‘Excellence’ programme heads FIT Show launches
23rd May 2017

EPWIN WINDOW SYSTEMS unveiled a tranche of new products and initiatives at the start of the FIT Show, headed by the official launch of the group’s new Excellence as Standard programme.

Excellence as Standard is designed to promote excellence amongst extruders, manufacturers, installers and partners across the window and door industry, says Epwin. Covering its three Spectus, Profile22 and Swish brands, the programme: “advocates excellence at every stage of the project – from manufacturing through to installation in a consumer’s home. Installers who are part of the programme will be demonstrating they are committed to raising standards across the industry and delivering an outstanding customer experience.”

A series of masterclasses were held on all three days of the show. The group also introduced the #takethepledge hashtag to help spread the word about the programme.

Sharn Samra, Epwin Window Systems Marketing Director said: “Our research found that most installers place a very high emphasis on personal development and enhanced reputation amongst their customers as they know that these elements are crucial to future growth.”

Distinct branding and marketing materials have been developed for Spectus, Profile 22 and Swish installers, including van livery, POS, literature and workwear as well as listings in the Excellence as Standard directory. Membership will also give installers training and development opportunities plus access to the Excellence as Standard Academy.

Alongside the training and development opportunities, members will have access to leads, marketing and business support from approved specialist partners.

Epwin is working in partnership with FENSA on the programme and members will receive a card that is co-branded as part of their membership package. Jon Vanstone, FENSA Director said: “This new partnership represents a fantastic strategic opportunity for our leading brands to leverage value for the benefit of our members and clients.”
