Country Hardwood upgrades premium range

UK timber specialist Country Hardwood has upgraded its premium window and door range with the introduction of high-performance glazing that offers a U-value of just 0.7.

The Buckinghamshire-based manufacturer has incorporated the advanced 0.7 U-value glass into its bespoke hardwood windows and doors, allowing its products to exceed current Building Regulation requirements for thermal efficiency.

With a 10-week lead time and nationwide delivery service, Country Hardwood offers trade professionals a comprehensive range of timber solutions including windows, doors, orangeries and roof lanterns. All products are available in premium hardwoods including sapele, idigbo and oak, with sustainably sourced timber as standard.

This recent glazing upgrade will allow installers, architects and developers to future-proof their projects while still delivering the premium aesthetics that high-end clients demand.

Mark Osborne, Managing Director at Country Hardwood, commented: “With thermal efficiency becoming an increasing concern, we’re providing solutions that go beyond compliance with current Building Regulations, and look to the future of energy efficient design.”

The high-performance glazing complements Country Hardwood’s innovative wrap-around locking system, creating a complete package that combines efficiency with superior security.

Manufactured at the company’s Buckinghamshire facility, which recently received a £700,000 investment in specialist CNC machinery, these products benefit from a combination of traditional joinery techniques and modern technology.

Mark added: “With energy efficiency at the forefront of the construction industry, we’ve invested significantly in developing solutions that don’t just meet but exceed regulatory requirements.

“Our new high-performance glazing, combined with our premium timber frames, offers installers and developers a product that delivers outstanding thermal efficiency without compromising on aesthetics or sustainability.”
