Below is a list of trade bodies, associations and alliances:


1. FENSA
2. CERTASS
3. DGCOS
4. BPF
5. GGF
6. PWFED - plastics window federation
7. DHF - door and hardware federation
8. BWF
9. CAB
10. Trust Mark
11. RICS


I'm sure that there are others I may have missed out, but 11, that are directly or indirectly associated with the glazing industry is about 8 too many if you ask me. 


Above is the reason why every time a new trade organisation is established, the industry groans at the sight of a new one. There are way too many, which only serves to weaken the credibility of all of them.
