Aluminum-framed windows offer a number of advantages for both interior and exterior use, including exceptional structural stability, acoustic and thermal insulation, and life span. The material is particularly favorable in terms of protection against burglary, as well as allowing a wide range of design and color options that vinyl frames and other materials cannot.
The Asia-Pacific region is expected to see the most growth for aluminum windows over the next six to seven years, according to Fortune Business Insights, due to increasing urbanization and the concomitant increase in construction activity. Demand will also grow in North America, driven by the need to maintain and replace aging buildings.
Aluminum is a popular choice for window frames in warmer climates because it conducts heat well, which helps to reduce heat in the home or other interior. For colder climates where this is not desirable, aluminum frames achieve energy efficiency by incorporating thermal breaks that prevent heat transfer – and thus energy loss – through the frame.
In any climate, aluminum is an attractive choice for being low-cost and virtually maintenance-free. A few wipe-downs a year are sufficient year, with special cleaners for colored aluminium surfaces. Modern aluminum windows are finished with a durable electrostatic paint process in a variety of colors for a traditional – or more eye-catching – appearance.
A wide range of aluminum window designs are available from Global Sources verified suppliers, including single-hung, double-hung and other types.
