Secondary facility
Fabricator Roseview Windows has more than doubled the capacity of its Incarnation secondary glazing brand by expanding into a new factory.
Previously, Incarnation operated from a 2,500ft2 facility, but now half of a new 11,000ft2 facility has been dedicated to manufacturing aluminium secondary glazing.The company has also invested more than £100,000 in new machinery and tooling.
Paul Bygrave, director at Roseview Windows, said: “We started manufacturing secondary glazing seven years ago, largely as a service for our sash window customers. The idea was that we could help them win business on heritage projects where replacement windows weren’t permitted.
“Since then interest in the heritage market, and thus demand for secondary glazing, has grown enormously. We were struggling to cope in our previous space so we took the decision to take things to the next level.”
The other half of the facility close to Roseview’s Buckinghamshire base has been set aside for new developments coming in 2020.
Roseview managing director Richard Burrells said: “Along with Incarnation’s expansion, we have exciting plans for our Rose Collection sash windows next year, including the launch of a new model. The extra space available at our new facility will help us to deliver those plans and increase overall capacity without interrupting our already busy production line.”
