The Window Company (Contracts) continues to set the pace in the commercial installation market with news that it has just been accredited to the very latest occupational health and safety standard ISO45001: 2018.

Developed to replace OHSAS18001, ISO45001: 2018 is designed to improve employee safety, reduce workplace risks and create better, safer working conditions.

The Window Company (Contracts) has reinforced its commitment to the charitable foundation run by its client MOAT Housing with a second donation of £10K.

The Chelmsford based commercial installer, which is partnered with MOAT on its window and door replacement framework for properties across Essex, London, Kent, Surrey and Sussex, is giving more backing to the MOAT Foundation’s community hubs.

The company’s original £10K donation in November 2018 helped to fund the opening of a brand new community hub in Maldon, Essex, and this additional £10K will now allow the hub to scale up the range of services it offers to local residents. This includes everything from job clubs and digital skills workshops to activity sessions for the elderly and young children.

Award winning commercial installer The Window Company (Contracts) proudly boasts that it has the best trained workforce in the industry, with a comprehensive individual training plan in place for every member of its team.

So determined is it to set the very highest installation standards in the industry that it has put together a CPD for clients to help them get the most from every window and door installer they work with.

The first client to benefit from the CPD was Moat, which is partnered with The Window Company (Contracts) on the window and door replacement framework for its properties across Essex, London, Kent, Surrey and Sussex. Moat sent a team to The Window Company (Contracts)’ Chelmsford premises recently to try out the CPD for themselves.

When the first Kommerling frames came off the production line at Genius PVC Trade Frames in Norwich, they were headed directly for a large scale commercial refurbishment project being carried out by The Window Company (Contracts) for Chelmsford City Council.

David Thornton, chairman of the award winning* commercial installer, went along to see the frames for himself and to congratulate Pete Dyson and David Eagle, the two men who are the brains behind Genius, on their new venture.

He said: “We had worked with Pete and David and their production director Steve Wood before when they were at one of our existing suppliers and had always been impressed with how they operated and how they looked after customers. As soon as they announced the launch of Genius, we were keen to work with them again and, at the same time, to add another Kommerling fabricator to our list of partners.”
