NEW DESIGN OPTIONS
FOR GRIPCORE
SALES GROWTH FOR THE TRIED AND TRUSTED TRISYS™ GLAZING CASSETTE FROM ODL EUROPE ODL Europe has reported continued sales growth for its tried and trusted TriSYS™ glazing cassette. Nathan Barr, Managing Director of ODL Europe, explains: “TriSYS™ is the market-leading composite door glazing system for a reason. It’s packed with innovative features that make assembly quick and easy while still delivering outstanding quality to our customers. We’ve seen unprecedented demand in recent months and continue to build up healthy stock levels using our in-house injection moulding capabilities as we continue to supply our growing customer base.”
GRiPCORE, the new solid core composite door from DOORCO, is now available with an exclusive design portfolio which includes new and updated door styles, 25 new colours and 7 exclusive glass choices. The collection is available to view in a dedicated brochure, which also showcases FLiP, DOORCO’s own door glazing cassette system. Ben Aspinall, Marketing & IT Manager explains more about the new GRiPCORE collection and brochure: “GRiPCORE is an important addition to the DOORCO product portfolio. The new technology is a hybrid of modern and traditional materials that has been engineered to deliver a stronger, heavier and more robust door that will not move/bow/twist more than 3mm, crack or delaminate. It is truly the most engineered door we’ve ever produced and therefore deserves a fresh set of design options too. “GRiPCORE was launched earlier this year around the same time as FLiP, our exclusive new door glazing cassette system. With FLiP, the possibilities are endless, and we’ve made the most of the new options on GRiPCORE. We’ve given some of our
18
best-selling styles a facelift. For example, contemporary styles like Links Oakmont, Square, and the Augusta range have been transformed with the use of FLiP Flat Stipple. We’ve also introduced some new designs, like Pinehurst. Rather than traditional twin tops, has square glazing cassettes on a 6/4 Combi door blank. “To complement these new styles, we’ve added some exclusive new glass designs to the GRiPCORE portfolio. These include two designs by Jeyda, our Creative Consultant, which were commissioned during the first lockdown, as well as five exclusive designs from RegaLead. “No new collection is complete without a new colour range. For GRiPCORE, we’ve introduced a mix of heritage shades in a semi-matt finish, and some fresh new semigloss colours, like Bright Magenta, and of course, GRiPCORE Yellow. “All the chosen glass designs and colours have been hand-picked to suit the GRiPCORE brand and allow customers to take the design of this new product to the next level.”
The speed and ease of fitting are down to TriSYS™ intelligent design which
consists of just three parts. The outer frame and inner cassette screw together to hold the door glass into place and the inner frame then simply snaps on. An innovative clip system eliminates screw hole covers, giving a more attractive finish. It also means no preparation, no adhesion promotor and no special primers are needed. Nathan said: “Our TriSYS™ three-part glazing system is an intelligent and uncomplicated cassette system, and having been fitted in millions of doors worldwide, it comes with a tried and trusted pedigree.” TriSYS™ is available in a full range of sizes and a choice of colour options including white, red, green, blue,
black, grey, chartwell green, oak and rosewood. It is the tried and tested glazing cassette solution and meets PAS24:2016 and Secure by Design requirements. It is manufactured with high-performance resin, so it needs less long-term maintenance. As well as being the market leader, TriSYS™ is part of a value-added suite of glazing cassette systems from ODL Europe. The Craftsman Framing System is designed with architectural style in mind. The broad flat-profile frame is designed to blend perfectly with the finishing details on the door. And for true craftsmen door aesthetics a dentil shelf is also available. ZEEL™ is the next generation of glazing cassettes. It’s a sleek, versatile contemporary glazing cassette that blends seamlessly into the door, allowing the door glass to take centre stage. And the Spotlights® frame and glass system has been designed to provide the ultimate in design flexibility. TriSYS™ cassettes are manufactured in-house at ODL Europe’s Bootle headquarters, which gives the company complete control over its cassette production and eliminates the reliance on third parties.
