* Environmentally Friendly
- Fiberglass features the lowest embodied energy (low energy
consumption in lineal production) when compared to
other common lineal materials while
providing the longest life expectancy. This has
led experts to recognize it as the most
environmentally friendly lineal production medthod.*
Fiberglass - is one of nature's strongest,
most durable and versatile building materials available.
* Warranty - All FIBERFRAME windows &
doors, under normal use and service, are warranted to
be free from defects in material and workmanship for
the lifetime of the product. The fiber glass
is warranted not to corrode, peel, rot, rust, warp,
bow, twist or blister. Remember, fiber glass is
used in boats, planes, bridges, and for industrial
flooring in highly corrosive atmospheres such as
chemical plants. Why? Because it's
practically indestructible. It has a greater tensile strength
than wood, vinyl or aluminum. That means if you
could safely stand four elephants on vinyl or 10
on aluminum, you could stand 20 elephants on pultruded
fiber glass!
* Fenestration - Fiberglass is a natural
insulator because it does not conduct heat and cold and it
doesn't expand or contract. In fenestration, most
window and door frame components have an
interface of different materials: glass on wood, glass
on aluminum or glass on vinyl. With
fiberglass, the components are identical which means
there is minimal expansion and contraction
and if there is any, the components expand and contract as a
unit. |
