For the fourth year in a row, Thermoseal Group is sponsoring the Champagne Reception at the prestigious G-Awards Gala Dinner presentation evening held on 29th November 2013 at London’s world-famous Park Lane Hilton Hotel. Dave Jones, The VEKA UK Group’s MD, comments: “This is a fantastic result for us. The G Awards provide a fantastic opportunity for businesses in the glass and glazing industry to be recognised for their hard work and outstanding achievements, and to be shortlisted for four awards is yet another incredible accomplishment for The VEKA UK Group. “Our listing in the Commercial Project of the Year category comes following our work with customer S&A Developments on two social housing projects in Wigan. The Darwen-based fabricator manufactured the 1000 windows required, using VEKA’s Infinity recycled profile system. Infinity is a high-spec system that offers great sustainability benefits, as well as energy efficiency, which made it the ideal system for these projects.” The Group is also listed for Environmental Initiative, following an entry that showcased the industry-leader’s massive 2208 tonne saving of carbon since 2008, using various energy saving measures.
