Benefits of uPVC Wood Effect Sash Windows

At Roseview Windows, our wood effect sash windows are perfectly suited to both heritage and modern homes. Rose Collection wood effect sash windows are:

Woodgrain Finish – our sash windows are made by applying a heat bonding process on woodgrain foils and then attaching it to the uPVC surface. This creates an authentic finish & long-lasting colour, making them easy to maintain for decades. Gone are the days of sanding and re-painting. With just an occasional wipe-down, our woodgrain finish uPVC windows will stay looking as new as the day they were installed for decades to come.
A Rated Energy Efficiency – all three products from our Rose Collection have insulated frames & are double-glazed. Soon after installation, you will feel the benefits of having thermally efficient windows on your energy bills & pocket.
Available for Conservation Areas – our Ultimate Rose & Heritage Rose wood effect windows are so authentic that they are regularly approved for use even in the most sensitive conservation areas. Though you will still need permission from your local authority, they are designed and manufactured to truly replicate the traditional charm and character of original wood sash windows.
Highly secure – our wood effect uPVC windows are manufactured with the latest security features available for your safety. But when security is a particular concern, they can be upgraded to achieve Secured by Design accreditation as an advanced addition to your home security.
