uPVC stands for unplasticized polyvinyl which is a long-lasting and easy-to-maintain material popular for doors and windows and door frames. This material offers excellent energy efficiency and weatherproofing, and can come in a wide range of designs and finishes. This makes it a favored choice for residential and commercial properties.

uPVC is formed by heating and processing uPVC which is then cut into shapes and assembled into doors and window frames. These frames are then supported with metal or other metals to boost their strength and to help minimize warping. In climates that have significant temperature changes this is very necessary. There are many benefits to uPVC windows and doors as the material is resistant to decay and damage and will hold up against most environmental wear. It is a long-term option for your house. Due to its chemical composition - it is a easy-care material and only needs occasional cleaning with simple soap and water. It provides good insulating properties and helps to limit heat loss in your residence which helps to save on energy costs. uPVC is able to be made in multiple colours and styles so is a adaptable option which is also budget-friendly compared to wood.
