Q MARK CERTIFICATION FOR TWO MORE SCHUECO SLIDING DOOR SYSTEMS
Leading sustainable building envelope specialist, Schueco UK, has announced that as a system supplier two more of its popular sliding door systems – the Schueco ASS 70.HI lift/slide door and the Schueco ASS 70 FD folding/sliding door – have been awarded Q Mark Product Certification by Exova BM Trada.
The Q Mark Product Certification Scheme covers not just product quality – in areas such as weather performance, mechanical strength, operating forces, corrosion resistance of fittings and PAS 24 security – but also the integrity of the fabricator’s manufacturing process.
One particular benefit of Q Mark Certification is that in addition to providing customers with a valuable assurance of quality, it allows Q-Marked firms to bid for work on Secured by Design projects, opening up a whole new market for Schueco’s fabricator partners.
The police’s Secured by Design initiative, in operation now for over ten years, has been credited with helping to substantially reduce break-ins and burglaries. Thus, windows and doors complying with SBD specifications form part of the front line against unlawful entry and can help home-owners to reduce household insurance premiums.
