REHAU has announced its inaugural Windows, Doors and Curtain Walling Surgery will be held on Thursday 15th October at the recently opened REHAU Hub in The Building Centre, London.
The surgery is aimed at construction professionals who want to discuss the fenestration requirements on any of their planned projects. Individual 45 minutes slots will be available to book with REHAU Commercial Manager Kevin O’Neill, offering free tailored solutions and expert advice.
Kevin explained: “In many of my meetings with architects and specifiers, they tell me how challenging it is to keep up to date with the ever changing standards and regulations governing this sector and to stay in touch with the latest developments in things like coloured PVC-U and Passivhaus solutions.
This new initiative means that they can book a dedicated slot with me at The REHAU Hub and I will address all of the regulatory or technical issues which apply on any projects they’re working on and give them technical and design advice.”
The event will cover topics from wind loading and U-Values to fire ratings, acoustics and Passivhaus specifications. It aims to share best practice and give practical, personalised help for individual builds and developments.
Surgery slots are available from 9am – 6pm on 15th October.
