COMPANY OF OPEN VIEWS
Wood is a living material that breathes and grows with us. It stops the winter chills and the summer heat. Contrary to human beings, wood is always an architecturally interesting element. The forests of Europe have been a natural treasure for centuries. This is where people have learned to live in harmony with nature and this is where our renowned masters of carpentry come from. Living so close to nature has taught us to cherish these traditional ways.
WE PROMISE PERFECTION Our windows are manufactured to perfection using cutting-edge technology. Finding similar top quality windows on the market is not easy.
MAGNIFICENT PRODUCTS Do not be misled by the simplicity of our product. Each window is made of approximately 70 components. The quality depends on the commitment and experience of all the employees involved in the creation of the windows. Their commitment is seen everywhere - they are the fine details in making your window one of a kind.
ALL NATURAL WINDOWS Wood is a durable material and is a great choice for making windows. It breathes, saves energy, gives rooms a magnificent appearance and lasts longer. Our wood coatings are water based enabling your home to breathe and to become a comfortable living space.
CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY No matter which window model, each and every window model will undergo a careful process involving centuries of experience and cutting-edge technology.
CREATING YOUR WINDOW NO HIDDEN DEFECTS IN YOUR WINDOW Avoiding mistakes has led us to a wonderful idea: as part of our ground breaking production process, every window component is first automatically coated/sprayed several times. That is why the finished product has no hidden or unprotected parts, unlike windows coated at the very end of the manufacturing process. In just two steps we take care of the protection of the wood and the perfect appearance. ECO-FRIENDLY PRODUCTION Our production facilities are heated with biofuel and water based coatings that are used for wood protection. We minimize waste by making the coatings circle. Used water is recycled - thus minimizing the environmental impact. Cutting-edge eco-friendly technology now reduces the use of energy in buildings all over the world.
Wood is a noble natural material with durability, insulation qualities and a nice appearance.
Only a well-programmed machine can process wood faultlessly and accurately.
A robotized vanishing facility evenly sprays the varnish.
Varnished window elements are dried in a special chamber under optimal conditions.
Each and every window frame element is fully varnished before glueing.

THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF WINDOWS
ISOTHERM
A special feature of TILTCO windows is a built-in TGI spacer providing better insulation than aluminum. Cutting-edge technology helps us to check points where mould and condensation are most likely to occur.
CONSULTING Thermographic consulting gives you an insight into the insulation qualities of buildings ( whole buildings or just parts of them). Special high-tech thermographic equipment is used for thermography.

THE INSTALLATION SYSTEM AND SEALING OPTIONS BETWEEN THE WINDOW AND THE WALL
SAFETY If safety is important to you, you can improve it even further by installing safety fittings (Wk1, Wk2), special glass or heavy duty handles (secustic).
ENERGY EFFICIENCY Special heavy-duty fittings ensures ventilation/airing through a miniscule apertire and prevents force entries from outside.
AESTHETICS When a window is closed concealed fittings is not visible.
ADVANTAGES OF WINDOW INSTALLATION WITH SUBFRAMES 1. because the windows are built into the building after the construction nished there is no damage and the windows are clean work has be 2. before the installation of windows the building has to be dry so that humidity does not enter wood and damage the surface coating 3. subframes ensure extra insulation of window jambs on the outer side which increases the building’s insulation qualities 4. because the subframes’ delivery times are short masonry work can be carried out without delays 5. the installation does not require any additional ng strips on the inner side 6. subframe installation is especially recommended when installing larch windows because this sensitive type of wood does not darken equally when lime is used
CARE & MAINTENANCE You can extend the window’s lifespan and preserve its appearance on the inner side by using the provided maintenance kit that includes cleaning liquid, special balm/conditioner and two clothes.
WINDOW SILLS RAL-COMPATIBLE INSTALLATION
A wide selection of inner (wood, marble, granite) and outer (aluminum, marble, granite) windows sills can enhance window’s appearance and/or functionality.
