Lincolnshire-based timber windows and doors manufacturer, George Barnsdale, is the latest manufacturer to join NBS and list its products on NBS Source, the highly successful manufacturer product platform.  

George Barnsdale works closely with architects and specifiers at all stages to support in making informed product decisions on their projects. With specifiers being a key audience and one that increasingly requires information digitally, it decided to add NBS Source to its methods of engaging with the specifier audience. Specifiers will have access to 10 George Barnsdale products, including timber sliding sash windows, casement windows, bi-fold doors and entrance doors. 

With first-class product credentials to its name, including BlueSky certification for General Performance Windows and Enhanced Security Windows and Doors, Secured by Design, and FSC® chain of custody, George Barnsdale wanted to find a way of raising its business profile amongst built environment professionals. As a result, they chose NBS Source to target specifiers looking for the best-in-class product and specification data when working on construction projects.  

NBS Source is a free-to-use construction platform for architects, designers, specifiers and engineers to help them find the information they need to make informed product decisions on project specifications. With NBS Source, the specifier can easily compare products against one another and add them directly to their specification.  

Furthermore, NBS Source has given George Barnsdale the ability to build and maintain relationships with specifiers throughout the whole construction journey, resulting in a much smoother and more collaborative process. A proposition that can help save valuable time and resources for time-strapped specifiers and increase the likelihood of a product being selected.  

Specifying Excellence

Steve Dixon, Technical Sales Director at George Barnsdale adds, “We’re committed to putting our customers first, and we’ve recognised the challenges specifiers face in making informed choices. By being on Source, we simplify the process—giving them quick access to comprehensive product details and easy comparisons with other options. Plus, having our products listed in NBS Chorus is an added bonus. It ensures we’re deeply embedded in the specification process, right where crucial decisions happen, providing yet another valuable path to market.” 

Commenting on George Barnsdale becoming an NBS Source manufacturer partner, Lee Jones, Head of Manufacturer Solutions at NBS says, “Specifiers want to make better and more informed decisions, and by having George Barnsdale listed on Source, this will make their lives easier. by giving specifiers access to the data they need, they can make accurate, direct comparisons, allowing them to be more decisive when choosing products and reducing the risk of mistakes.” 

He adds, “The full power of digital can only be unlocked through collaboration, and manufacturers such as George Barnsdale can now be involved. This is an important step in having a more structured approach to record-keeping and information management.”
