Spectus marks Mercury’s 15th anniversary in business

To help Mercury Glazing Supplies Limited mark its 15th year in business, Spectus recently presented company owners and Directors Steve Cross and Martin Halford with a commemorative plaque. Paul Lindsay, Epwin Window Systems’ Sales Director, said: “We were delighted to present this plaque to Steve and Martin. We have worked with them and their team throughout Mercury’s 15 year history and we have a very strong and productive relationship.”

Mercury is one of the UK’s largest fabricators of Spectus’ market-leading Vertical Slider and enjoys a close continuous partnership with the systems house. The partnership looks set to grow even stronger as Mercury plans to grow its business by 35% in the next three years. Paul commented: “Mercury is a progressive business that offers a good quality and service and we value the strength of the relationship we have with them.”

Mercury has succeeded for the past 15 years because it is a company dedicated to exceeding customer expectations. In the Spectus Vertical Slider it has got a product that does just that.

Attention to detail and precision crafting make it one of the best PVC-U alternatives to traditional timber box sash windows on the market. Equal sash widths, traditional ovolo styling on all planes, flush gaskets, a deep bottom rail and a 128mm frame all ensure beautifully authentic aesthetics. Dedicated end caps and cills plus optional features such as a weather bar or Georgian bars give the ability to add bespoke features. And with the latest addition of a mechanically jointed option, the authentic aesthetics of the window go to the next level when needed.

While the aesthetics are beautifully authentic, the Spectus VS is a 21st century window at heart. It’s available in the 28 colours of Spectus’ Spectrum range (including 10 colours from stock). It is easy to open thanks to the spiral balance mechanism while travel stops ensure child safety. It can achieve a Window Energy Rating of A+ and a U value of 1.3W/m2K. It is PAS24 compliant and designed to achieve Secured by Design status. It is practical for installers too: it has 150mm and 210mm cills and 10mm/20mm/50mm frame packers for maximum flexibility in the installation.

A company committed to excellence supplying a product that leads the market for good reason. It’s hardly surprising that Mercury and Spectus have enjoyed such a productive 15 years!
