Sheerline expands trophy collection with double NFA win

Sheerline has been voted Aluminium Systems Company of the Year for the third year in a row.

The accolade, which was presented at the National Fenestration Awards 2026, was peer voted in which 13 other aluminium systems houses were in contention.

Sheerline said it was a significant award for the company, as it reflected the impact both its’ products and people are having within the industry.

Ben Hartshorn, Sheerline’s Technical and Design Director, was also named Young Person of the Year in another category, with 15 other hopefuls in the running.

Due to the calibre of entrants, it was awarded to three individuals – with Ben winning the award alongside Hope Kendall of Geze UK and Sophie Baker of Winkhaus UK.

Previously named a Rising Star at the G Awards, Ben is said to be making a significant and positive contribution at Sheerline.

Most recently, he has led the development of the new inline aluminium patio, SheerGlide.

When asked about his award win, Ben commented: “It’s great to have been nominated and recognised by my industry peers. It proves that what we’re doing is working and that there is room for innovation with aluminium.”

Martin Hepburn, Area Sales Director, attended the ceremony on behalf of Sheerline and commented: “The NFAs 2026 were a huge success – well done to all involved and congratulations to the winners.”

“Receiving the award for Aluminium Systems Company of the Year (again!) was a fantastic result as well as Ben being recognised for his hard work.

“It’s been a big year for Sheerline and to be perfectly honest, we’re not slowing down – watch this space!” he added.
