Windows
Why is it worth choosing aluminum windows?
Windows come in a variety of different shapes, sizes, and types and let in natural light during the day while allowing for ventilation as well which helps keep your premises fresh and dry at all times. Zeroing in on a window for your home is about finding the right balance between aesthetics and function as your window helps not only define the style of your house but also highlights your superior tastes. The possibilities with windows are truly endless and restricted only by your imagination.
Thermal efficiency
Aluminium windows can easily achieve improvements in heat gain and heat loss through windows by as much as 60 per cent when combined with a thermal break, rivalling more expensive timber and uPVC equivalents. This is in part due to the introduction of polyamide technology, which has taken the energy performance of aluminium glazing to entirely new levels, providing key benefits to homeowners and business owners alike seeking to save on energy bills.
Durability
Aluminium windows have can last up to 30 years. This is because, aluminium is considerably more resistant to the outside elements compared to other frames, making them less likely to warp or rot as a result. Aluminium also has a high strength-to-weight ratio, making them harder to dent.
Affordability
One benefit of aluminium windows is that they can be significantly cheaper than other window frames. For example, wooden frames such as timber can cost a lot more than aluminium windows and require attentive maintenance. Plastic frames such as uPVC can be cheaper than aluminium. However, uPVC frames are more likely to degrade over time, and thus can work out more costly in the long run.
ASP 75 technical description
The ASP 75 system is intended for the construction of external partitions with high thermal insulation and the coefficient reaching U w = 0.6 W / (m 2 K) for a fixed window and U w = 0.8 W / (m 2 K) with an opening window.
Obtaining such a low coefficient is the result of the use of special thermal breaks, seals and additional insulators. The system is characterized by high rigidity, thanks to which it is possible to make external tilt and turn windows with dimensions of up to 1.4 x 2.5 m, and doors with dimensions of 1.4 x 2.8 m.
The system also has an anti-burglary variant in the RC2 and RC3 class. Various thermal insulation solutions are possible, with and without a polyethylene insert or an airgel insert. Very good parameters allow the use of ASP 75 in energy-saving construction. A wide range of fillings with a maximum thickness of 55 mm allows the use of triple glazing.

ASP 70 technical description
The ASP 70 system as an economical alternative to the ASP 75 system is intended for the construction of external building elements with very good thermal insulation. The profiles have a wider thermal break, which allows the use of triple-pane fillings up to 50 mm thick. This ensures high thermal insulation while maintaining a favorable price.
The system will meet the expectations of the most demanding customers who value economical and solid solutions. The possibility of using additional HI insulators in the central chamber formed by polyamide thermal breaks increases the thermal insulation of the structure. Applications of the ASP 70 system are analogous to those of ASP 75 , thanks to which they constitute proven, repeatedly tested solutions with high functionality.
