PAS-24 Certified XL Tilt & Turn Windows
With the support of our industry partners VEKA UK and Consort Windows, we can now offer the only PAS-24 certified Tilt & Turn Window System in Scotland tested up to sizes of 2650mm tall and 1400mm wide.
A full new product presentation and CPD session will be delivered for this exclusive addition to our product portfolio.
Triple28 Slim Triple Glazed Units
Join us to find out more about Triple28 - which brings all the benefits triple glazing has always promised, but with none of the hurdles.
Fully compatible with traditional double-glazing frames, and only 15% heavier than a double-glazed unit, Triple28 makes better thermal performance and security as easy as any other installation.
The revolutionary suspended Monolithic Glass Core delivers triple-glazed performance within existing profiles, hardware, and workflow.
It’s installed just like a double-glazed unit: the same tools, the same techniques, the same installation time, just better outcomes.
Masterframe Bygone Sash Windows
Masterframe UK have been a long-standing key supplier of Thistle and we truly believe their low-maintenance uPVC Sash Windows are the best available in the market.
Find out more about the Bygone Sash Window Collection with a presentation delivered by our partners at Masterframe.
Their high-quality, uPVC Sash Windows are virtually indistinguishable from timber and are an excellent choice for replacing like-for-like within conservation areas across the city and shire.
Sunflex Aluminium Sliding Doors
Our supplier partner Sunflex UK will be delivering a presentation on their high-quality Aluminium Bi-Fold and Sliding Doors, all available through Thistle.
Of note is Sunflex's triple track Aluminium Sliding Doors, featuring a slim meeting rail (as low as 20mm) and is flush-stacked when fully opened.
Sunflex's products all undertake a unique pre-anodising process prior to powdercoating for an exceptional marine-grade finish that is particularly suited to North East Scotland.
