What are the components of our PVC profile?

To create high quality PVC doors and windows at Eurowindows, we use high quality profiles and technology that ensures durability and efficiency. This process begins by selecting premium materials and continues with meticulous assembly, where each component serves a specific function to improve the overall performance of the window or door. Below, we detail the components of our PVC profile and its objectives:

1. Steel reinforcements

The first component of our PVC profile is the steel reinforcement incorporated within the profiles. These reinforcements are essential to provide structural stability and strength to the window or door assembly, ensuring that they can withstand adverse weather conditions and continuous use without warping.

2. PVC frame profile

The PVC profiles that will form the main structure of the window or door are selected. PVC is valued for its resistance to weathering and UV radiation, thermal and acoustic insulation, and its ability not to corrode or discolor over time. There are 2 types of profiles available, the one referring to the frame described here, which is fixed once installed, and the sash profile indicated in point 6, which will be the movable profile depending on the system chosen: sliding, folding or folding.

3. Multiple isolation chambers

PVC profiles are designed with multiple chambers that improve insulation and acoustics. These chambers act as barriers that minimize heat transfer and reduce outside noise, significantly contributing to the comfort of the indoor environment.

4. TPE gaskets

These TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) weatherstrips on the profiles are installed at the factory. These joints are crucial for ensuring air and water tightness, protecting the interior from inclement weather and helping to maintain the building's energy efficiency. They are also made of recyclable material. In the image we can see glazing joint, interior and exterior.

5. Steel fittings

Another component of our PVC profile is the steel hardware that is added to operate the opening, tilting and closing functions of the windows and doors. These components are selected for their durability and safety, providing robust mechanisms that resist wear with proven resistance to harsh climates and coastal regions. It also has effective multi-point closures that allow greater security and tightness for your windows.

6. PVC sash profile

The sash profile is assembled, which is the moving part of the window or door. This profile is also reinforced and contains all the insulation characteristics of the fixed frame, maintaining consistency in the thermal and physical performance of the assembly.

7. Glazed unit

Glass is another component of our PVC profile and is used to make the glazing of windows and doors. It can be single, double or triple, and with sealed air chambers to optimize insulation. Because it occupies most of the surface area of doors and windows, effective sound and heat insulation depends largely on a correct choice of the type of glass that must respond to the specific thermal and acoustic insulation or security needs.

8. PVC gasket

Factory co-extruded weatherstripping beading consists of a piece of PVC that secures the glass to the frame, placed around the glass to ensure a tight fit and improve the overall weathertightness and insulation of the window or door. The beadings are of variable thickness adapted to the chosen glazing, being narrower with double or triple glazing and wider with single glazing.

9. Color foil

PVC profiles are available in 14 different colors and textures according to the client's aesthetic preferences or architectural requirements. This step is performed prior to assembly to ensure uniform, long-lasting coverage.

10. Protective film

Finally, PVC profiles come with a factory-fitted protective film to minimize any scratches or imperfections during transit or assembly.
