Glass Express Midlands is the first glass processing and IGU manufacturer to become members of the Council for Aluminium in Building (CAB), solidifying its support to the domestic and commercial architectural aluminium sector.
It joins over 140 different members, spanning across the supply chain, forming the largest aluminium building trade association in the UK.
“We are over the moon to be certified as members of CAB”, says Arun Photay, Glass Express Midlands Managing Director. “We pride ourselves on being a forward-thinking and dynamic business, and these values align perfectly with CAB’s mission.
“We’re excited to start attending CAB events and talking to other members – we can learn so much about the nuances of the sector from the businesses within CAB, which will then allow us to tailor our offering to further support aluminium projects.
“Equally, we feel that we have a lot of knowledge that we can pass along the supply chain about the glass side of the industry, which will be invaluable to businesses when they come to specify and install.”
Glass Express Midlands’ admission to CAB comes after the IGU manufacturers’ commitment to forge closer working relationships with the industry supply chain at its high-profile roundtable event in May 2024.
Held at an exclusive central London location, the guestlist included government representation, as well as representation by both the Glass & Glazing Federation (GGF) and CAB, during which the two trade associations agreed to work closer together to provide a unified voice to policymakers.
And with recent high-profile investments in products, infrastructure and technical support, Glass Express Midlands are relishing the opportunity to extend partnerships throughout the industry.
“I have always stressed my commitment to professionalism and streamlining communication within the sector”, says Arun. “Being part of a trade association like CAB will allow Glass Express Midlands to partner with more forward-thinking businesses, and give us the opportunity to broaden our knowledge and service offering to meet more of the industry’s ever-evolving needs.”
