Listers' Window Customers 'Pass A-Levels'

Construction News Image
A Stoke on Trent firm have just taken another leap forward in the energy efficiency arena by making their windows BFRC 'A' Energy Rated as standard.

Lister Trade Frames were one of the first companies in the UK to fully embrace and exploit the potential of the BFRC Window Energy Ratings Scheme.

They have had a number of ‘firsts’ in this market including the first 'A' Rated domestic window installation some four years ago in 2006. Last year saw them receive the coveted Glass and Glazing G-09 Energy Efficiency Initiative Award at Wembley Stadium.

Phil Warren, Listers' Sales Director, said: "Part-L, with its emphasis on 'C' energy rated windows is looming on the horizon but we have been 'B' rated as standard for two years now.

"We have continued to work with our suppliers to try and get a cost effective 'A' rated product and we have just achieved that.

"So, rather than just sit back, we decided to give our Trade Customers something that would raise them well above the crowd of 'C' raters soon to hit the market."

The last 12 months have see Listers growing again despite the recession and taking on new customers from their competitors at a regular rate. Many of those customers have joined Listers because of their marketing support, but Phil says that lots of them have joined at seeing the simplicity and benefits of buying complete BFRC licensed products from Listers one stop shop.
