Is your home fitted with uPVC windows? Do you know when these windows were installed? Over the last decade double glazing technology has made huge advancements. With a focus on energy efficiency and home security; modern uPVC windows are considerably better quality now than ever before.

Double glazing originated in Scotland in the Victorian times as a way to insulate homes from the harsh weather conditions. The idea spread to the USA and became popular in the 1930s. It wasn’t until the 1970s that double glazing started to take off in the rest of the UK.
As a reaction to the Arab oil crisis, UK homeowners started to look for better ways to insulate their homes to reduce rising fuel costs and lower their dependence on foreign oil. In the 1970s double glazed windows were generally made with steel or timber frames. It wasn’t until the 1980s that uPVC became the material of choice for double glazing products.

At the beginning of the 1980s, uPVC windows began to rise in popularity. uPVC provided a low maintenance, durable alternative to maintenance heavy timber windows and more expensive aluminium alternatives. During the 80s and 90s many double glazing companies emerged to meet the rising consumer demand for uPVC windows.
By the turn of the century, uPVC windows were installed in almost all new build homes and were also the most popular choice for window replacements.

During the 21st century, strict energy efficiency and home insulation regulations have led to uPVC windows becoming greatly improved. Modern uPVC windows are now that much better than their predecessors to be almost unrecognisable with regard to quality, durability and improved aesthetic.
