package. Sheerframe provides full training and technical support on its products and its pro-active sales support programme helps to deliver new business opportunities in your chosen sectors.

One of the things that Sheerframe is best known for is its commitment to sustainability, something that’s increasingly important to both homeowners and specifiers. Its windows focus on thermal efficiency and all its profiles are made using 100% lead-free PVC and calcium stabilisers, meaning they are environmentally friendly and totally recyclable.
