Family run since 1989 and based in Scarborough, SWC Trade Frames is a large regional fabricator of premium quality PVCu & Aluminium windows, doors, conservatory roofs and specialist products, such as vertical sash sliding windows, shaped frames and composite doors. They manufacture in excess of 1,000 frames per week and supply exclusively to the trade.
Coating and finishing is key to SWC giving their customers colour choice and with the massive rise in painted finishes, SWC has had a new custom Schubox gas catalytic infrared drying system installed in their factory.
The new Schubox will slash drying times for both solvent and water based PVC and GRP coatings from multiple hours to just 45 minutes. The Schubox uses an intrinsically safe gas catalytic infrared technology to cure the coatings very rapidly at a low temperature of 35-38c. This improves quality, reduces work in progress, and means the turn-around time for sprayed product is cut dramatically.
Rhys Richings, MD of SWC, says: “The Schuberts guys, from start to finish, were fantastic and we’ll certainly pass on our recommendations.”
Chris Widdowfield, Engineer at SWC, says “Had the pleasure of engaging a very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable team of installation engineers this week. A lovely job well done. Thank you Schuberts.”
