Groupco Swings into Action

PN UNI System hardware from Groupco has been specified for replacement windows for the UK head office of Eschmann Equipment, the market leading hospital equipment manufacturer. The fully reversible PN UNI groove system offers a flexible solution for all window styles together with emergency egress, window restriction and easy cleaning.

Gloucestershire-based Cotswold Windows completed fabrication and installation of new PVCu windows as part of the refurbishment of Eschmann’s three-storey premises in Lancing, West Sussex. A total of 165 top swing reversible windows, each approximately 6ft x 4ft, have been installed to replace the building’s outdated aluminium vertical sliders.

Established for over 25 years, Cotswold Windows specialises in high quality PVCu products for both the commercial and domestic markets. ‘Reversible windows are a popular product line and we particularly like the PN UNI System from Groupco because it’s so quick and easy to fabricate.

Unlike other fittings of this type, it needs very little machining and just screws into the window profile,’ says John Davies, Managing Director of Cotswold Windows.

Besides ease of fabrication, the PN UNI System is also fitter-friendly and simple to operate and maintain. Once installed the window can be reversed 180o for convenient cleaning from the inside.

A long established supplier of quality door and window fittings, Groupco was appointed UK distributor for the PN UNI System Universal Hardware for Windows by Peder Nielsen of Denmark almost two years ago. The System can be used for top swing, side swing, projecting top hung, projecting side hung and side hung window styles. The universal groove fixing is suitable for use with PVCu, aluminium, timber and composite profile.

PN UNI System hardware is designed to ensure a similar aesthetic appearance for all window styles, irrespective of individual window function. Featuring a sturdy construction and low maintenance, the PN UNI System was developed to meet the latest UK demands for strength and function. Copies of relevant test reports are available on request.
