In-house horns
17th July 2018

Nottinghamshire-based NOVA TRADE FRAMES is now manufacturing run-through sash horns for its Heritage and Total70 profiles following the investment in a new £10,000 end miller machine.

Managing director Alex Hunt said: “In the past we had bought in the run through sash horns from a competitor as a specialist item for customers requesting it, but with the numbers we were doing on the Heritage windows side of our business, it just made more sense to invest in the equipment to create them ourselves.

“It was a big outlay in terms of commissioning the equipment and training for our production staff, but it’s proving to be such a popular option for our customers that we will see a return on that investment very quickly.”

Rehau area sales manager Rick Cole said: “Innovation in the glazing industry doesn’t always mean looking forward, it can also mean creating the most traditional period windows to suit the needs of older-style properties. By investing in machinery to deliver seamless run through sash horns, Nova Trade Frames has taken the authenticity of our Heritage frames a step further.”
