Nationwide Network of
Approved Specialist
Contractors
Our fabricators and installers are fully trained prior
to approval, and regularly undergo top-up courses
to ensure that their skill levels have been
maintained as well as receiving instruction on new
products, product modifications or regulation
changes. All training will be provided by CWCT
approved Kawneer staff.
Kawneer Installation
Certificate (KIC)
Quality is the bedrock of our business and
through KIC training we create an environment
of best practice in standardised installation.
This intensive two day training course, available
to Main Contractors and Installers, is designed to
provide a structured, strategic approach to the
installation of Kawneer products and is aimed at
individuals who are involved with the installation
process, i.e. Project Managers, Contract
Managers/Supervisors, Installation Team Foremen
and Installers.
The course is rigorously assessed to ensure quality
and those that pass are awarded a photographic
ID card which is then valid for 3 years.
