Norwich-based fabricator Genius PVC Trade Frames has bolstered its security credentials by achieving both PAS24 self-certification and Secured by Design (SBD) accreditation for its entire product range, including its long-standing Kömmerling offerings and the newly launched Deceuninck systems.

Through a partnership with CENSolutions Ltd, Genius has achieved 3rd Party Certification via ER Certification Ltd (UKAS) and PAS24:2022, BS6375 testing via ERC Testing Ltd, under the CENSolutions CMS scheme for their products with new hardware options. This allows Genius to reduce reliance on system suppliers for certification, streamlining the process and enabling faster market responses and quicker introduction of innovative products.

Thomas Weston, Managing Director of Genius, commented: “These are two significant milestones for Genius. The 3rd Party certification capability means we can quickly adapt to new hardware options and product specifications. The SBD accreditation also provides our customers with a competitive advantage when bidding for projects where security is a priority. It’s just another example of our commitment to innovation and helping our customers succeed in a competitive market.”

The PAS24:2022 CMS certification process, developed in partnership with CENSolutions Ltd, involved creating a comprehensive Factory Production Control (FPC) Manual that meets BS EN14351-1:2006 +A2 2016 and PAS24:2022 requirements.

Michael Laney from CENSolutions Ltd added: “Genius’s certification capability enables more agile product development, reducing time-to-market for new designs. This strategic move positions them well for future growth, and CENSolutions Ltd is proud to continue supporting them.”

The Secured by Design (SBD) accreditation further demonstrates Genius’s commitment to security. Doug Skins from Secured by Design said: “We’re delighted to welcome Genius PVC Trade Frames as a Secured by Design member company. SBD accreditation is increasingly sought after in both public and private sector contracts. Genius’s customers can now leverage this prestigious certification to win more business and stand out in competitive tenders.”

This latest achievement aligns with Genius’s ongoing expansion and investment in state-of-the-art machinery, further solidifying their position as a leading innovator in the fenestration industry. With more product launches and innovations planned for 2025, Genius continues to push progress in the PVC-U window and door market.
