282 delegates attend Energy Conference
The ‘Energy Efficiency in Focus’ conference held on 26th
February 2009 at Coventry’s Ricoh Arena was attended by 282
delegates from the glazing industry including
representatives from systems companies, sealed unit
manufacturers, fabricators, installers and the trade press.
Andy Jones, Managing Director of Edgetech and host of the
day, said “We knew the issues would be of interest to the
industry, but we were thrilled with the number of people
that took time out of their busy schedules to attend the
day. As companies are fighting even harder to maintain or
hopefully grow their sales, taking a day out is a testament
to the commitment some forward thinking companies are making
to their own, and the industry’s, future.”
All of the window or energy industry experts talking on the
day agreed that Window Energy Ratings offered the industry
one of the most powerful opportunities it has ever seen.
Andrew Scott from Purplex Marketing, Sara Pearce from the
Energy Saving Trust, Simon Beer from BM Trada, Giles Willson
from the British Fenestration Ratings Council, and Andy
McDowell from Pilkington Glass all spoke on the day and
inspired the audience to get involved in the question and
answer session at the end of the day.
Andrew Scott, Managing Director of Purplex, recommended that
fabricators and installers took advantage of the BFRC rating
scheme early, to gain a competitive edge over competitors;
“The Rating Scheme is one of the most powerful tools now
available to fabricators and installers. It is instantly
recognised by homeowners and will help forward thinking
companies stand out from competitors.”
