Insight Index growth

Insight Index trade directory use has grown rapidly across the glazing and fenestration sectors. Since launch, the platform has passed 60,000 verified visits and continues to drive supplier visibility and lead generation for UK-based manufacturers, fabricators, and component providers.

What is the Insight Index?

The Insight Index is a free-to-use online trade directory created by Insight Data. It provides verified listings of suppliers, manufacturers, and service providers in the glazing and building products industries.

  • Search filters to locate relevant suppliers quickly
  • Monthly traffic stats are available to listed companies
  • Suppliers can upload their videos, social media links, and technical documents

Benefits for Suppliers and Installers

The Index offers a direct channel between verified trade suppliers and installers actively searching for products. Users include:

  • Fabricators

Each profile page is fully editable, meaning suppliers can keep content up to date and track engagement levels in real-time.
