uPVC stands for unplasticized polyvinyl chloride which is a durable and easy-to-maintain material commonly used for doors and windows and doors. This material offers thermal efficiency and weather resistance, and can come in a variety of designs and colours. This makes it a preferred choice for residential and commercial properties.

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 reinforced with metal or other metals to make them sturdier and to help minimize warping. In climates that have prominent temperature changes this is very essential.
