Polyframe has achieved the British Fenestration Rating Council (BFRC) Window Energy Ratings (WER) A to D on its internally beaded PVCu casement windows.
Polyframe underwent a stringent testing process to ensure the ratings are applicable on both the Eclipse and Esthetique PCE systems. This gives the consumer a choice of both traditional chamfered and decorative sculptured profiles when choosing energy efficient rated windows.
Increased environmental awareness from the consumer means people are excercising greater ‘greener’ consideration in their buying choices – and are seeking ways to make their lives more environmentally friendly. Home improvements are no exception, and a combination of increasing legislative pressure and ‘consumer pull’ in favour of WER windows. Once again Polyframe are ahead of the game and have invested time and resources in achieving the ratings.
