BS 7412 is the British
Standard for the manufacture of PVCu windows. The standard itself
specifies that the sections used are themselves manufactured to the
requirements of another British Standard namely BS 7413. The standard
covers the window construction, security, safety, weather tightness,
operation and strength of the windows produced. To maintain this
standard rigorous inspection and testing procedures have been developed.
Each window undergoes 3 in-process inspections as well as an end of line
inspection involving a 20-point check against the customer's order. In
order to monitor weld performance, daily samples are taken from the
welding machines and tested to destruction.
