uPVC vs Aluminium

Introduction

Choosing the right windows for your home is no longer just about appearance-it is about comfort, energy savings, durability, and long term investment.  In cities across India, homeowners are increasingly asking: Should I choose uPVC windows or Aluminium windows?

Both are excellent options, but the right choice depends on your lifestyle, property type, budget, and design expectations.

Our expert recommendation

  1. uPVC for bedrooms and internal comfort.
  2. Aluminium for living areas and large openings.
  3. Timber for main entrance luxury.
 

This creates better performance, better aesthetics and better value.
