Industry Updates & Emerging Trends in Sash Window Design and Installation

#14 July 2023

Boost Your Sash Window Business with New Revenue Streams

Welcome to issue 14 of our July newsletter!

In this issue, we'll explore recent industry updates and emerging trends in sash window design and installation. As the market continues to evolve, we're happy to share these developments with you so that you can stay ahead of the curve.

Energy Efficiency and Sustainability

In response to growing concerns about climate change and increasing energy costs, sash window manufacturers have been refining their designs to improve energy efficiency. Double and triple-glazed sash windows are becoming more popular as they provide better insulation, reduce heat loss, and lower energy bills. These eco-friendly windows also contribute to a greener environment thanks to their sustainable materials and reduced carbon footprint.

Smart Home Integration

With the rise of smart home technology, sash window designs have started to incorporate features that allow for seamless integration into a connected living space. By adding sensors, motorized sashes, and smart locks, homeowners can now control their sash windows remotely, monitor security, and improve energy efficiency. This not only enhances convenience but also adds a modern touch to the classic sash window design.

Heritage and Conservation-Friendly Designs

As awareness of the importance of preserving our architectural heritage grows, so does the demand for sash windows that are compatible with listed buildings and conservation areas. Manufacturers have risen to the challenge by developing slimline glazing options and using traditional joinery techniques that maintain the authentic look and feel of period properties while still providing modern performance.

Customisation and Personalisation

Homeowners are increasingly seeking bespoke sash window designs that reflect their unique tastes and preferences. This has led to a rise in customisation options, such as a wide range of colours, finishes, and hardware choices. Manufacturers like Landmark Windows are also offering specialised designs, such as curved or circular sash windows, to cater to the diverse needs of their clients and there period properties.

Acoustic Performance

With urban noise pollution on the rise, the demand for sash windows with improved acoustic performance has increased. Enhanced glazing and sealing options are available to reduce external noise, making homes more peaceful and comfortable.

As the sash window industry continues to innovate and adapt to the changing needs of homeowners. From energy efficiency and smart home integration to heritage preservation and personalisation, these emerging trends are redefining the future of sash window design and installation.
