Whitaker windows pass test with flying colours
As part of the Kitemark scheme, manufacturers are submitted to an annual random test of their windows to assess performance. During one such recent scrutiny carried out at Whitaker’s Denholme site, a window was selected at random from their normal production line. Subsequent testing revealed that it had achieved the highest standard (class 4 air permeability). Furthermore it was said to have passed the test with extreme competence.

This same window was weather tested and even under the maximum pressure of 1000Pa it showed absolutely no signs of leakage. Last but not least the window also passed BS 7950 security standard, and is therefore accepted by the Association of Chief Police Officers as meeting their preferred specification within the ‘Secured by Design’ initiative. This bears testimony to the outstanding performance of Whitaker Window products and Whitaker's commitment to research, testing and continuous improvement.
