Following the release of the Glass and Glazing Federation’s (GGF) two free Safe Guides for Homeowners and Companies respectively, and having published over 55 related articles, the GGF is now aiming to provide even more support to continue helping the industry get through the COVID-19 crisis.
John Agnew, GGF Managing Director, said, “Our first priority will always be to help our Members, but in this current situation, it is in everyone’s interests for the GGF to also help the entire industry recover. We’ll continue to provide free guidance and information to all companies in the industry, but for Members, we will be putting together some additional activities to provide even more support. It is important the industry’s supply chain starts functioning and for companies to work together.
