All that makes uPVC windows sound pretty brilliant doesn’t it? Well there are also some unique benefits to aluminium windows that are worth knowing about:
Aluminium tends to be stronger than uPVC. That means that aluminium windows can have a slimmer appearance, and a larger glass surface area due to the strength of the frames. For this reason they’re very popular with commercial and public buildings like schools, offices and government buildings. This can be a good benefit for a residential home too, if you’re looking for a particularly large design.
Powder-coated aluminium is extremely durable, which means whatever finish you choose will last for a very long time. Aluminium windows can last up to 20 years.
Aluminium windows are also environmentally friendly. Aluminium is indefinitely recyclable – when you recycle it, it creates very high quality new aluminium and the process only uses 5% of the energy needed to create the initial metal.
Aluminium has greater design flexibility than uPVC – the range of colours available (including dual colours) is amazing.
Aluminium windows are designed to withstand some pretty extreme conditions, and survive tests in severe exposure categories.
