UPVC is the abbreviated name for unplasticised polyvinyl chloride. It starts as a plastic powder, which is heated to create a liquid to inject into a mould. The mould is a long strip, ideal for manufacturing UPVC windows. Once cooled, the UPVC is cut to form the base of the frame for a double or triple-glazed window. The ‘profile’ is simply the type of window frame is created for. Different types of windows have different profiles designed to provide structural support and solutions such as superior energy efficiency.
uPVC is also highly energy-efficient, providing excellent thermal insulation, which helps maintain comfortable indoor temperatures and reduce energy consumption. Additionally, it offers superior soundproofing qualities, making it suitable for urban environments where noise pollution is a concern. The material is resistant to UV rays, meaning it won’t fade or discolor over time, ensuring long-lasting performance.
One of the key advantages of uPVC is its low maintenance requirements. Unlike wooden frames, which require regular painting and sealing, uPVC profiles only need periodic cleaning to maintain their appearance and functionality. This makes uPVC an attractive and cost-effective alternative to traditional materials.
