ABOUT US

We’re the only UK-based manufacturer of Part L compliant bespoke upstands which work with any brand of rooflight.

WE’RE SOLVING AN INDUSTRY-WIDE PROBLEM

With decades of experience in the glazing industry, we’ve seen our fair share of poorly constructed upstands.

Common problems we encountered included: customers being left frustrated with cold and drafty rooms; builders having to construct upstands on-site to (hopefully) fit a rooflight; manufacturers not being able to offer an all-in-one product; resellers struggling to simplify their customers’ experiences architects wanting to specify a compliant upstand and not being able to.

Rooflight upstands needed a rethink. And because we work with rooflights every day, we knew we had the expertise to solve these industry-wide problems.
