BBA Xtralite’s
goal of ensuring quality product design and installation is exemplified
in the work with the BBA (British
Board of Agrément),the
organisation partnered with Government and whose Governing Board
includes representation on behalf of the office of the Deputy Prime
Minister The BBA's Agrément Certificates have been providing
authoritative and independent information on the performance of building
products for over 35years. In relation to Xtralite, the BBA's Sales
and Marketing Director, Alan Thomas says;
‘The increasing use of rooflights
to introduce natural light and ventilation into buildings is giving
a lift to all kinds of properties throughout the UK
. .As ever, though, it is important to ensure that the rooflight
system chosen is up to the job and I am delighted that Xtralite
has sought and gained BBA Approval for its range. The BBA assessment
included resistance to weathering, wind and snow loads as well
as rain, with thermal performance. Condensation risks were also
evaluated along with soft body tests for non-fragility. Xtralite’s
BBA certificate allows specifiers and purchasers nationwide to
specify and select Xtralite rooflights in the knowledge that they
have been put through the mill at the BBA and have been shown to
be fit for purpose .And of course our interest in a product doesn't
end with the award of the BBA Certificate: we carry out surveillance
visits throughout the validity of the Certificate to make sure
the product specification is exactly the same as we originally
approved—another good reason for selecting BBA Approved products.’
