Fire range launch
23rd June 2020

Birmingham-based Performance Window Fabrications, which was recently acquired by the Six-Twenty group, has launched FIRE WINDOWS DIRECT to manufacture aluminium fire-rated windows, doors and curtain walling.

 Alex Sutherland, pictured, managing director of PWF, said: “The launch of the new brand was an obvious next step. Over the past 12 months we have seen a huge increase in the amount fire rated orders we are getting. We now want to take that specialism forward to eventually become a stand-alone niche supplier.” 

The company will work with Reynaers Aluminium as certified Fire Safe Partners to deliver its full suite of fire rated products and every employee under Fire Windows Direct will undergo an intensive fire training programme at Reynaers’ HQ in Belgium. PWF has held the Certifire accreditation to manufacture fire rated aluminium windows for over a year. 

Richard Hall, manager director of Reynaers, said: “We’re proud to see the launch of Fire Windows Direct and are excited to welcome them on board as certified Fire Partners.  Being a member of our Fire Partner scheme reflects their commitment to fire safety and, as part of this, we will work closely with them to deliver specialised training programmes for their whole team.”

Last month, it was announced that Six Twenty Group had acquired 100% of the share capital of Performance Window Fabrications http://www.the-glazine.com/WeeklyFolders/glazine26may2020/west_midlands_based_six_twenty.htm
