uPVC stands for unplasticized PVC which is a durable and low-care material frequently used for doors and windows and door frames. This material offers thermal efficiency and weatherproofing, and can come in a variety of styles and colors. This makes it a preferred choice for both homes and offices.

uPVC material is formed by heating and molding uPVC which is then cut into required shapes and assembled into doors and window frames. These frames are then reinforced with metal or other metals to make them sturdier and to help avoid warping. In climates that have significant temperature changes this is very vital. There are many advantages to uPVC window frames as the material is resistant to decay and damage and will resist most environmental wear. It is a long-lasting option for your property. Due to its natural properties - it is a low-care material and only needs occasional cleaning with water and soap. It provides good insulation and helps to limit heat loss in your house which helps to reduce energy bills. uPVC is able to be made in different styles and colours so is a flexible option which is also cost-effective compared to aluminium.
