Dekko’s new uPVC window is a smooth operator
Posted on 24/03/2016
Dekko Window Systems, the Lancashire based fabricator behind the highly-regarded Räum range of premium-quality doors, is launching its latest innovation in the form of Räum Infinity, a new selection of uPVC windows and doors featuring smooth timber-style joints.
The range is manufactured using revolutionary graf welding technology and aims to capitalise on the buoyant timber alternative market that Dekko has already tapped so successfully as a leading supplier of Residence 9.
The main USP on Räum Infinity can be found on the corner joint. Where traditional uPVC frames feature unattractive 3mm corner grooves left behind when excess plastic from the manufacturing process is removed, Dekko uses state of the art machinery to force this unwanted material inside the frame, thereby eliminating the corner weld and leaving behind seamlessly smooth timber-style joints.
Dekko sales director Kurt Greatrex comments: “For many consumers, the big drawback with uPVC has been the unsightly corner weld, but with Räum Infinity that is no longer the case. With its beautiful smooth finish, Räum Infinity looks more like a wooden window than uPVC, and will appeal to discerning consumers at the higher end of the market. The seamless weld is a genuine leap forward in uPVC window technology and it gives our trade customers the opportunity to really position themselves right at the forefront of the market.”
Räum Infinity windows are available in a choice of two systems – the Deceuninck 2500 and Deceuninck 2800 profile series – and the full range of Deceuninck foils, including the new heritage range. Maco locks are included as standard as well as a choice of premium quality hardware. Other key features include mechanically jointed transoms and mullions, as well as attractive equal sightlines, further enhancing the timber aesthetic.
To help installers sell the benefits of Räum Infinity to the end user, Dekko has a comprehensive marketing support pack that includes window samples, corner samples, a T-Bar sample (incorporating mechanical joints and smooth welds), a display stand, a wall board, brochures and other point of sale material.
“You really need to see Räum Infinity for yourself to appreciate the difference, so feel free to contact Dekko if you would like to order a sample or visit our dedicated Räum showroom,” Kurt concluded.
Founded in 2008 by Gary Torr and Kurt Greatrex, Dekko Window Systems are firmly established as one of the UK’s leading Residence 9, Deceuninck and Kommerling fabricators. The company operates from a 55,000 square foot facility in Ashton-under-Lyne and was recently named one of the London Stock Exchanges 1,000 Businesses to Inspire Britain.
