FEATURES Our PVC-profile windows and doors provide exclusive advantages in terms of comfort, peace of mind and satisfaction. Let’s take a closer look at what advantages they offer.
1
MAINTENANCE-FREE FOR LIFE The window profiles are made from an exclusive, 100% virgin uPVC powder compound that is entirely lead-free. This special compound gives the system better resistance to impact and discoloration. The window profiles are maintenance-free and will not crack, blister or warp.
2
YOUR CHOICE OF GLAZING Depending on the model, glazing of different types and thicknesses can be applied (3/8” to 7/8”). Airtightness is ensured by triple or quadruple weather stripping (depending on window model). The glazing bead is designed to withstand extreme conditions, including winds up to 375 km/h (235 mph). Located inside, the glazing bead provides greater security and facilitates any glazing replacement.
