The Window Company produces ‘safe and ready’ video

Award winning commercial installer, The Window Company (Contracts), has produced its own online video reassuring customers that it is safe and ready to get back to work (https://youtu.be/KgBXdtJ_XD8). 

The video, filmed at the company’s Chelmsford HQ, shows the team stocking up with all the necessary PPE and operating in line with the social distancing guidelines.

Chairman David Thornton said: “As our customers would expect, we are following all the general advice from the government on working on sites and in people’s homes, as well as the more detailed advice from the GGF specifically around window and door installation.

“This video communicates that in just a couple of minutes, as well as giving an added level of reassurance that our teams are trained and, above all, equipped to keep our staff, our customers and our on-site colleagues safe.”

Having invested in two full weeks’ worth of stock before the lockdown restrictions were imposed, The Window Company (Contracts) was more prepared than many to get straight back to work. 

David Thornton added: “When we saw what was happening across the rest of the world, we anticipated that restrictions would come into place here and potentially impact on our business. We made the decision at that point to order stock for all of our ongoing contracts, so that we could start installing again as soon as was deemed safe, without having to rely on fabricators and component suppliers further up the chain who might not be in a position to supply us straightaway.”
