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.’
