General information
- Short Summary
- A UK-based firm is seeking partnerships with manufacturers and distributors in the insulated sidings sector. The company is particularly interested in engaging with manufacturers of UPVC profile extruders and distributors in colder climates such as Nordic countries, North America, Canada, and Northern Europe, where two-storey domestic insulation is a key requirement. The firm’s patented product is an innovative building solution that enhances energy efficiency and is ideal for social housing pro
- Full Description
-
Founded in 2002, this UK firm began as a sustainability consultancy in the built environment sector, offering energy procurement and sustainability services to major property managers and investment funds. The company has now developed an innovative, rapid-fit insulated sidings system designed for external insulation of two-storey buildings. The system is manufactured using extruded vinyl and has been tested and certified by leading British industry experts.
The firm is seeking manufacturing and distribution partners to scale its operations, particularly in colder regions where insulation plays a critical role in reducing energy consumption. The primary manufacturing requirement is for UPVC profile extruders, companies that can produce long lengths of material for use in the production of windows, doors, and now, this unique insulated siding solution.
The firm is interested in collaborating with social housing providers, local councils, and contractors in countries with government incentives aimed at improving domestic insulation standards. These partnerships could help increase the adoption of this high-performance insulated siding system, which has been proven to reduce heat loss by up to 45%. - Advantages and Innovations
