4 . IT ’ S NOT EUROCELL Although Liniar ’ s CEO Roger Hartshorn was instrumental in the creation of the Eurocell business and brand , it ’ s safe to say the Liniar system is totally different .
Having the experience of launching a PVCu system in a previous life meant that Roger and his team knew all the challenges brought by modern legislation – and they were able to use this experience to incorporate the latest technology and market needs in a brand new , state of the art system .
By creating the Liniar system from scratch , they could build in patented features such as Liniar ’ s unique glazing flipper , bubble gasket and bespoke glazing platform – enabling windows to achieve A ++ ratings with ease and at the same time enabling fabricators to increase their output .
5 . LINIAR HAS OUTDOOR PRODUCTS TOO
If you ’ ve only heard of Liniar windows and doors , you ’ d be forgiven for not realising the company also has a range of outdoor products , including decking and fencing systems .
The multi-chambered PVCu used in the fencing and balustrades is surprisingly strong , and can be foiled for a realistic finish . Already popular with holiday home owners all over the UK , PVCu decking and fencing is becoming increasingly popular for domestic and landscaping use , thanks to its low maintenance properties .
6 . THE ENVIRONMENT AGENCY IS A LINIAR CUSTOMER
All of the waste PVCu generated by the Liniar factory is recycled and made into other non-window products such as piling , which is used in a wide variety of applications . Plastic piling is much easier to transport and install than its steel counterpart , so it ’ s ideal for the Environment Agency and similar organisations to use in rural and moorland areas . It forms a watertight barrier , so it ’ s ideal for protecting flood plains , as well as being used for bank retention in ponds , lakes and streams all over the UK .
Liniar ’ s log pile has an attractive wood-effect appearance and is popular with landscapers and developers for multi-level terrain where an attractive finish is required .
7 . HEALTHY WORK-LIFE BALANCE
They say a healthy body creates a healthy mind – and the extra-curricular activities of the team at Liniar may help to explain some of the innovation emanating from the systems house !
A team of 17 completed the grueling Wolf Run last Spring ; in addition to the various half and full marathon runners , cyclists and triathletes that fund raise regularly for great causes . And with two Liniar marketing team members taking part in GM Fundraising ’ s allfemale Paddle 2 Pedal in August this year , it ’ s safe to say the Liniar team like a challenge !
