Expansion & Contraction of Window profiles can lead to product deformation<\/strong><\/td>\nGerman Tech UPVC windows is manufactured from tropical formulation which makes it durable with minimal expansion and contraction<\/td>\nAluminium has very high thermal expansion coefficient as compared to UPVC, leading to product distortion if not manufactured and installed appropriately.<\/td>\nWood has inherent property to breathe \/ absorb moisture \/ expand & contract, eventually leading to distortion and gaps<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Insulation from Heat<\/strong><\/td>\nGerman Tech UPVC windows provides superior insulation to your home from outside heat as UPVC is a poor conductor of heat<\/td>\nAluminium (being a metal) is a good conductor of heat and therefore cannot provide insulation from heat<\/td>\nWood is a poor conductor of heat, however improper sealing & bending can allow heat to pass<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Low Maintenance<\/strong><\/td>\nGerman TechUPVC windows and doors require no painting, only routine cleaning<\/td>\nAluminium windows and doors may require periodic maintenance over long periods of usage<\/td>\nWooden windows need regular painting and polishing<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Low Embedded Energy<\/strong><\/td>\nGerman Tech UPVC Windows and doors are environment friendly as they require very less energy to convert from raw material to finished good.<\/td>\nAluminium window and door frames use large amount of energy in conversion<\/td>\nWooden windows and doors use tropical hardwoods.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Termite Resistance<\/strong><\/td>\nGerman Tech UPVC Windows and doors are not prone to termites<\/td>\nAluminium windows and doors do not attract termites<\/td>\nWooden windows and doors are prone to termites<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Resistance to Corrosion<\/strong><\/td>\nGerman Tech UPVC Windows do not rust or corrode due to inherent material characteristics<\/td>\nAluminium windows are prone to corrosion<\/td>\nWooden windows do not rust \/ corrode<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Fade Resistant\/UV Resistant<\/strong><\/td>\nGerman Tech UPVC Windows and doors are made of special UV resistant blend and therefore do not fade even after prolonged exposure to sun<\/td>\nAluminium windows are typically powder coated or anodized. The powder coating, If not of high UV resistance, shall discolour quickly.<\/td>\nWooden windows and doors start fading very soon ; require constant repolishing\/finishing<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Fire<\/strong><\/td>\nGerman Tech UPVC windows are Self Extinguishing and do not propagate fire<\/td>\nAluminium windows have very high melting temperature<\/td>\nWooden windows can catch fire easily<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Fire Escape<\/strong><\/td>\nUPVC windows can allow easy escape in case of fire; due to its lower softening temperature glass can be pushed out of the frame easily<\/td>\nAluminium & glass both have high MP and therefore does not assist in easy break away.<\/td>\nWood itself can catch fire very easily<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
