‘Appearance of timber joint’
27th November 2018

SHEPLEY has launched the Vuelta flush sash with a PVC-U weld said to gives the appearance of a traditional timber joint on the outside following an investment in MechWeld machinery from Jade Engineering.

Sales director Tony Ball explained: “We didn’t want to take a backwards step with designing a flush sash window, so we looked for a new way of welding rather than a mechanical joint to create a timber look frame without compromising on strength and performance.

“To achieve this, we needed a completely new welding process as there was nothing on the market that was up to the job. Luckily, our long-term tooling partner Jade Engineering was already working on their MechWeld joint solution. Shepley invested in MechWeld and worked with Jade to perfect this new welding system.

“The MechWeld system means we can offer Shepley customers the best flush sash window with the consistent high quality and dependable service they need to sell it with confidence.”
