History

Established in 1983, by entrepreneur John Lancaster MBE, Ultraframe was the first conservatory company to develop a conservatory roofing system with no onsite manufacture.[3] In 1996 Ultraframe was the first roofing system to obtain the British Board of Agrément approval for their products and in 1998 Ultraframe was floated on the London Stock Exchange.[4]

Livinroof won Best New Product in 2014.[10] In 2016 Ultraframe launched Ultraroof a tiled solid roof at Fitshow, this is the lightest tiled roof on the market weighing only 38 kg/m2.[11]
