In a bid to be more ‘open, transparent and accessible’, the GGF and its associate bodies, Fensa, BFRC (Window and Door Energy Ratings), Installsure (specialist insurance) and RISA (inspections), are inviting FIT Show visitors to stand T41 to find out more about the number of initiatives and support services now on offer.

The GGF alone launched a number of new initiatives in recent months including the Skilled Pathways training scheme, Window of Opportunity research and a glass recycling scheme as Tom Butler, head of sales & marketing, explained: “The GGF Group continually researches, develops and launches initiatives designed to provide members and non-members with valuable and tangible support.

“The GGF and its sister organisations have also been responsible for launching Pulse Testing to assess trickle vent requirements on a property, which has been a huge help to installation businesses previously worried about the change in Building Regulations. The new glass recycling scheme is also a welcome addition to the already successful recycling programmes for PVC-U and aluminium frames.

“We invite visitors to the FIT Show to come and find out what we are about! We welcome the opportunity to actually meet the people we serve who are at the coalface every day,” continued Tom.

“Meeting people face-to-face allows both parties to understand each other better so we want visitors to ‘come and press the flesh’ to find out more about each of the organisations in the group, and how they work.

“The GGF Group will have staff on hand throughout the FIT Show to discuss all of the initiatives and support services that it provides for every level of the glass and glazing industry,” concluded Tom, “so we hope the industry takes advantage of what will probably be the best opportunity we will have for a couple of years to meet and find out more about each other.”
