There's a reason architects and developers increasingly specify aluminium over uPVC for contemporary builds and high-end renovations and it's not just aesthetics.

​

Aluminium is inherently strong, which means the frames can be made significantly slimmer than uPVC while still carrying the same or larger glass panes. The result is more glass, less frame, and the kind of clean sightlines that simply aren't achievable with other materials. If you've ever walked into a room with floor to ceiling glazing and thought "that's exactly what I want" you were almost certainly looking at aluminium.

 

 

The practical advantages worth knowing about:

​

• Larger apertures; aluminium's strength allows bigger openings than uPVC can typically achieve, making it the natural choice for bifold doors, large fixed lights, and patio sliding doors.

• Any colour, any finish; powder coated in any RAL or BS colour, meaning your windows and doors can match your building exactly rather than choosing from a limited palette

• Infinitely recyclable; unlike uPVC, aluminium can be recycled repeatedly without any loss of quality. The environmental credentials are genuine, not marketing

• Slimmer sight lines; more glass, less frame. The visual difference compared to uPVC is immediately obvious

• Low maintenance' the powder coated finish requires nothing more than an occasional clean and is guaranteed for 25 years.
