New Technical Chairman for NARM

THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION of Rooflight Manufacturers has appointed a new Technical Chairman following a vote at the body’s Annual General Meeting.

Stuart Middle is currently Senior Engineer at Brett Martin Daylight Systems.

Stuart is to take on the role at NARM, following the decision of Bill Hawker, also of Brett Martin Daylight Systems, to stand down after over a decade in the position.

NARM’s Technical Committee meets on a regular basis and works on establishing the effects of rooflighting on building performance and in the development of rooflight standards which protect the UK industry from potentially poorly performing products.

New appointment welcomed

Stuart said, “I’m excited to be taking on this challenge and look forward to building on the achievements of the Committee.

It’s a wide-ranging job, as NARM’s membership includes suppliers of all different rooflighting products and technologies – and with so much change currently facing the construction industry, I’m sure we’ll be kept busy.”

NARM Chairman Jim Lowther said: “We’re delighted to welcome Stuart to his new role. His expertise and experience is highly valued.

“I also take this opportunity to thank Bill Hawker for his outstanding contribution to NARM over many years.
