uPVC stands for unplasticized polyvinyl chloride which is a durable and low-care material commonly used for window frames and doors. This material offers thermal efficiency and weatherproofing, and can come in a wide range of styles and colours. This makes it a preferred choice for homes and offices.

Unplasticized polyvinyl chloride is formed by heating and shaping uPVC which is then cut into shapes and assembled into door and window frames. 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 significant temperature changes this is very essential. There are many positives to uPVC frames and doors as the material is non-corrosive and corrosion and will withstand most weather conditions. It is a durable option for your home. Due to its chemical makeup - it is a easy-to-maintain material and only needs occasional cleaning with water and soap. It provides good insulating properties and helps to limit heat loss in your home which helps to save on energy costs. uPVC is able to be made in multiple colours and styles so is a versatile option which is also reasonably priced compared to timber.
