UNIDAS WINDOWS

A wooden window was and still is an INVESTEMENT IN THE FUTURE – WHY?

• Wooden windows have been proven to have the highest levels of thermal and acoustic insulation of all materials. What does this mean? With their good thermal qualities, wooden windows are almost exclusively used for low-energy buildings, “passive houses”.
• Wooden windows, unlike all other materials, have the ability to diffuse vapour. What does this mean? Wooden windows “breathe”. Only wooden windows allow excessive amounts of moisture in a room to be eliminated by diffusion, and when the air is dry in a room, the wood lets in the required amount of moisture from the outside, again by diffusion.This is called a “healthy climate exchange”.
• Nowadays, wooden windows are made of multi-layered bonded elements which increase their stability in terms of the distortion and cracking of the profiles,and they consequently achieve excellent mechanical properties.
• The treatment of the wooden elements is the same as the treatment of furniture, and the use of high quality, environmentally friendly, water-based varnishes provides lifelong protection and ensures easy maintenance. Wooden windows, with their antistatic properties, largely repel dust, while other materials, plastic in particular, with their electrostatic properties, strongly attract dust from the air.
• Once again you will be surrounded by a completely natural and non-harmful material in your home.
• Wooden windows burn, but more slowly than other materials (self-extinguishing), producing only a small amount of harmful gases.
• Purchasing a wooden window contributes to sustainable forestry , because wood is a renewable resource. The renewal and expansion of forests is a general trend of development and conservation of natural resources at the level of international organisations (Forest Stewardship Council – FSC, Germany).
