Waterproof uPVC Windows

uPVC windows resist water and don't degrade in the wet. Here's what makes them waterproof.

How uPVC handles water

uPVC is inherently water-resistant — it absorbs almost no water, so it doesn't swell, warp, or rot in wet conditions, unlike timber. Good sealing and drainage complete the picture.

What makes them waterproof

Look for this

  • Minimal water absorption (won't swell or warp)
  • Tight gaskets against driving rain
  • Drainage channels to clear water
  • No rot in wet conditions, unlike wood

Built to suit your openings

The profile provides the water resistance; fabrication adds the sealing and drainage that keep water out — together making windows that shrug off monsoon and humidity.
