Among the many options available, uPVC (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride) has gained popularity due to its particularly low maintenance quality. At Shani Corporation Limited, our CORA uPVC profiles show why uPVC windows are known for their low maintenance requirements. Let’s take a closer look at why uPVC windows are low maintenance and why CORA profiles can offer you a windowless solution.
1.Durable material
One of the main reasons why uPVC windows are so low maintenance is the quality of the material. Unlike wooden windows, which are prone to cracking, rotting or peeling due to exposure to moisture and weather, uPVC avoids these problems. The equipment is designed to withstand extreme weather conditions, including heavy rain, sunlight and temperature changes. This durability means that uPVC windows, such as those made from CORA profiles by Shani Corporation Limited, can maintain their appearance and integrity without the need for frequent repairs or replacement.
2. Non-Porous Surface
uPVC’s non-porous surface is another key factor in its low-maintenance properties. Unlike wood, which absorbs moisture and can cause problems such as swelling or mould growth, uPVC does not absorb water. These properties help to prevent moisture-related problems such as peeling or rusting paint. Therefore, uPVC windows do not need to be sanded, painted or stained. A simple wipe with a damp cloth is usually enough to keep them looking clean and fresh. CORA materials provide easy-to-clean functionality, allowing homeowners to enjoy a beautiful, low-maintenance home.
3.Corrosion and Rot Resistant
uPVC is inherently resistant to corrosion and rotting, making it ideal for many spaces. Unlike metal windows, which can rust and deteriorate over time, uPVC will not rust or rot. This protection ensures that the windows retain their functionality and beauty without requiring much maintenance. Designed to deliver the best performance, Shani Corporation Limited’s CORA profiles provide a long-lasting window that can withstand the surrounding grass without the need for constant maintenance.
4. Colour Retention
Another advantage of uPVC windows is their colour retention. Unlike painted wood, which can fade and need to be repainted, uPVC windows are coloured throughout the product. This means the paint will not chip or peel and the window will retain its appearance over time. Available in a range of finishes and colours, Shani Corporation Limited’s CORA profiles eliminate the need for painting, further reducing maintenance.
5. Easy to clean
Cleaning uPVC windows is a simple process. The smooth surface of uPVC does not attract dirt or grime like other materials and any build-up can be easily removed with detergent and water. Unlike timber or metal frames which may require specialised cleaning products or techniques, uPVC windows are easy to maintain. CORA profiles are designed to be easy to use, allowing homeowners to keep their windows looking new without investing a lot of time or resources.
6. Weather Resistant
uPVC windows are designed to withstand a variety of weather conditions without damage. They are UV resistant, preventing discolouration and deterioration caused by prolonged exposure to sunlight. uPVC also does not expand or contract with temperature changes, ensuring the window continues to function well even in adverse weather conditions. This weather resistance means uPVC windows require less maintenance or repair, making them an ideal choice for low-cost window applications
7. Low Hardware Maintenance
The hardware used in uPVC windows is also designed to be low maintenance. The advantage of uPVC windows, such as those made from CORA profiles, is that they have a robust construction and low maintenance hinges. Unlike traditional window materials that can rust or loosen over time, uPVC window materials are durable, work well and require very little impact. An ideal, low-cost solution for homeowners looking for simplicity and durability. The material’s resistance to moisture, corrosion and rust, easy-to-clean surface and colour retention make uPVC an excellent choice for modern window designs. reducing the time and effort spent on repairs.
