uPVC (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride) stands for unplasticized polyvinyl chloride which is a long-lasting and low-maintenance material widely used for window and door installations and door frames. This material offers excellent energy efficiency and weatherproofing, and can come in a variety of shapes and colours. This makes it a go-to choice for residential and commercial properties.

Unplasticized polyvinyl chloride is formed by melting and shaping uPVC which is then cut into shapes and assembled into window and door structures. These frames are then supported with metal or other metals to enhance their durability and to help reduce the risk of warping. In climates that have significant temperature changes this is very vital. There are many positives to uPVC frames and doors as the material is resistant to corrosion and rot and will hold up against most weather damage. It is a durable option for your residence. Due to its chemical makeup - it is a low-maintenance material and only needs occasional maintenance with mild soap and water. It provides good insulating properties and helps to prevent heat loss in your residence which helps to lower energy costs. uPVC is able to be made in multiple colours and styles so is a flexible option which is also reasonably priced compared to aluminium.
