Helping installers gain an edge

Pyramid Profiles managing director, Paul Bailey, discusses the benefits the company can offer its customers as a Veka Halo fabricator.

Back in 2016, we decided to make a big change here at Pyramid Profiles. After 20 years in business, we changed systems for the first time, moving to the Veka Halo system and we haven’t looked back since.

It’s always a big decision to change systems and it certainly wasn’t an easy one. However, when we realised the benefits that we could offer to our customers, we knew it was time to make a change.

Technically, Veka products have everything ¬– thermal efficiency and weatherproofing, style, adaptability, and security. However, what sets them apart is the level of extra help they offer to installers, and we’ve already had such positive feedback from our customers.

What we try to do at Pyramid is to help our installers in any way possible. Whether it’s making our products faster to fit, or easier to sell to homeowners, all our processes are in place to make their lives easier.

Veka’s level of customer support, along with its Independent Network scheme, means we can offer fitters an unbeatable service that helps their business, which is exactly why using the Halo system was a no-brainer for us.

Industry-leading support

Veka has some of the strongest marketing collateral in the PVC-U industry and offers so many benefits to installers, making it easy for them to promote their business to homeowners.

Joining Veka’s Independent Network as a fabricator member means our customers can benefit from all this incredible support. Independent Network is one of the industry’s most established customer support schemes and provides a range of benefits, such as 10-year insurance backed guarantees on installations, lead generation, plus comprehensive marketing and business tools.

Becoming an Independent Network member has brought in lots more business to our customers. After all, we want our customers to be as successful as possible.

Industry-leading products

On top of all the extra support, Veka Halo is one of the leading PVC-U window systems on the market. The profile is made with fully enclosed chambers, as well as an additional reinforced chamber to provide extra strength and rigidity.

When combined with the extra thermal inserts, this results in highly thermally efficient products which can achieve U-values as low as 0.8 W/m²k.

The performance is also improved by PCE low level gaskets which result in larger glazed areas, as well as reducing shrinkage to ensure longer-lasting performance.

Easy installation is also ensured with single leg knock-in glazing beads, as well as clip-on features for frame extensions, sills and ancillaries.

Six years after moving to Veka Halo, we’ve never looked back. Being able to offer unbeatable PVC-U products is a huge advantage for our customers, but combined with the level of marketing support available, it means they can gain an edge over competitors and streamline their processes.

The easier it is to sell their products, the more their business will thrive, which is something we are passionate about.

That’s what we do here at Pyramid Profiles. We make our customers’ lives easier in any way we can, and our customers have access to all this incredible support to help business thrive.
