uPVC material stands for unplasticized PVC which is a long-lasting and low-care material frequently used for window and door frames and windows. This material offers thermal efficiency and weather protection, and can come in a assortment of finishes and colours. This makes it a go-to choice for residential and commercial properties.

uPVC is formed by heating and shaping uPVC which is then cut into shapes and assembled into door and window frames. These frames are then reinforced 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 advantages to uPVC windows and doors as the material is resistant to rot and wear and will resist most environmental wear. It is a long-term option for your residence. Due to its natural properties - it is a low-maintenance material and only needs regular cleaning with mild soap and water. It provides good heat retention and helps to minimize heat loss in your house which helps to lower energy costs. uPVC is able to be made in different styles and colours so is a versatile option which is also budget-friendly compared to wood.
