Today, different materials are used in the construction of doors and windows, each of which has its own characteristics. Of all the materials, aluminum and UPVC are the most widely used materials in the manufacture of door and window profiles. These materials have advantages and disadvantages, which are discussed below and a comparison is made between them. Stay tuned for more.
First, let's look at UPVC windows:
UPVC
Abbreviation for Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride. In fact, if no lubricant is added to PVC, which is a type of compressed and hard plastic, UPVC will be created.
Features of UPVC windows:
The installation speed of these windows is high and easy.
The cost of these windows is lower than aluminum windows.
Due to the polymeric nature of these windows, these windows are inherently insulated against heat transfer through conduction.
The initial time and cost for setting up the UPVC window assembly line is much lower than the aluminum line.
Due to the lack of variety of sections in UPVC windows, raw material supply and short procurement time are short.
Features of aluminum windows:
Variety in different designs and colors such as anodized paints, electrostatic and decorative powder and the ability to perform a variety of surface paint operations such as polishing, brushing
Making a window with large dimensions up to the weight of each hinge 400 kg
High resistance to fire and fire, heat, cold and sun
Eco-friendliness and unlimited recyclability and preservation of value at the time of sale as waste
Very high resistance to corrosion
