Leamore Windows switches to Veka
Walsall-based fabricator, Leamore Windows, has switched system supply to Veka and will also join the Independent Network as a retail fabricator.
The move sees Leamore Windows making a full switch-over to Veka systems, including Omnia – the award-winning double flush system – alongside the Veka M70 system, the traditional sculptured Rustique system and the Imagine patio door range.
Gary Hackett, managing director at Leamore Windows, explained the decision behind the switch: “Veka has always stood out to us as a premium brand, and becoming part of the Independent Network reinforces that sense of quality and long-term value.
“The level of investment going into the Veka Installer Programme clearly demonstrates a strong commitment to supporting growth at every level, and we see real potential to strengthen our trade customer relationships as a result.
“There’s a visible drive for product innovation, and we’re excited to be adding the full Omnia suite to our range, offering a double rebate flush window, door, and tilt and turn option. Alongside this, we’re also introducing the M70 system for its outstanding thermal performance, the Imagine patio door range and the traditional sculptured profile in the Rustique range, ensuring we’re delivering excellence across every product category.”
Gary praised the process of working with Veka during the transition: “Through every meeting, we’ve felt confident we’re in good hands. Veka has impressed us with their responsiveness and collaborative spirit – they truly operate as one team. The onboarding support has been exceptional.”
Leamore’s changeover to Veka has been overseen by Veka’s technical service engineer, Stefan Sorah, who has worked closely with the business and its suppliers to ensure a smooth transition. Gary commented: “Stefan has been brilliant. He’s put time into every part of our manufacturing, working with third parties to make sure everything is in place. We’ve also had fantastic support from our business development manager, Andy Costall, and Veka’s customer marketing manager, Loredana Emmerson. Their visits to site and hands-on support have made it easy to come on board.”
The marketing transition has also been a key focus, with Veka providing Leamore Windows with a range of materials and strategic support to communicate the change to its customer base.
“We’ve spoken to our trade customers about the move to Veka, and the response has been universally positive,” said Gary. “It’s encouraging to see how highly Veka is regarded across the industry.”
Tim Taylor, commercial director at Veka, said: “We’re absolutely delighted to welcome Leamore Windows into the Veka family. Their decision to switch fully to Veka and join Independent Network is a strong vote of confidence in the value we provide – from product quality to technical support and marketing. We’re incredibly grateful for the trust they’ve placed in us and proud of the collaborative work that’s gone into this transition. We look forward to many successful years of working together.”
