JELD-WEN signposts sector-specific standards

JELD-WEN UK, a leading UK manufacturer of high-quality timber doorsets, has launched a new brochure to support easier specification across a range of market sectors – and to highlight its commitment to sustainability.   

The brochure has been designed to provide specifiers with all the information they need across a range of sector-specific uses, including education, hospitality, healthcare, residential settings, student accommodation and offices. 

Recognising the increased importance of a demonstrated ESG policy in the supply chain, the brochure clearly sets out the company’s commitment to sustainability. Taking a top-level view, the brochure clearly signposts performance testing for standards including acoustics, fire resistance, durability and security – as well as guarantee details and fire door data tagging capability. 

Further to highlighting the testing needed for use in a particular sector, the brochure flags up the additional technical expertise offered by JELD-WEN to support accurate specification at the earliest stage of a project, including QR links to the NBS specification platform and CPD training. 

Breaking down the qualities of the door by project application, the brochure also includes details such as DDA compliance, Part M compliance, access control, and bespoke sizing. 

It also sets out JELD-WEN’s key sustainability targets and benchmarks the company’s performance in meeting these. 

The brochure also details how the company can support compliance under the Building Safety Act through third-party certification and the use of its recently launched fire door data pin, which is embedded into fire doorsets to store vital information to evidence the golden thread through the product’s lifetime.
