uPVC (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride) stands for unplasticized polyvinyl which is a long-lasting and low-maintenance material commonly used for window and door frames and door frames. This material offers insulating properties and weather protection, and can come in a variety of styles and shades. This makes it a popular choice for houses and workplaces.

uPVC is formed by heating and shaping uPVC which is then molded and cut and assembled into window and door structures. These frames are then reinforced with steel or other metals to enhance their durability and to help prevent any warping. In climates that have extreme temperature changes this is very important. There are many benefits to uPVC windows and doors as the material is non-corrosive and wear and will resist most environmental wear. It is a long-term option for your house. Due to its chemical makeup - it is a easy-to-maintain material and only needs regular cleaning with mild soap and water. It provides good thermal insulation and helps to reduce heat loss in your house 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 cost-effective compared to timber.
