CWG Choices, Simple, Sustainable, Compliant Aluminium Windows and Doors
CWG Choices Limited
The UK's largest window and door manufacturer to the trade only offering the widest range of products from one supplier
Sustainable business is at the very heart of CWG Choices Customer Strategy.? With the advent of the statutory reduction in U value’s to satisfy both refurbishment and new build requirements since 15 June 2022, it has been very difficult for a lot of Aluminium Window & Door manufacturers to demonstrate compliance – CWG Simple Sustainable Complaint Aluminium Window and Door Range makes it easy.
Sustainable Business Responsibility
Chris Powell, MD begins, “We see sustainability as having three pillars of responsibility: business, social and environmental. The first factor of sustainable business is choosing a partner which is viable for the long term, we have seen many window and door manufacturers leave the industry in the last 18 months alone, by not controlling their costs in line with demand or simply by not charging enough, the problem with a cheap price, which of course is initially attractive, is that installers have been left underwriting thousands of 10 year product guarantee’s to their customers.”
The second part of being a responsible business is ensuring the windows and doors being supplied are appropriately accredited and evidenced and those accreditations are managed via an auditable Quality Assurance system.? It’s no secret that tens of thousands of windows are entering the UK market without the required compliance or evidence, and that’s scary.? Again it will be the installer that ultimately suffers, if and when inspected, as they will be responsible for replacing the windows and doors from a supplier that can offer the certification and evidence.

SUSTAINABLE comprehensive window and door solutions in Aluminium
Meeting current U value requirements has been a technical challenge with aluminium window and door systems, many fabricators have still not presented solutions.? It’s the statutory duty of the installing contractor to ensure that they are replacing windows and doors in residential dwellings that meet the thermal insulation performance required.? By doing so we are not only complying, but we are ensuring energy efficiency and therefore reducing energy wastage and greenhouse gas emissions resulting.? At CWG Choices we make it easy for our customers to ensure they have the right products to demonstrate this duty.
Furthermore by partnering on the tried and trusted ALUK HI platforms, our aluminium window and doors products have been manufactured with up to 78% Recycled Aluminium Billet.
