VBH (GB) launched 11 new products at the FIT Show, on a stand that was “a hive of activity”.

New products included: the Q-Smart handle with fingerprint reader; new AGB tilt-and-turn system; two new outward opening window locking systems; Clearlift patio door system; slam shut door lock; 3-Star profile cylinder; stainless-steel Invisifold casement hinge; and two new finishes – Enduro Steel and Antique Black.

“We got great feedback on the new Q-Smart handle in particular,” marketing manager Gary Gleeson said. “Plenty of stock will be available. We also had a lot of interest from Deceuninck fabricators in the PAS24-rated hardware package for the Heritage flush door, which includes the bespoke greenteQ Sigma adjustable hinge.

“Visitors to the stand were also really impressed with the AGB ArTech Tilt and Turn system, which has passed over 2,000 hours of salt spray testing and is available exclusively through VBH.”

The greenteQ Arms’ was also busy on the exhibition’s late-night opening on the first day, with customers, prospects and media enjoying the high-quality spirits on offer from a distillery close to VBH’s Kent headquarters.
