Glazing specialist Fendor (HEJ – November 2010), has published a new brochure that addresses the specific glazing needs of the healthcare market and should help specifiers identify the best systems to use for particular applications.
Designed for all specifiers of steel, aluminium, and steel/aluminium composite windows, the eight-page publication gives detailed information on all aspects of glazing for this market. Guidance on what to consider initially when choosing a window system is followed by an explanation of all current energy rating requirements, including Window Energy Rating (WER), BREEAM requirements, and U-values. The brochure graphically illustrates the frame and glass selections available from Fendor, highlighting the costs of particular components, and the security, maintenance, and aesthetic aspects of each. The brochure lists Fendor’s healthcare glazing product range, with clear illustrations and details on the CleanVent, SwingVent, and AlphaLine ranges. “This is a compact and invaluable document for anyone involved in specifying windows and fenestration systems for healthcare establishments,” says Chris Duffy, the company’s MD. “We have detailed every consideration – from product to energy rating advice through to understanding ligature risk.”
