Low maintenance - uPVC window frames do not require painting or sealing, which greatly reduces maintenance on their life time. They are easily cleaned with water and detergents.
Hard and durable - uPVC is a very durable material used for water and sewer pipes for at least 100 years. uPVC windows are so durable that most of them have been installed in the last 25 years. Good quality uPVC windows and doors are tested for ultraviolet resistance so that they cannot be faded in the harsh Indian sun.
Rot-resistant - uPVC does not rot and is resistant to corrosion.
Thermal comfort - Unlike metals, uPVC is non-conductive, which means that its use in the window frame does not transfer heat and therefore contributes to a more consistent internal temperature in the building. The combination of UPVC frame and double glazing makes for highly energy efficient windows. Open tilt and turn-uPVC window allow the system to open in two directions to increase the ability to take advantage of natural, cross ventilation.
Acoustic insulation - Double-glazed UPVC windows and doors are able to reduce noise up to 70%.
Resistant to salt erosion - uPVC is resistant to rust due to salt-laden air, which makes them ideal for coastal properties.
High security - uPVC windows include multi-locking systems that provide high level of protection for homes or businesses. Most uPVC window locking system is locked on many points around the sash and frame.
Reusable - uPVC can often be recycled 10 times. Where they are commonly used for the last 30 years, such as in Europe, uPVC can be windows and doors, and are recycled at the end of life. Although very short end of life uPVC windows is currently available for recycling in India, Indian industry programs are committed to keeping uPVC out of landfill, putting it back in new products. Off-cuts from UPVC window fabrication are already being collected for recycling in some states.
