Products & Conformance

Aluminium already scores highly on green credentials, being a recyclable material and having a long life-cycle and the development of our pioneering Advanced Plus window and door suites enhance these sustainable benefits further still. The range is the first of its kind to achieve an ‘A’ rating for the BRE Green Guide for Specification, and Level 4 in the Code for Sustainable Homes (CSH) achieving U-values as low as 1.3 w/m2K.

Beaufort work closely with many industry bodies and have assisted with the BRE Green Guide and CSH directives to provide guidance on achieving greater sustainability in the move towards zero carbon structures. The Green Guide evaluates the performance of building materials and systems against specific environmental impacts and the Code for Sustainable Homes Directive (CSH) measures the sustainability of a new building against categories of sustainable design, rating the ‘whole building’ as a complete package.

The innovative design of our products makes it possible to achieve a low U-value without the need for specialist or expensive glazing, so specifiers, architects and contractors don’t have to resort to more costly solutions to meet the required energy efficiency, sustainability and environmental ratings. This enables the entire supply chain to benefit from these advantages and allows the unique ability to combine high sustainability and excellent performance with exceptional cost-efficiency.

Beaufort continue to strive to push the boundaries on product use, application and performance and endeavour to ensure that products meet the overall corporate strategy for going carbon neutral.
