Sustainable and energy efficient
Many people are surprised by just how sustainable aluminium is as a building material. Unlike some recycled materials, recycled aluminium loses none of the properties that make aluminium such a useful material for construction. In addition to this, it takes just a fraction of the energy to produce recycled aluminium compared to primary aluminium.
Modern aluminium windows are also remarkably energy efficient, making them a great choice if you’re concerned about reducing your energy consumption. By using less energy, you’ll lower your energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint at the same time, making this a great, sustainable choice.

Some benefits of aluminium windows
Aluminium windows are one of the more expensive options, but we firmly believe that they’re worth the money! Available in any RAL colour, aluminium windows are aesthetically pleasing, and can be manufactured with a timber sub frame, which gives a touch of classic styling to a modern design. They also offer slim profiles for uninterrupted sight lines.
Aluminium windows are almost maintenance-free, and they meet the highest standards when it comes to resisting water infiltration. They’re an excellent choice when you want the very best windows on the market. To discuss the benefits of aluminium windows, get in touch today.
What is thermal breaking?
Thermal breaking is a clever construction trick that enables us to make aluminium windows that are very thermally efficient. Aluminium itself is a very efficient conductor of heat, which doesn’t lead to good thermal insulation, but modern materials technology and construction methods have the answer! Thermal breaking involves using a layer of another material within the frame, breaking the aluminium to aluminium contact between inside and outside. This intervening layer acts as an insulator, and enables your new aluminium windows to keep the heat in.
