From recent industry data, aluminium has never been more popular. Its durability and environmental credentials, coupled with its always-impressive aesthetics, make it an incredibly attractive option in today’s market.
Here at Mercury Glazing, our aluminium offer is impressive and has been designed to help installers tap into all the opportunities in aluminium right now.
It starts with our product portfolio, which showcases aluminium’s versatility across residential, new build and commercial applications, as well as its ability to deliver everything from heritage style to modern chic.
It includes the Alitherm 400 Aluminium Window, which is suitable for both commercial and residential projects and brings the understated style of a traditional casement window.
The Alitherm Heritage 47 Aluminium Window has been engineered to replace existing steel windows.
The contemporary Alitherm 800 Window takes influence from traditional timber frames, making it an unobtrusive and elegant option for modern spaces.
The Smart VS 600 Vertical Slider System can be used in heritage and conservation areas and is also suitable for high-occupancy buildings.
When it comes to bifold doors, we have recently added the Stellar Slimline Bifold Door, which provides the sturdy reliability you’d expect from a bifold but with the added touch of slimline sashes and a truly modern design. At 117mm in width, its slim meeting stiles give a great view, ensuring the glass remains the focal point.
We also have the Smart Visofold Series of aluminium bifold doors, which offers impressive opening apertures. And there’s also the Cortizo Aluminium Bifold Door, which can accommodate up to 14 sashes.
The Cortizo 4700 Aluminium Sliding Patio Door, which is ideal for large apertures, is available both in slide and lift & slide versions and offers a reduced interlock section and large glazed areas.
The AluSpace Internal Screening System can be used to divide or delineate residential and commercial spaces of any shape and size, while at the same time providing an effective acoustic barrier.
Completing the line-up is our range of Smart Signature Aluminium Doors, which covers a wide range of designs, colours and styles so there’s something for every style of home.
Alongside our product portfolio, Mercury customers also benefit from our commitment to excellence.
All products are manufactured in our state-of-the-art facilities in Gloucester. We recently opened a third manufacturing unit so we can keep pace with continued demand, and we’ve made considerable investments in automation machinery.
We have recently embarked on a lean manufacturing journey to optimise our manufacturing processes, enhance efficiency and, ultimately, deliver continued value to our customers. Just three months into our journey, we had our first ‘GREEN’ day, with all performance metrics meeting or exceeding targets.
We believe in investing in our personnel to nurture talent from within, equip them with the skills and knowledge required to excel and continually deliver manufacturing excellence. We have enrolled four of our manufacturing team on the Level 3 NVQ manufacturing programme supported by the government’s apprenticeship scheme. The qualification will give our employees a comprehensive understanding of advanced manufacturing techniques and principles, helping to deliver enhanced value to our customers.
Above everything is our focus on customer service. From consultation to installation, our team will be with you every step of the way. To enhance this commitment, we recently appointed an Internal Sales Coordinator to proactively support the customer journey, ensuring a seamless experience from initial enquiry to long-term account support.
Our commitment to excellence, combined with our 20+ years’ experience in the industry, has made us one of the UK’s foremost fabricators of premium-quality windows and doors. Whether you’re considering aluminium to your portfolio for the first time or want to partner with a fabricator who can take your aluminium opportunities to the next level, give us a call. We’ll be delighted to show you how Mercury could benefit your business.
