Stellar wins G22 Product of the Year

Epwin Window Systems has won New Product of the Year at the G22 Awards for its Stellar Aluminium window and door system (Part L).

The newly designed aluminium window and door system won for its developments for the new Part L of Building Regulations as well as the more stringent regulations that will come into force over the coming years as the government continues its push towards net zero.

Clare Bailey, MD at Epwin, said: “The strength of Stellar’s design is reflected in this award. One of the defining factors in the development of the original Stellar system was a refusal to compromise in search of excellence.

“It is a commitment that is still in evidence in the development of the new Stellar window and door system. It’s fantastic to see the efforts of the talented Epwin Window Systems’ teams recognised in this award. We are thrilled.”

The original Stellar aluminium system was launched in 2019. In March 2021, Epwin’s development team made the decision to evaluate the system and consider where and how it could be made even better.

Clare said: “The new Stellar aluminium system demonstrates a level of ingenuity and innovation that the fenestration industry can take pride in. There are few systems that are so comprehensively re-evaluated at any point in their lifespan, let alone just two years in. It reflects a desire to blaze a trail in the industry and set new standards for technical benefits and aesthetic advantages to give our customers a competitive edge.”

The G22 Awards judges described the product as ‘innovative and forward thinking’ and commented ‘with 95% recycled aluminium, slim sightlines, reverse butt joint, and with compliance with current and possible future regulations, this really gives installers a viable option in a competitive market.’
