New FENSA Member ID Card launched for window and door installers

FENSA, government authorised self-certification scheme for windows and doors launches new FENSA Member ID card.

A new scheme has been launched by FENSA, which following discussions between FENSA members and consumer groups, will see the introduction of a more credible ID card, which allows installers of windows and doors to be able to demonstrate their reliability giving customers assurance.

The design of the new FENSA card helps members promote their businesses across the country, with the FENSA and business logo on the card. It also includes enhanced security features, such as the hologram, to prevent rogue traders developing counterfeit cards.

In order to acquire a card, FENSA installers /surveyors need to achieve their Minimum Technical Competencies (MTC) via Helix Training.

Jon Vanstone, Director of FENSA, said: “It is a really exciting time for FENSA and the new card marks the first of a number of initiatives and changes in 2017 that will deliver more value to members and help them have better engagement with their customers.

“Members will be carrying the new FENSA Card which will enable customers to cross reference the details on the card on FENSA’s online database. Checking who is on your doorstep is vital particularly when dealing with vulnerable people.”

Commenting, Neil Coyle, Member of Parliament for Bermondsey and Old Southwark, said: “I’m delighted to see the launch of the new FENSA Card today, an initiative that will help installers build trust with their customers.

“FENSA membership is synonymous with high quality work and the FENSA Card will soon be a visual representation of this. It is great to hear more about FENSA’s bold plans to support installers in the year ahead. FENSA plays an important role in the fenestration industry and its’ work will continue to protect the reputation of responsible installers.”
