About:
- high performance and sustainable, pultruded GRP window system.
- Pultec® Fibre Reinforced Composite Windows are made from the same advanced composite-materials technology as the new Boeing 787
This is a technological breakthrough for windows, that has already swept through North America, where GRP Window sales now exceed $1,000,000,000 annually and are the fastest growing window type.
Pultec Windows are rapidly becoming the preferred choice in UK too, for both, commercial and housing projects, due to the myriad of advantages that they provide.
All have benefitted from the longer life, lower cost, better sustainability, lower U values and ZERO maintenance.
Pultec has been available in UK for over 12 years and was first used on Celtic Manor Hotel, South Wales, in 1998.
It has since been widely used on BSF and other schools programmes, student accommodation, care homes, social
housing, hotel chains, secure units, private apartment blocks, health and children’s centres and many others. Photos attached.
Summary of advantages:-
- “A” Rated in BRE Green Guide.
- 0.6 – 1.6 “U” values on the total window. 1.1 U value achieved with double glazing only, no need for triple.
- Saving both, cost and weight.
- BREEAM/Code for Sustainable Homes: 4½ extra credits potentially available.
- 75 years service life + 25 year product warranty.
- Fully BRE Certified and accredited (attached)
- 22% is from recycled source.
Product 100% recyclable upon disposal.
Impervious to the harshest weather, temperature extremes, salt/sea spray, acid rain, traffic grime and other air-borne pollutants. Effectively, indestructible by natural forces.
Price competitive with aluminium and ali/wood combination windows and doors – ‘Super’ competitive when comparing like-for-like U values.
Any RAL colour included (200+ options) – Dual colour also available.
Secured by Design accredited – Police preferred specification –
including both BS 7950 and PAS 23/24
Zero maintenance required – or to preserve guarantee – but optional maintenance or damage repair on site is easily undertaken. Thus ‘future-proof’.
