The UK's leading designer and supplier of composite aluminium and timber window systems, AM Profiles, has seen phenomenal growth in the composite window market over the last few years. To capture a greater share of the growing UK market AM Profiles are now developing a new generation of window system, named 'Design-5'. The single system accommodates all open out conditions, including casement and reversibles, and is specifically designed for the UK market. Managing Director, Alistair McBain explains "The new system perfectly combines the traditional construction of timber with the exceptional clean lines of extruded aluminium, the resulting window offers the best of both materials and is perfectly at home in the commercial and domestic markets. In all areas of sustainability, insulation, structure and recyclability, there is currently no match in the UK market for our new Design-5 system".

The new 'Design-5' system is a range of extruded profiles which clip onto a traditional constructed window using a patented nylon clip. The aluminium forms the outside surface of the window and incorporates the beading system, weatherstrips, gaskets and carries any aluminium finish required. The inside timber surface can be machined to suit the aesthetics for domestic or commercial use and can be finished in any traditional manner. Multipoint locking can be incorporated for additional security and weathertightness.

Prior to the UK launch of the 'Design-5' system to specifiers later in 2006, AM Profiles are inviting companies with traditional timber window machinery to contact them to discuss the possible adoption of the system and the granting of a license to manufacture. It is expected that with a fabrication network of trained 'Design-5' window manufacturers there should be no shortage of window supply when builders and specifiers wish to use the system later in the year.

AM Profiles is located in Chesterfield and can be contacted on +44 (0) 1246 856 000, emailed on sales@amprofiles.com or visit their new Design-5 website at www.design-5.co.uk
