Output up 30%
11th June 2019

Romford based Residence Collection trade fabricator WINDOW TECH TRADE is celebrating a year of growth with around 30% increase in output thanks to the Timberweld patented method of corner.

Managing director Robert Wallis said: “Creating the timber butt-joint effect on both sides of the window is a big plus for installers. Timberweld enables installers to install the frame as usual and then glaze it rather than having to install fully glazed glass-bonded frames. Sealed corners also make the product look better and create an air tight unit.

“But the main benefit of Timberweld is ease of manufacture and speed of installation. It eliminates production problems and is extremely cost effective when you scale up. Our manufacturing output has increased by approximately 30% using Timberweld.”

Alan Burgess, one of the innovators behind Timberweld added: “Homeowners have fallen for the flush sash timber look but achieving it consistently, so it looks perfect, and cost effectively can be a challenge if you mechanically butt-joint.
“If you produce a few frames a week by hand, time and cost per frame are not serious problems, but if you make at scale you must weld whatever the window. Neither conventional 45º corner weld-and-groove, nor ‘seamless’ welding do justice to the butt-jointed timber-look homeowners love.
