Why We Make uPVC Double-Glazed Windows in Australia

It’s a question we get asked all the time at ThermaView. Especially, making uPVC double-glazed windows in Australia where the norm for windows is typically single-glazed aluminium or timber.

To put it simply, we’re aiming to make homes more comfortable through noise reduction, aesthetics and energy efficiency for homeowners.

So, we did our research. We trialed, built and tested windows in multiple different materials. From aluminium single-glazed to commercially framed double glazing. We researched what we would need to do to fabricate timber, steel, Alu-clad timber and even fiberglass frames but when all the numbers were crunched, the costs added up and the stats were in, there was just no match for the performance and cost effectiveness of uPVC.

This is why uPVC is the best-selling system in the world. We also need to be realistic, if we want to make homes more comfortable it stands to reason that we would use the best option available. Our mission is to bridge the gap between what the rest of the world is using and help Australia work out what the best option for them will be!

Our customers deserve the best home, a home that is comfortable. One without draughts in winter or extreme heat in summer. One that will require less energy to heat and cool, and with ThermaView windows and doors we can make this an achievable outcome.

Ultimately, we want to make homes in Australia more comfortable to live in, that’s why we make uPVC windows.
