Aluminium vs uPVC Windows: Which Is Better?

Both aluminium and uPVC have their strengths. Here's how to choose the right system for your project, climate and budget.

Why this matters

Choosing the right aluminium or uPVC system is about more than appearance — it directly affects daylight, ventilation, security and long-term maintenance. At Shriji Alu Fab, we guide every customer through profile, glass and hardware decisions based on the specific opening, orientation and use.

Things to consider

  • Site conditions, orientation and exposure to weather
  • Required ventilation and natural light
  • Type of glass — clear, frosted, toughened or laminated
  • Privacy, security and noise reduction
  • Maintenance expectations
  • Overall design language of the building

Our recommendation

Start with an on-site measurement and a quick consultation with our team. We'll suggest a system that balances appearance, performance and budget — and walk you through samples before fabrication begins.
