Windows Doors

UV Resistance

 

Ultra violet radiation can harm window frames, causing cracks or discoloration in painted windows. Our uPVC double glazed windows and doors, made with Polyurethane, resist fading and cracking when exposed to sunlight. These energy efficient windows require no polishing or painting for UV protection.

Un-reinforced uPVC window profiles often lack rigidity and have a high coefficient of expansion, leading to distortion. To prevent this, we reinforce all our double glazed windows and doors with aluminium or steel, based on customer preferences. This internal metal extrusion ensures the frames remain stiff and do not warp or twist under heat or pressure. Many customers prefer aluminium for its lighter weight and rust resistance.

We use high-quality extrusions that undergo rigorous UV radiation testing in extreme desert and mountain conditions, ensuring they are formulated for Australian climates. Manufactured in Sydney, our profiles are designed to withstand the sun's potential damage.

Some competitors, misunderstanding extrusion composition and performance, may claim that uPVC window frames will melt like Polyethylene shopping bags. We have never received complaints about melting and offer test samples for your verification.

We believe our customers are intelligent and capable of distinguishing between anecdotal and factual information. Our consultants maintain the highest professional standards, ensuring you receive the most appropriate products for your needs.
