uPVC Profile Price Points Explained

Why do uPVC profiles sit at different price points? Here's an honest explanation.

Our profile options and where they sit

We fabricate with four branded profiles — Gemplast, Crown, Baydee, and Eiti. They sit at different price points, and that's the honest reason to choose between them. Gemplast is where we start for budget-conscious jobs; Crown and Baydee sit in the middle; Eiti is our premium pick.

What this means for you

Look for this

  • Brand backing and supply chain differ
  • All four we use are branded systems
  • Price reflects positioning, not junk vs quality
  • Unbranded is a different category entirely
  • We match the profile to your budget

Price ladder, not a quality ladder

An important distinction: this is a price ladder, not a quality ladder. All four are quality branded systems with multi-chambered sections and steel reinforcement where the span needs it — none of them is junk, and none is the unbranded profile we'd warn you away from. Which one is 'best' still depends on your job, not on the price.

What we'd suggest

Within branded profiles, price differences come from brand positioning, backing, and supply chain — not from one being junk. The real quality cliff is between branded and unbranded profile, and all four of ours sit firmly on the right side of it.

Questions

Frequently asked

Why do uPVC profiles cost different amounts?

Within branded profiles, price reflects brand positioning, backing, and supply chain rather than one being junk. Gemplast, Crown, Baydee, and Eiti all sit at different points and all are quality branded systems.

Does a cheaper profile mean a worse window?

Not within a branded range. The real quality cliff is between branded and unbranded profile — that's the one that matters.

What's the difference between value and premium here?

Price and brand positioning. Both make sound windows when properly fabricated and fitted.
