However, for Kenrick & Sons, joining the Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF) was a natural step. 

Not only was this decision made to support its own growth, but it supported Kenrick & Sons’ role to actively shape the future of the industry.

As the recognised voice of the glass and glazing sector, the GGF brings together companies from across the supply chain to represent collective interests at the highest level.

For Kenrick & Sons, this influence was a key factor.

“The GGF ensures our industry’s voice is heard at the highest levels,” explains Martin Smith, General Manager at Kenrick. “Its technical knowledge and advocacy work are instrumental in helping government make informed decisions that impact our sector. Being part of that conversation is incredibly important to us.”

In an increasingly regulated environment, having a central body that not only understands legislation, but actively engages with policymakers, is becoming more important than ever.

Membership provides businesses with a direct connection to that process – ensuring that they are not only informed but actively represented.

Beyond advocacy, the value of the GGF membership lies in its ability to bring the industry together.

Kenrick has praised the GGF’s extensive programme of events and specialist technical groups, including the annual GGF Members’ Day.

“These forums provide valuable opportunities to share expertise,” continued Martin. “It’s key to collaborate with industry colleagues and help customers maximise the value of their hardware choices.”

The Federation’s focus on long-term sustainability also plays a critical role.

With the skills gap continuing to challenge the sector, initiatives such as the Skilled Pathways Scheme demonstrate a clear commitment to supporting the next generation of talent.

For members, this provides reassurance that the industry is not only addressing today’s challenges but actively preparing for the future.

For Kenrick & Sons, joining the GGF is about being part of something bigger – contributing to an industry-wide effort to raise standards, strengthen collaboration, and ensure the sector continues to evolve with the times.

As the industry navigates increasing regulatory, environmental, and commercial pressures, that collective approach is an essential driving factor.
