How Aluminium Windows Support Sustainability

When it comes to building sustainably, every material matters—especially the ones that define your space. At GREFET, we design aluminium window systems that don’t just look premium—they help reduce your environmental footprint without compromising performance.

Let’s explore how aluminium windows play a key role in green construction and conscious living.

Aluminium: Built for a Sustainable Lifecycle

Did you know? Aluminium is 100% recyclable without any degradation in quality.

Feature	Aluminium vs. Other Materials
Recyclability	✅ 100% infinite reuse
Durability	✅ Lasts decades
Maintenance	✅ Low maintenance
Weight	✅ Lightweight for transport
Energy Efficiency	✅ Excellent thermal insulation (with proper design)

GREFET windows are made using premium-grade recyclable aluminium, helping reduce construction waste and promote circular design.

Key Benefits of Aluminium Windows for Sustainability

✔ Energy Efficiency

GREFET window systems are engineered for high sealing performance, which results in:

• Reduced heat transfer
• Lower air leakage
• Reduced energy bills
• Less need for heating/cooling appliances

Bonus: More natural light = less need for artificial lighting during the day.

✔ Longer Lifespan = Less Waste

Unlike wood or uPVC that may degrade or deform, aluminium:

• Resists corrosion, termites, and warping
• Has a functional lifespan of 30+ years
• Minimizes the frequency of replacements
• Low maintenance, high value over decades

✔ Minimal Environmental Impact in Use

Aluminium windows are low on upkeep:

• No repainting or polishing required
• No need for chemical-based cleaners
• Just a wipe-down with a damp cloth
• Less chemical use = less harm to the environment

✔ Smart for Transport & Installation

Aluminium’s light weight + high strength = efficient logistics.

• Requires less fuel to transport
• Easier and faster to install
• Supports larger glass panels, enabling:

1. Better daylighting
2. Visual connection with nature

✔ Contribution to Green Certifications

Planning a LEED, IGBC, or GRIHA-certified project?

GREFET aluminium systems can contribute to:

• Energy optimization credits
• Indoor environmental quality
• Recycled content targets
