• Epwin Joins The Federation

Epwin Window Systems, the UK’s largest window and doors systems supplier, has announced its membership of the Glass and Glazing Federation.

The GGF is the main representative organisation for companies involved in all aspects of fenestration manufacture both in the UK and internationally. Its mission helps shape the highest technical and health and safety standards across the sector.

 “We take our responsibilities towards the sector we work in very seriously and it is important that we align our brand with all major industry federations.”

– Martin Althorpe 

Technical director, Epwin Window Systems

Best practice

“As the industry leading authority, the GGF promotes best practice,” continues Epwin’s Althorpe. “We have joined this influential community that’s committed to driving standards and professionalism across our sector.”

The GGF is recognised by government and plays a large part in influencing new standards and regulations, such as the Building Regulations, the rules that govern and control the way buildings are constructed in the UK. 

Althorpe adds: “With the regulatory changes across our sector, it makes sense to become members of the GGF and have access to the latest information on Building Regulations and wider industry standards to support our customers and ensure we remain ahead of the curve. We will be aiming to fully participate in relevant industry and technical meetings and share and gain knowledge in addition to networking with other member companies.”

Memberships

Epwin Window Systems holds several other industry memberships. These include the British Plastics Federation Windows Group (BPFWG) and the Council for Aluminium in Building (CAB). It is also involved with the ALFED Aluminium Federation, which represents businesses across the aluminium sector and FENSA, the government-authorised scheme that monitors building regulation compliance for replacement windows and doors.
