MADE IN
BRITAIN

A WARM WELCOME
»»HomePro is exhibiting at FIT

Yet again, Universal Arches will be
enticing visitors to its stand at this
year’s FIT show with a chance to
win the latest generation iPad.
»»Visitors will be given a lanyard
with their entrance badges
and a key attached. The key
can then be used to attempt
to open the Union Jack
arched composite door on the
stand.

There will be a variety of
carefully crafted PVCu frames
on the stand, including a
shaped heart and a fully
fabricated Union Jack,
which will also be sprayed to
incorporate the colours and
features of the three older
national flags: the red cross of
St George of the Kingdom of
England, the white saltire of
St Andrew for Scotland and
the red saltire of St Patrick to
represent Ireland.
Leon Day, managing director
of Universal Arches commented:
“This year, with our distinctive
‘Made in Britain’ theme, we
are looking forward to meet
customers old and new and
have an opportunity to network
with our peers in the industry.”

BEST IN CLASS
»»Window industry software specialist,
Windowlink, will be hitting April’s FIT Show
to promote its best-in-class design, sales
and pricing applications.
The Gloucester-based developer will
use laptops and tablets to show installers
how its intuitive software can help them
improve conversion rates, upsell more
effectively, and convey trustworthiness and
professionalism to end-users.
Windowlink’s main applications,
Vector for conservatories and orangeries
and Focus for windows and doors,
allow installers to create impressive

3D visualisations of their products,
enabling the homeowners to see exactly
what they’re buying. A pricing module
allows both installers and end-users to
keep track of how much the proposed
project would cost – a feature that is
dramatically improving the relationship
between salespeople and their prospect
customers.
“We’ve exhibited at the FIT Show on
both previous occasions,” said Windowlink
MD, Mark Dudley. “For us, it’s the perfect
opportunity to show off our products – we
always find that when installers get to see

Vector and Focus in action, they’re very
quickly won over by how easy they are to
use, and the difference they can make to
their sales.
