uPVC stands for unplasticized PVC which is a long-lasting and low-care material widely used for window and door installations and door frames. This material offers insulating properties and weather protection, and can come in a variety of shapes and finishes. This makes it a go-to choice for houses and workplaces.

uPVC is formed by heating and processing uPVC which is then cut into required shapes and assembled into window and door structures. These frames are then strengthened with steel or other metals to boost their strength and to help reduce the risk of warping. In climates that have wide temperature changes this is very important. There are many benefits to uPVC frames and doors as the material is resistant to rot and damage and will hold up against most weather-related damage. It is a durable option for your house. Due to its chemical composition - it is a low-care material and only needs periodic cleaning with mild soap and water. It provides good heat retention and helps to minimize heat loss in your house which helps to save on energy costs. uPVC is able to be made in various styles and colours so is a adaptable option which is also cost-effective compared to timber.
