When deciding to replace windows or doors in a home, choosing the right material is crucial for the comfort and energy efficiency of the space. Two popular options are PVC and wood windows and doors. Each material has its distinct characteristics that should be considered before making a decision.

PVC Windows and Doors

Advantages:

1. Thermal and sound insulation: PVC is well-known for its excellent insulation properties, reducing heat loss and external noise.
2. Durability and weather resistance: PVC is resistant to moisture, corrosion, and damage, making it suitable for various climate conditions.
3. Easy maintenance: It doesn’t require painting or special treatments over time and can be easily cleaned with regular soap and water.

Disadvantages:

1. Appearance: Some people prefer the natural look of wood over PVC, which can appear more artificial. However, this preference is irrelevant for VefaSistem products, as we can easily provide a wood-like appearance for our PVC profiles with high-quality lamination in different shades.
2. Impact resistance: PVC can be more susceptible to physical damage from strong impacts or excessive pressure compared to wood. Nevertheless, this issue is irrelevant for VefaSistem products, as the aluminum Aluclip covering enhances the strength and durability of our products.
3. Environmental impact: The production process of PVC may involve the emission of toxic substances, and it is not biodegradable. However, at VefaSistem, we care about the environment. We use solar energy to power our automated factory for PVC, aluminum, and tempered glass systems. Additionally, we recycle production remnants, use recycled PVC profiles, and apply Green Line technology, which eliminates lead from the production process.

These aspects highlight our commitment to sustainability and to providing energy-efficient and eco-friendly solutions in the window and door industry.

Wood Windows and Doors

Advantages:

1. Natural aesthetics: Wood offers a natural beauty and warmth that can enhance the interior and exterior design of a home.
2. Durability: High-quality wood can be extremely durable and withstand the test of time.
3. Flexibility: It can be easily reconfigured or repaired if damaged.

Disadvantages:

1. Necessary maintenance: Wood requires periodic painting and treatments to maintain its integrity and appearance.
2. Sensitivity to extreme weather: Over time, wood can be affected by moisture, sun exposure, or rain.
3. Higher costs: High-quality wood can be more expensive than PVC, and maintenance costs can increase in the long term.
