LEADING UK UPVC WINDOW SUPPLIERS

Click here for an easy-to-use listing of leading UK suppliers of UPVC windows, provided by Archbone.

UPVC plastic windows have for twenty years been widely used in the UK both as replacement windows and for new build. UPVC windows are constructed from extruded polyester sections, with complex end cuts. The sections are joined into frames and window by screwing or bolting, or by welding. Welding has the advantage of greater strength; screwing or bolting has the advantage that damaged parts of a window or window frame can be replaced on site.

UPVC windows are normally finished in white. They can have wood effect finish, in either light or dark brown. The disadvantage of wood effect finish is that the dark colour absorbs more heat in summer, allowing the UPVC windows to heat up. This can lead to deterioration and distortion.
