Housing Wed, Mar 23, 2016 10:27 AM

Following its first-ever united debut at last year’s CIH, Valor and Robinson Willey – the two leading names in fires and the biggest brands within social housing – are back with a vengeance.

As well as debuting new and existing products from their impressive portfolio, an exciting line-up of competition opportunities awaits all visitors.

‘Affordable heating solutions’ is the theme for Valor and Robinson Willey’s combined show of strength, and both brands will be parading an extensive new line-up of electric fires and suites that have been designed with both energy efficiency and cost-savings in mind.

Product Marketing Manager at Valor and Robinson Willey, Tracey Falshaw, explains: “With energy efficiency being at the heart of all social housing policies, we are excited to unveil a series of products that deliver tangible energy and cost-savings.”

Tracey adds: “Also, whilst we are firmly committed to electric heating, we are keen to demonstrate that gas is still the most economical form of heating and will be displaying a range of models as testimony.”

Taking centre stage will be a new range of ‘Ecolite’ electric fires from Valor. Featuring two models, Balmoral and Savena, these fires bear all the hallmarks of the Valor brand and meet the needs of social housing. As well as boasting energy efficiency LED’s, both models feature a new top side heat control and a quick fit kettle connection. Unlike other electric counterparts, they also come complete with BEAB and CE approval.

A new line-up of electric suites from RW that is also available as a one-box solution perfectly demonstrates the brand’s expertise at providing energy efficient heating solutions tailored to meet social housing needs, whilst new electric suites from Valor will also be unveiled.

A range of contemporary wall-hung electric fires from both brands will also be on display. Featuring three models, these fires are ideal for those homes where space is at a premium, and complete with remote control for added flexibility and LED lights, they provide a modern-day heating solution.

Both Valor and Robinson Willey are now part of the GDC Group, the UK heating division and subsidiary of the privately-owned Glen Dimplex Group. The GDC Group supplies an impressive portfolio of gas and electric fires across both retail and trade sectors.
