Martindales Trade Frames expands with new trade counter in Kent
Martindales Trade Frames Limited (MTF UK), a leading PVCu and aluminium windows and doors fabricator, is marking over 20 years of success with the launch of a brand-new trade counter in Kent. Headquartered in Bolton, Greater Manchester, MTF UK has been a proud VEKA fabricator since 2006 and has continued to grow year on year. The next chapter in their expansion will see the opening of their Kent trade counter at New Hythe Business Park, Aylesford, on 9th October 2025.
The open day, taking place on 9th October, will be an opportunity for trade professionals and VEKA Installers to meet the local MTF UK team, network with industry leaders, and see the latest product innovations first-hand.
Tony Crowther, Director at MTF UK, commented: “We’re really excited to bring MTF UK to Kent and to welcome trade professionals to our new counter on New Hythe Business Park, Aylesford. The open day is a chance to meet the team who will be serving this region and to experience some incredible innovations from our partners. Together with VEKA, Total Hardware and Ultion, we’ve created a real showstopper.”
On display will be VEKA System 10 casement windows in the bevelled finish, available in VEKA’s new Feinstruktur foils – showcased in both Anthracite Grey and Black. This next-generation foil finish, exclusively available from VEKA, is engineered with built-in protection against scratches, fingerprints and dirt, offering installers and homeowners alike a durable and stylish solution.
MTF UK has also partnered with Total Hardware, who are supplying the Yale SensCheck smart window sensor technology for the demonstration windows. SensCheck allows homeowners to monitor the status of their windows remotely through the Yale Smart Living Home App, delivering added convenience and peace of mind.
Together with Ultion, MTF will also showcase their chosen locking barrels: Ultion’s ALPS solutions meet the toughest 2024 security standards and are proven to protect against six common break-in methods, including thermal manipulation and twist attack. For installers and homeowners alike, Ultion delivers the reassurance of cutting-edge protection combined with ease of use.
As part of the day, Tony also highlighted that the event is not just for existing VEKA installers:
“Installers in the area who are not currently fitting VEKA will find this open day a great opportunity to learn about the system first-hand. VEKA is a market leader for a reason, and this is the chance to see its quality, innovation, and installer-friendly features up close.”
Attendees can expect live demonstrations and plenty of opportunities to learn more about the products on display. Teams from MTF UK, VEKA, Total Hardware, and Ultion will all be present, sharing insights, technical guidance, and marketing support designed to help trade partners and installers make the most of these cutting-edge solutions.
