PVC or Poly vinyl Chloride is form of plastic derived from common salt (57%) and oil (43%).
UPVC is used for many purposes including;
Additives are used in specific proportions with PVC to derive certain properties. This is known as compounding or blending.
The blends developed by us are specifically made to suit tropical climates like India and have been proven in use for over 10 years.
UPVC window systems are resistant to scratches during normal domestic use. If scratches do appear, they can be polished out.
Unlike MOST other plastics UPVC is self-extinguishing. This means when the source of the fire is taken away, and it stops burning.
Any material will give off fumes when it burns – remember UPVC is self-extinguishing.
UPVC has many benefits over the alternative materials – see below.
Wood | Steel | UPVC | |
---|---|---|---|
MAINTENANCE | Need regular Painting/ Staining | Some Refinishing Over Life Of Building | No Painting Necessary |
DURABILITY | Can Rot Or Warp | Steel Can Rust & twist | Will Not Rot Or Warp |
PERFORMANCE | Low weather Tolerance | Steel Frames Don’t Use Weather Seals | Excellent, Long- Life Weathering Performance |
PRODUCTION /ECOLOGY | Tropical Hardwoods Are Ecologically Unsound | Tropical Hardwoods Are Ecologically Unsound | Efficient User And Conserver Of Energy |
AESTHETICS | Looks Good | Can Look Cold And Out Of Proportion | Elegant looks |
ENERGY CONSERVATION | Insulation- Good | Insulation - Poor | Insulation- Excellent |
ACOUSTIC INSULATION | Acoustics - Poor | Acoustics - Poor | Acoustics - Excellent |
STRUCTURAL STRENGTH | Good | Very Good | Good with encapsulated reinforcing |
U-PVC is very durable, windows installed 40 years ago in Germany are still in good working order.. The life of this product is probably as long as the life of the building, provided the mechanical components are maintained.
Properly installed U-PVC windows give excellent noise reduction (Attenuation)
UPVC window have excellent thermal properties which reduce dramatically the amount of heat gain within the property from the outside.
We will offer a Mosquito screen system for the Horizontal Sliding Window and Doors. Casement windows can use the same Mosquito Screen as used for wood or aluminium windows.
24.YES, think of the U-PVC system as a LEGO set from which you can manufacture any style which can be made in wood or aluminium if not more.
The cost would be comparable with good quality aluminum window systems and lower than good quality wood.
Every window/contract/enquiry will be individually costed to ensure the most accurate costing and ranges from 700 Rs./Sqft to 1000 Rs.Sq.Ft depending of Sizes ,Design and glasses required
