AFFORDABILITY COMBINED WITH NEW TECHNOLOGIES

Solid wood, which for centuries held the primary position in the choice of materials for windows, has today had to compete with various alternative materials. While maintaining an affordable price level, the comparison with more technological materials has helped it grow well in performance aspects that were once neglected. Today it has reached an excellent level of TECHNOLOGY that combines very well with other factors including MATERIAL STABILITY and VERY LOW MAINTENANCE. It is not true that maintenance is only a drawback - sometimes, in case of breakage, scratches or wear, the possibility of maintenance avoids having to completely replace the window (e.g.: break-ins, animal scratches...). Above all, this choice of material can ECOLOGICALLY give a great help to our planet (...it's not just a figure of speech, see link...).

IF YOU CHOOSE WOOD, YOU MAKE THE MOST AFFORDABLE AND INTELLIGENT CHOICE FOR YOUR FUTURE AND YOUR CHILDREN'S

There are many wood species available, but let's look at some examples: Pine, Douglas Fir, Okoumé, Larch, Oak

Pine

Pine is the most widely used wood for wooden frames. Despite being the most economical, it has excellent insulation and stability characteristics. It is also recommended because, coming from controlled and extensive plantations, it makes a great ecological contribution to planet Earth.


Douglas Fir

Douglas Fir belongs to the same family as pine - softwoods that are therefore excellent insulators. Its fine, reddish and compact grain was fascinating for a long period in the past. Today this characteristic is less appreciated and the increased cost at origin has made its use less frequent.


Okoumé

Okoumé is light and pinkish mahogany-like, meaning similar to mahogany and therefore aesthetically appreciated. It lends itself well to various colorations. Of African origin without replanting, using this material goes against good ecological sense.


Larch

Excellent strength, durability and insulation, but stability is at risk, so this material is strongly recommended in the Laminated type.


Oak

Oak has always been considered one of the best materials for frames thanks to its noble appearance, great strength and durability. It is a prestigious and expensive wood, very often used in furniture as well. However, being a hardwood, unfortunately in terms of thermal insulation it has inferior characteristics compared to softwoods.

Our frames are made with quality wood and can be manufactured in Solid Wood, Finger Joint and Full-Length Laminated.

Solid Wood

Solid wood refers to when the material is used in its massive form, just as the tree produces it.


Finger Joint

Very widespread lately because it allows excellent mechanical performance at a contained cost. The material is composed of three layers glued in a sandwich and each layer in turn is composed of many pieces joined together in the typical gluing shape that gives it its name (joined like the fingers of two hands coming together), allowing optimization by choosing the aesthetically best parts to leave visible and generating as little waste as possible.


Full-Length Laminated

Three-layer type where the selection allows for very beautiful visible facades. A stable and robust structure that obviously implies an increase in the material price.

Visible grain, Solid color lacquer. The wood grain is always pleasant both when it shows through under a tinting of your chosen color, and when it is covered by lacquer because it still remains pleasant to the reflection and touch.

Insulated glass unit composed of double or triple glass for multiple types. Glass is today an element of great importance and has evolved significantly, allowing high-level insulation. It can be double or triple and always combined with Low Emissivity treatment. Furthermore, the composition allows you to choose various types of colors and opacities without losing the characteristic of excellent insulation.
