In
Australia, with our earthy heritage it may feel different
to frame our windows in uPVC, an entirely synthetic material.
But uPVC looks just like carefully painted timber, although
it performs better in many important ways.
uPVC
is so environmentally neutral that it is used for many
bio-sensitive applications, from pharmaceutical containers
to waterpipes. It is totally recyclable.
The
u in uPVC stands for unplasticised, a rigid form of
PVC that lasts so long we give it a lifetime warranty.

double glazing helps reduce home energy consumption by 50 to 80%.
Greenhouse gas emissions drop along with your power bills.
An
American study showed how, right from the earliest stages
of manufacture, uPVC windows have less impact on the environment.
