Termite-Proof uPVC Windows

uPVC windows are termite-proof — a real advantage over timber. Here's why.

Why termites don't touch uPVC

Termites eat wood; uPVC isn't a food source, so termite-proof windows aren't damaged by them the way timber frames can be. It's a core advantage over wooden windows.

What this means

Look for this

  • Not a food source for termites
  • No termite damage over the years
  • No pest treatment needed
  • A key advantage over timber frames

Built to suit your openings

In a climate where termites are a real concern for timber, uPVC simply sidesteps the problem — the windows aren't vulnerable at all.
