Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride or UPVC is one of the most widely used materials in the construction of architectural fittings like doors and windows. It is a low-maintenance, hard plastic material that serves as a cost-effective and durable alternative to traditional timber and aluminum fittings. They are quite simple to use and offer an aesthetic appeal to your homes.
UPVC ensures resistance to moisture, pollution, corrosion, and offers a longer lifespan to the product. The material prevents unwanted wear and tear caused by bad weather and long term usage. The U-factor of UPVC windows is way less than that of aluminum. The U-factor or U-value refers to the measurement of thermal transmittance. In simple words, it indicates the rate at which the heat gets transferred through the window. A lower U-value means that the internal temperature of the home is not lost as the UPVC windows provide greater insulation.
Sliding doors and windows highlight the modern style of living. Because of excellent quality and security as well as an increased visual appeal, interior designers are widely shifting to sliding windows teamed with UPVC solutions. The effortless gliders ensure a seamless experience to the users.
