PVC and aluminium windows
PANORAMA FERESTRE · SINCE 2017uPVC and aluminium windows
We help you compare frame materials, glazing and opening types for your home, noise exposure, sunlight and budget.
Aluminium
Slim sightlines, rigidity and freedom for large openings.
Glazing
Packages configured for thermal, solar, acoustic and safety needs.
PVC, aluminium or a mixed specification?
For standard openings, PVC is often the efficient choice. For large glazed areas and slimmer sightlines, aluminium may justify the investment. One home does not have to force every opening into one material.
Find a suitable option| Criterion | PVC | Aluminium |
|---|---|---|
| Standard openings | Very suitable | Possible when design requires |
| Very large openings | Within system limits | Rigidity advantage |
| Sightline | More visible frame | Can be slimmer |
| Finishes | White, foils and colours | RAL, textures, dual colour |
| Investment | Usually more controlled | Usually higher |

FAQ
Short answers to important questions.
PVC or aluminium?+
PVC is often the efficient choice for homes; aluminium offers rigidity and slimmer sightlines for large openings. The final recommendation depends on the project.
Is triple glazing always best?+
Not independently of the rest of the specification. We select glazing based on orientation, size, acoustic needs and whole-window performance.
