With the unveiling of ground- breaking products and systems, MFT delivered on its promise to “See it First at FIT”, leaving visitors impressed, inspired, and eager to learn more. The FIT Show 2025 was the perfect stage for Made for Trade to showcase its latest product innovations. Over the course of three packed days, the MFT stand became a magnet for installers, fabricators, specifiers, and industry professionals alike. With a continuous flow of visitors, the event was a resounding success in fostering new relationships while strengthening existing partnerships. Introducing the SIPS Upstand, Designed to Complement FLATLite In line with MFT’s reputation for practical innovation, FIT Show 2025 also marked the launch of the new SIPS Upstand, a carefully developed solution designed to perfectly complement the Korniche FLAT Lite bonded rooflight. Recognising the growing demand for British-designed and manufactured products, offering peace of mind to both the trade and homeowner, this simplified, thermally efficient flat rooflight ticks all the boxes. The SIPS Upstand is engineered to streamline the installation process while enhancing performance. This factory-assembled upstand ensures a precise fit and consistent quality, eliminating on-site guesswork and reducing installation times even further. When paired with the FLAT Lite bonded glass rooflight, the all-new roof lantern or Flat Glass, installers benefit from a seamless, aesthetically superior solution that delivers exceptional thermal efficiency. This addition to the Korniche range further cements Made for Trade’s commitment to offering complete, end-to-end solutions that save time, reduce costs, and deliver outstanding results.

Staying true to its ethos of delivering installer- friendly solutions, the latest evolution of the Korniche Roof Lantern has once again redefined expectations. Through a combination of clever engineering and meticulous design, the new Korniche Roof Lantern boasts an even quicker installation time, enhanced thermal performance with industry-leading U-values, which, when released, will mark impressively competitive price points. Visitors watched first- hand demonstrations that showcased how MFT has distilled years of expertise and customer feedback into an offering that genuinely sets a new benchmark in the market. With a slimline aesthetic and structural refinement, the updated Korniche Roof Lantern meets the modern demand for minimal sightlines without compromising strength or ease of fitting. The result is a product that is not only installer-friendly but also commercially astute, offering real value for both trade professionals and homeowners. “Our presence at FIT Show 2025 was all about listening to our customers, responding with meaningful innovation, and showing the industry exactly how we make trade better,” said Ian Bousfield, Marketing Manager. “With every product developed, MFT focus on delivering genuine installer benefits – faster, easier, better value solutions that don’t compromise on quality.
