2. Timber quality
The pine we use offers the clearest visual evidence of our roof window quality. Not only does its close grain look stylish, we obtain timber from FSC® certified sources. Our double vacuum process using water-borne preservatives provides lasting dimensional stability and all windows are finished with two coats of environmentally friendly lacquer. Compare this with another leading manufacturer which states:
“The timber has received basic treatment and a finished coating at the factory. It must receive further treatment at least every four years and whenever required. Windows exposed to strong heat, strong sunlight and/or high levels of humidity (e.g. in kitchens or bathrooms) must however receive treatment at least every two years”.
We therefore actively encourage customers to compare our window finishing with that of other manufacturers.
