UAP Ltd’s Award-Winning Soterian TS008 Letterplate Receives Updated BSI Kitemark

UAP Ltd is thrilled to announce that its acclaimed Soterian TS008 letterplate has received an updated TS008 certification from BSI Kitemark. This prestigious update reinforces UAP's commitment to quality, safety, and innovation in the fenestration industry.

The Soterian TS008: A Benchmark in Security and Convenience

The Soterian TS008 letterplate, available in both standard and slim versions, is a standout product in the UK market. The Soterian Slim version is particularly noteworthy as the most compact TS008-compliant letterplate ever produced. Designed for 44mm-70mm composite, timber, and uPVC doors, the Soterian letterplate ensures quick and easy installation, providing end-users with a secure and reliable solution.

David Jennings, CEO of UAP Ltd, expressed his pride in the product: “The Soterian letterplate is undoubtedly our flagship product here at UAP. It has its own dedicated team and workshop at our Bury base, with boxes being shipped all over the world every day. Alongside our Fire Door Maintenance training centre, the letterplate has put our company on the map for fire safety and specification. The updated TS008 certification acts as further proof of our commitment to the fire sector and innovation across the fenestration industry as a whole.”

A Legacy of Innovation and Excellence

The Soterian TS008 letterplate was designed in-house by UAP’s former Technical Services Director, John McLoughlin. Since its introduction, it has garnered numerous awards, including the Best Technical Innovation at last year’s GGP Awards. The updated BSI Kitemark certification is the latest accolade, underscoring the product’s exceptional quality and performance.

Behind these accolades is UAP’s unwavering dedication to fire safety and security. As David Jennings elaborates, “The Soterian stands for everything we stand for here at UAP. Industry is built on innovation. At UAP, we have in-house technical teams and our own testing lab to ensure every product is designed and developed to the highest standard there is – our own.”

Beyond the Product: Comprehensive Fire Safety Solutions

UAP’s commitment extends beyond just providing top-notch products. The opening of the Fire Door Maintenance training centre earlier this year marks a significant milestone in UAP’s journey towards enhancing fire safety education and awareness. This centre aims to equip specifiers, architects, and installers with the knowledge and skills necessary to use and install fire safety products effectively.

“When it comes to testing and certification, having the right products is crucial, but so is confidence and competence in every other stage of the process,” says Jennings. “At UAP, we provide it all.”
