Choosing the right material for your windows

PVC, aluminum or wood?

What is the best material for your windows?

Choosing the most suitable material for the windows of your home is a difficult choice, due to the diversity of pros and cons posed by any of the options available on the market: PVC, aluminum and wood, mainly.

But what is the best window material?

Aluminum windows:
This window material is the most economical of those currently available, but its coldness, for example, favors condensation and the transmission of low temperatures if it does not have a thermal break (RPT). Less demanding than wood in terms of maintenance, aluminum can deteriorate rapidly if minimal care is not taken.

Wooden windows:
The aesthetic qualities of wood are highly appreciated among consumers. A major disadvantage of the most fragile woods to moisture, sun exposure and other adverse conditions will require pre-treatment to ensure optimum durability and termite repellency.

For similar reasons, their cleaning and maintenance should also not be underestimated, being heavier and more laborious than in PVC windows.

Windows with PVC profiles: versatile and sophisticated
Polyvinyl chloride, commonly known as PVC, is one of the most dynamic and resistant plastic derivatives, with countless applications in sectors such as construction, health, electronics and automotive. Since its appearance in 1935, PVC windows have undergone remarkable evolutions to reach levels of insulation and conductivity in harmony with the energy efficiency sought today.
