uPVC (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride) stands for unplasticized vinyl chloride which is a durable and easy-care material widely used for window and door frames and windows. This material offers insulating properties and weatherproofing, and can come in a wide range of shapes and shades. This makes it a favored choice for houses and workplaces.

Unplasticized polyvinyl chloride is formed by heating and shaping uPVC which is then cut into shapes and assembled into doors and window frames. These frames are then strengthened with steel or other metals to enhance their durability and to help avoid warping. In climates that have wide temperature changes this is very important. There are many positives to uPVC frames and doors as the material is non-corrosive and wear and will hold up against most environmental wear. It is a long-term option for your house. Due to its composition - it is a low-maintenance material and only needs regular cleaning with simple soap and water. It provides good insulation and helps to reduce heat loss in your house which helps to keep energy bills down. uPVC is able to be made in multiple colours and styles so is a adaptable option which is also reasonably priced compared to wood.
