Safestyle UK: Quality Assured!

At Safestyle we work in partnership with top UK companies including Pilkington Glass and Plastmo. We’re also members of the top industry trade bodies, the Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF) and adhere to their strict Code of Practice. Through the Fenestration Self-Assessment Scheme (FENSA), you can be sure we comply with all relevant building regulations.

Energy Saving Recommended

“Energy Saving Recommended” is an initiative from the Energy Saving Trust backed by the Government.

If you see the Energy Saving Recommended logo you can be sure that the product is particularly energy efficient, and now Safestyle UK has set the benchmark in the industry with our new 2008 Diamond Window, which is Energy Saving Recommended as standard!

Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF)

Safestyle UK is a full member of the Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF). The GGF is the recognised body for companies in the flat glass, glazing, window, home improvement and plastics industries in the UK. Being members of the GGF means you can be sure we’ve been fully vetted and meet their very high standards.

FENSA

In 2002 the law changed meaning that all new replacement windows and doors in the UK had to meet tough government standards for conservation of heat in the home, energy efficiency, fire escape functions, ventilation and disabled access – all in addition to the existing Building Regulations. Safestyle UK joined FENSA to reassure our customers that every double glazed window and door we fit complies with these very high standards.

We’re proud to announce that in both 2004 and 2005, our work has achieved a 100% pass rate on all random inspections conducted by FENSA, both during and after installation.

Our relationship with FENSA also means that we are constantly updated with the latest Building Regulations, and all our products conform to the most recent Building Regulations criteria as set out by FENSA.
