UPVC Profile Door & Window and broken bridge aluminum doors and windows are the two most popular door and window products on the market. Which one is better, UPVC Profile Door & Window or broken bridge aluminum doors and windows?
1. UPVC Profile Door & Window. Plastic steel is the abbreviation of plastic steel profile, the main chemical composition is PVC, so it is also called PVC profile. The material has excellent performance, convenient processing and wide range of uses. Due to its physical properties such as rigidity, elasticity, corrosion resistance and excellent anti-aging properties, it is usually used as the best substitute for non-ferrous metals such as copper, zinc and aluminum. It is mainly used in the application of sliding, casement doors and windows, guardrails, pipes and ceiling materials in housing construction. The advantage is that the price is affordable, and the thermal insulation and sound insulation performance is good.
2. Broken bridge aluminum doors and windows. Broken bridge aluminum is the fourth generation product of doors and windows, plastic steel is the third generation product, and broken bridge aluminum is an upgraded product of plastic steel doors and windows. Broken bridge aluminum is also called thermal insulation broken bridge aluminum, thermal insulation aluminum alloy, broken bridge aluminum alloy, and broken bridge aluminum-plastic composite window. It has better performance than ordinary aluminum alloy profiles. Broken bridge aluminum-plastic composite doors and windows are made of heat-insulating aluminum profiles and insulating glass, imitating European-style structure, beautiful in appearance, and have the functions of energy saving, sound insulation, noise prevention, dustproof and waterproof.
3. The difference between UPVC Profile Door & Window and Broken Bridge Aluminum
(1) Plastic steel is UPVC profile with steel lining, and broken bridge aluminum is a metal profile cut off by aluminum alloy with heat insulation strips.
(2) The strength of plastic steel is not as high as that of broken bridge aluminum.
(3) Plastic steel will age and discolor over time (domestic plastic steel profiles generally cannot escape this fate), and broken bridge aluminum saves a lot of work in later maintenance.
In general, UPVC Profile Door & Window is better than broken bridge aluminum doors and windows, depending on the economic budget. Of course, if you want to pursue better thermal insulation and energy-saving effect, it is better to use plastic steel doors and windows.
