Climate protection: high-tech windows reduce CO₂.

Despite all the climate summits the nations around the world aren’t meeting climate targets. Should we wait for the politicians to get it right or take action ourselves? Rising temperatures as a result of CO₂ emissions are one of the biggest threats to our climate. Around 40 % of our oil and gas reserves are used to heat buildings. You can change that.

Our modern premium windows fulfill heating energy requirements and reduce the amount of harmful greenhouse gases being released into the air. This is one of the most important things we can do to protect our climate because keeping the air cleaner slows global warming. In other words, you can do a lot more to prevent climate change than you might have thought. New windows should be the first step to take in thermal refurbishment projects because they deliver immediately measurable results.

Our solution.

Our premium windows are high-tech products that satisfy modern requirements of heat insulation and therefore improve building energy efficiency. Numerically speaking: millions of window units are manufactured from our profiles each year. Their insulating properties save up to 20 liters of heating oil per window. In a renovation project, this can prevent up to half a tonne of CO₂ emissions per house annually.

 Our windows also conserve natural resources such as fossil fuels for future generations. With our modern windows you don’t just save heating costs, you also help to make the world a better place.

Another fact supporting the sustainability of modern plastic windows is that  4 % of the world’s oil reserves are used for plastics production but only 1% (one forty-thousandth) of that is accounted for by the PVC-U that is used to make windows. Lastly, a PVC-U window has a theoretical 40-year lifespan and can be recycled up to eight times.
